Inner Vision

A psychic chasm where time fractures and perception unravels, suspended between prophecy and collapse. The space breathes with the weight of collapsing sand timers and melting candles, their wax pooling in shared patterns that mark the end of measured moments. Glassy fragments of broken timekeeping devices float like shards of a dying star, each one a captured second streaking toward annihilation. Shadows twist into mocking laughter at Aris’s hands, his scorn echoing through the chamber as the Trickster’s acrobatic grace curdles into spasmodic collapse. Panna’s ritual circle—an arrangement of relics tuned to the planet’s psychic pulse—ticks louder as the Mara’s influence seeps through, turning the sanctum into a chamber of unavoidable witness. The Doctor and Todd stand frozen, their vision sharp enough to taste the ozone and copper tang of impending doom, powerless against the forces tightening their grip on the Kinda’s sacred space.
