Colony Defensive Perimeter

Main Gate

Under a blanket of gray twilight, the Main Gate stands as the frayed edge of containment. Heavy metal grilles soaked in rain glisten under yellow-tinged floodlights while the fractured remains of Beresford’s laser grid flare and die along the iron bars. Commander Thackeray’s boots crunch into frost-whitened gravel beside blast-marked pillars still warm from Krynoid ichor, the scent of burning circuitry and rotting vegetation clinging to the air. In the distance, the once-coordinated pulse of starship engines dissolves into panicked scatter, and the deep thrum of terrors drawing nearer pulses past the gate like a second heartbeat.
