Clouded Alien Planet Surface

A shadowed, clouded alien world sprawls beneath misted skies where an away team moves across uneven ground toward a covert launch site. The air tastes of ozone and static; distant flora and jagged outcrops catch the sickly glow of a mechanical probe as it arcs skyward. Seconds later the probe’s detonation in orbit vomits a pulse that cripples a Romulan cruiser and molecularly disintegrates a transport. Radios spit with broken syllables, suits flicker with failing systems, and the terrain compresses into a single urgent choice: retrieve the team or preserve the ship. The planet operates as a remote trigger point whose hidden defenses and inscrutable technologies escalate tactical, moral, and geopolitical stakes.
