Starship Medical Bay

Regen Bay

A cramped medical alcove wedged between banks of flickering consoles and emergency bulkheads, its walls lined with regeneration restraints and sterile lighting that pulses in sync with the ship’s failing systems. The air hums with the scent of ozone and antiseptic, thick with the metallic tang of stress. Tala lies supine on a biobed, cables snaking from her temples to a monitor that spits out erratic vitals in jagged green spikes. Herrick looms over her, hands gripping the restraints’ edges, his knuckles white as he fights the ship’s tremors. The bay’s single viewport offers a grotesque view of the Charybdis nebula’s swirling vortex, its gravity tugging at the vessel like an impatient predator.
