Exiting Accretion Disc

The chaotic boundary layer between the Argo’s normal space and the forming liquid planet, a swirling, unstable disc of half-formed matter and distorted spacetime. Turbulent eddies of viscous proto-material stretch and twist in the slingshot’s wake, their surfaces glistening under the ship’s failing lights. Gravity here stutters, jerking the Argo from one unstable path to another as it plows through the birth-throes of a world. The air thrums with the ship’s final, throttled engines, then falls suddenly quiet as thrusters cut out—leaving only the sickening sensation of freefall between the half-real structures of creation. Heat radiates from the churning core ahead, where raw energy refuses to coalesce.
