Tin Man's White Energy Pulse

Tin Man’s defensive energy pulse is the event’s pivotal moment—a narrow ring of white energy that radiates outward, destroying the Romulan warbird and crippling the Enterprise. The pulse is not a weapon in the traditional sense but a reflexive act of self-preservation, triggered by Tam’s telepathic warning. Its aftermath leaves the bridge in chaos, with failing systems and a crew scrambling to assess the damage. The pulse is both a revelation of Tin Man’s power and a turning point in the mission, as diplomacy gives way to survival.
