front of a stage area with more regal? seating. There are 5 seats on stage: the center

the seat but not very visible Is a young adult male; to the left and right appear to be
an older man and woman, the parents; on the edges are two robed figures with
religious/prophetic look and accessories.
Voices are heard among the audience.

VOICE: But he looks so frail…
VOICE: (in response) Don’t speak that way!
Bottom 2/5-
Over shoulder of a man and woman. Central figure on stage is framed between them.
The two are more in silhouette. They are having a hushed conversation.
MAN: Is this really him?
WOMAN: That’s what happens when you shelter a kid his whole life…
MAN: I bet he can’t even lift a sword, let alone kill anything.
WOMAN: (Interrupting) They let us kill the monsters. He just gets to take the
credit.

Zoom in to the stage. Full view of priests, standing, again framing the young man.
The young man is now more visible. He is pale and thin with hollow and slightly
bulgy eyes and thin lips. However, he has a roman nose and strong jaw line. His
clothes are ill fitting but very proper. He appears to be bored and condescending.
The priest on the left is male and on the right is a priestess. They begins the speech:
TOGETHER: Welcome! Children of the Destined Return

PRIESTS: Ages ago, the dark kingdom of Tyrus rose. They held sway over the
masses with their powerful magic, which could transform man into mindless beast.
2. Bottom 3/5, Left 1/3
Illustrated scroll style continued. The symbol of the faith is on a flag over a child’s
bed.
PRIESTS: But for every evil in the world a power of good is created to defeat
it. So was born the child of the Desrel and Tinerus, the first of the Destine line.

Style back to normal. Over man and woman’s shoulders again, framing priests with
action and speaking poses. Silhouettes in profile, like they are whispering.
WOMAN: The prophecy… that has failed throughout the ages.
MAN: Until today. The day the stars truly aligned.
WOMAN: I’d love to watch this failure firsthand.
MAN: Who knows? You hack enough times at a tree, and someday it’ll fall
down.

length red hair and angular chin with heart shaped face. She has freckles and light
scarring on her nose. Her eyes are green. MC has scruffy facial hair and a boxy face.
His nose is slightly crooked from an old injury, but it is not overly noticeable. His
hair is light and his eyes are light brown. The MC is ashamed with a hint of a snicker,
and the woman is holding back a devilish grin.

1. Top 2/3, Left Half
Waist up shot of Woman. Slight smirk, strong posture. Attire is fitting of a warrior
meant for quick maneuvering. She has thick leather in places, but the clothing does
still fit and accentuate her athletic form.
WOMAN: Heather Bonnum, Scout Troops
2. Top 2/3, Right Half
Waist up shot of Man. Head held high, but still bashful. Attire is similar to Heather,

joints. He is athletic, but less obvious.

ARDENT: Continue Prophet Irro. Tell them. How will I slay this great evil?
3. Middle 3/5, Right 3/5
Irro, with his composure back to that of a charismatic orator.
IRRO: Ah yes, the prophecy states that it will be my your hands that the great
evil of Tyrus will fall. But even the strongest hands fail without the strength of the
body, heart, and mind. So in this quest, the prophecy calls upon these valiant
warriors…

The journey begins.
2. Full Page
Landscape in profile, grassy with occasional trees. Ardent in front. Lyra in the back.
Heather in front of Nathan. Simple and small, slightly silhouette.
ARDENT: How long til we get there?
HEATHER: Still all its cracked up to be, hero?
LYRA: Be patient, Ardent. I see that there will be further trials, opportunities
to grow stronger. The way is not easy, but there is no honor in taking the simple
road.
ARDENT: Don’t lecture me. I can take on anything the fool Tyrus can throw at
me.
NATHAN: What about a beautiful seductress who can petrify you with a wink
of the eye? Or giant war machine? That shoots magical fire that never misses?
HEATHER: Or an army of seductive war machines that shoot fire from their
breasts?
NATHAN & HEATHER: HAHA!
ARDENT: I would see through her façade and stab her eyes out. And a war
machine can’t hit what it can’t see. Not every battle is won through force.
LYRA: See, you underestimate him. I know the hero will prevail.
HEATHER: Kiss ass…
NATHAN: But you forgot about the hot, busty war machines, I think I’d take a
look through their facades. Haha!
HEATHER: Ahem!
NATHAN: Umph!
LYRA: How dare you!
ARDENT: Ha! You mock, but do you have the strength to back it up?
