Colony Security Klaxon

A sharp, pulsating alarm that cuts through the Medical Centre’s sterile air as another assault darkens the colony’s sky. The klaxon’s rhythmic blare signals imminent danger, overriding Plantagenet’s political accusations and forcing Brazen, The Doctor, and the others to abandon their disagreement. Its urgency underscores the colony’s fragility, its sound growing more insistent as the horizon blackens with bombardment.
