Second Train-Tunnel Entrance (Tunnel End to Command Center)

Indy crouches at the tunnel end among stacked supplies to silently overlook the command center. A second train-tunnel entrance—a shadowed, rectangular maw flanked by concrete with tracks vanishing into darkness—yawns nearby; the approach is cloaked in shadow with a stenciled heavy door reading "DANGER - MUNITIONS." The position offers lines of sight to the Ark ritual hub, potential escape routes, and explosive threats, creating high tension under the midnight raid.

Silent Recon: Tabernacle and the Munitions Door

The tunnel end is Indy’s point of approach and the immediate concealment he uses to break cover. It frames the threshold from unseen infiltration into the exposed command court, providing a cramped, shadowed route for observation and entry.

Atmosphere

Shadow-cloaked and claustrophobic, a compressed space that intensifies the need for silence and swift movement.

Functional Role

Approach/concealment route — the staging area for Indy’s reconnaissance and potential entry point into the command center.
