Power Central Chamber

Borad's Vault

A circular chamber of oppressive majesty within the Borad's stronghold, its metallic walls lined with screens displaying surveillance feeds of Karfel and beyond. The air thrums with the pulse of energy conduits running along angled pillars, their green light casting jagged reflections across blackened alloy floors scuffed with previous betrayals. Overhead strips emit a low electric hum, while surveillance projectors and lethal delta-ray emitters lurk dormant in the ceiling grids. At the chamber's center, a dais of corrosion-streaked alloy holds Borad’s throne, flanked by terminals where Tekker and other subordinates kneel. Drenched in ozone and the metallic tang of old blood, the space compresses all sound into tense syllables—every voice echoes in deliberate pause, emphasizing the dictator’s power to silence without command.
