Nunton Corridor

Military-grade corridor bathed in the pool of emergency lighting that turns the space into fractured pools of amber and crimson. The air carries the sharp ozone tang of rapid movement, with distant radio chatter clashing against the rhythmic clank of boots on metal gratings. Narrow enough that two figures stand shoulder-to-shoulder without crowding, the corridor runs straight until terminating at a projected symbol on the far wall—a target half-lit by the emergency strips. Emergency status panels pulse warnings that the Doctor ignores, stepping back to let Spandrell test the staser's limited range. The walls bear scuff marks where equipment straps have dragged, each scrape a layer of use recording past emergencies.
