The limestone slab serves as an improvised platform for the TARDIS’s landing on Skaro’s jagged terrain. Its fragile stability becomes a physical metaphor for their precarious position—the Doctor uses it to leap down, while Romana treads carefully along its uneven edge, both forced to engage directly with the planet’s hostile environment.

Before: An intact but uneven geological formation on a desolate planetary surface, supporting the TARDIS’s landing struts without structural compromise

After: Mildly compressed by the TARDIS’s weight, its surface marred by shallow indentations from the Doctor’s jump and Romana’s cautious steps
