Steep Hill

Riker and Worf haul themselves up the steep hill's rugged incline during reconnaissance of the nearby Borg compound. Loose gravel shifts under boots, demanding steady grips and labored breaths on the alien planet's unforgiving surface. The crest offers a clear overlook of enemy patrols below, but dense brush conceals three Borg drones who spring an ambush, turning vantage into vulnerability amid sudden phaser fire and tactical scramble.
