A tactical protocol embedded in the ship's systems, designed to initiate irreversible annihilation of the alien object latched to the airlock's exterior. The sequence activates through manual command, overruling containment protocols with a single decisive command. Dymond initiates the protocol under mounting pressure, the interface flashing warnings as Tryst warns against premature destruction that could compromise their retrieval plan.
