Anteroom to Salia's Quarters

A narrow, adjacent interior that opens into Salia's private chamber, this anteroom functions as a liminal staging space where ceremony and private grief collide. The threshold glows with a bluish forcefield whose hum punctuates hushed commands; footsteps and formal voices harden the air as Worf and sentries militarize the doorway. Anya steps from this interior with quiet resolve, turning personal farewell into ritualed transfer of duty. The space registers tactile touches, lowered gazes, and the mechanical sigh of the field collapsing, carrying emotional weight as characters move from protected intimacy into irrevocable departure.
