Object
Worf's Flashlamp
A heavy, high-intensity handheld flashlamp with a rugged metal body and a focused, blinding beam designed for deep-dark exploration. Scuffed plating and a reinforced bezel suggest repeated tactical use; a wrist strap and thumb switch allow single-handed operation. WORF raises it with deliberate force, the cone of light slicing across the ancient bridge and revealing the hollowed sockets and brittle bones of a slumped crewman, forcing Picard and Data into immediate, reverent silence.
