The air around the crew grew heavier as they stood at the edge of the crater. Below them, the vast pit stretched into the depths of Krelos-9, illuminated by dark Ether energy pulsing from its core. It wasn't just a mining operation, it was something alive, twisted and corrupted by the Ether they had come to stop. Tendrils of dark energy snaked up from the depths like living shadows, and the oppressive weight of it pressed down on Ethan and his team.
Ethan stared into the crater, his eyes narrowing as he took in the scene below. "That's where the heart of the operation is," he said, gripping the hilt of his Radiansaber. "If we can destroy the conduits feeding the harvesting unit, we can stop the flow of dark Ether and cripple whatever the Empire is planning."
