Her motions had become sluggish, wobbling to either side like some kind of zombie. The numbing cold of the ship and the disentegrating effects of such extreme exposures to radiation were having their effect on her body. There was no saving her anymore, she was going to die to save her friends.
Umbra looks through the camera feeds and sees Danu... And then his eyes glow light blue for a moment.
"Wh... What..."
He stumbles off down the halls, trying to get to the reactor room before it's too late...
// gonna sleep now... I'll continue what's left tomorrow.
Danu continued her zombie-like march, searching for a steel plate or anything really that could fill the hole and tolerate the thermal and pressure conditions even if only temporarily. Hopefully the others had safely been returned to the village, winter wonderland it was becoming from the ship's uncontrolled terraforming.
By now it had hopefully begun its ascent, the terraforming activity stopped in favor of diverting all power to main propulsion. But with the reactor so badly damaged, there was a very real chance it would lose power and fail to reach orbit, falling back to the surface as an unpowered and radioactive hulk that would cause significant fallout.
The reactor room had been sealed off by a bulkhead door to try and contain the coolant while she searched for repair materials, and she seemed to glow faintly to light her path. Her body was already dead, she was moving by willpower alone now.
Feel free to PM me if anything is broken
