The cart entered the committed collection spur with thirteen minutes and fifty-eight seconds remaining. Its front brake dragged, but four assisted rear hubs continued turning beneath the covered bed. Alexandra's cut had loosened the guidance bridle enough for the broad gray draft beast to breathe and choose its footing, though the harness still connected it to six wheels that refused to stop.
Martin guarded the open rear with Breakwater Aegis. Katherine and Kinnami braced along the left side, while Alexandra and Kumoe watched the beast from the right. Rias and Cassandra crouched beside the exposed brake housing. Mera Sol kept herself between the route slate and Hask, the only other crew member still aboard. Elisebeth held Silent Stage around the slate's outgoing pulses without muting voices or wheels.
