Location
Cargo Hold
Pallet 67
A cavernous cargo hold bathed in harsh fluorescent light, its metal walls painted institutional gray and lined with stacked bulk containers. The air hums with the metallic groan of stressed bulkheads and the acrid tang of ozone from failing systems. Cargo straps dangle from the ceiling, swaying slightly as the ship’s artificial gravity fluctuates. The space is cavernous enough to echo the Mandrels’ shrieks as they drag screaming passengers between the towering containers, their movements lit by flickering emergency bulbs that cast long, shifting shadows. Blood pools darken the grated floor plates near overturned freight crates, evidence of the struggle that has already taken place. The confined geometry traps sound, amplifying the chaos into a nightmarish cacophony of metal banging, curses, and screams.
