Bushes at the Cliff Edge

A tangle of dense vegetation grows at the cliff's edge, forming a natural barrier between the path and the sheer drop below. The bushes consist of wiry stems and broad, waxy leaves that strain against the Doctor's coat as he improvises his matador-style deflection. Emilia flattens herself against them in panic, feeling the brittle branches snap under the Ogri's weight as it is sent crashing into the ravine.
