Iceworld Lower Level Catwalk

A narrow metal grating walkway suspended in the frozen outpost's lower levels, its open-grid steel slats clattering underfoot. The flimsy structure trembles as Glitz rushes across it, his boots ringing sharply against the vibrations. Its exposed position makes it a perfect vantage for the laser dragon to target, the monster's searing beam punching clean through a nearby bulkhead and sending embers drifting down. The Doctor and Glitz freeze mid-crossing, their options evaporating as the catwalk's fragility leaves no room for error.

Dragon and Glitz flee laser dragon pursuit

Before: A sturdy but narrow metal walkway in need of maintenance, spanning a chasm between service tunnels in the lower levels
After: Still intact but perilously close to the dragon's line of fire, its destabilized state heightening tension as a death trap
