A NEW WORLD episode 2 : A NEW DAY Page #8

Season #1 Episode #2
Synopsis: The story of "The Lost Book of Enki" revolves around the ancient Sumerian gods known as the Anunnaki, who arrived on KI to mine gold and were responsible for creating a civilization. Enki, one of the Anunnaki, is the main protagonist and is depicted as a wise and cunning god who often clashes with his jealous and power-hungry half-brother Enlil. Enki is also enamored with his half-sister Ninmah, who is envious of her brothers' power and resents being left out of their inner circle. The story follows Enki's attempts to navigate the complex power dynamics of the Anunnaki while also trying to protect his new creation from Enlil's wrath. A true template of human existence exploring the darkest recesses of the human psyche, offering a chilling glimpse into the depths of our collective unconscious. An admission detailing the dangers of jealousy and envy, the ethical implications of playing god, and the consequences of seeking power at all costs.

Scene 67

A dimly lit chamber, KI.SHAR.GAL, wearing a red dress with a purple cape and a purple crown and no footwear, sat on the throne, her eyes glazed over as she muttered to herself incoherently. Surrounding her were a group of advisors, their faces etched with concern.

EA (voiceover):

AFTER AL.AM WAS BORN, SHE HAD A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN THAT SPIRALED INTO AN UNSTABLE MIND. 5 SHAR LATER SHE HAD A SON. KI.SHAR.GAL, CONSUMED BY HER MADNESS AND GREED, DECLARED THAT ONLY THE OFFSPRING OF "THE DOUBLE SEED" OF ROYAL BLOOD WOULD BE ELIGIBLE TO ASCEND TO THE THRONE, REGARDLESS OF BIRTH ORDER OR OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS DECREE SENT SHOCKWAVES THROUGHOUT THE KINGDOM, AND MANY WHISPERED BEHIND CLOSED DOORS OF THE QUEEN'S DETERIORATING MENTAL STATE.

KI.SHAR.GAL (ELITE English accent)(wildly gesturing): THE DOUBLE SEED! THE DOUBLE SEED! IT MUST BE SO! ONLY THEY CAN LEAD US TO GLORY! ONLY THEY CAN LEAD US TO THE STARS!

One of the advisors, a man with greying hair, stepped forward tentatively.

ADVISOR (Spanish accent) : MY QUEEN, WE MUST CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH A DECREE. IT GOES AGAINST TRADITION AND COULD CREATE UNREST AMONG THE PEOPLE.

KI.SHAR.GAL (ELITE English accent) (glaring): I AM THE QUEEN! MY WORD IS LAW! THE DOUBLE SEED SHALL INHERIT THE THRONE, AND THAT IS FINAL!

The advisor bowed his head and stepped back, his face troubled. As KI.SHAR.GAL continued to rant and rave, the other advisors exchanged worried glances, wondering what would become of the kingdom under such unstable rule. (The actress will ad lib her ranting and raving.)

The camera opens to a desolate landscape, The sky above is dark, and the biting cold seems to penetrate through every layer of clothing. Suddenly, the horizon begins to glow, and a harsh, glaring light begins to spread across the sky. The camera pans down to show a thermometer rising rapidly in the heat, before cutting back to the desolate wasteland.

The once lush and verdant land of NEVERMORE is now barren and desolate. The sky is a sickly shade of yellowish-brown, and the air is thick with smog and ash.

BUT THERE WERE THOSE WHO REFUSED TO GIVE UP HOPE, WHO WORKED TIRELESSLY TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THE CRISIS AT HAND.

Then camera cuts to a group of engineers and technicians, (no wings and no tails) frantically working on a complex machine. The hum of machinery fills the air as they race against time to complete their task.

EA (voiceover) :

MANY WORKED, DAY AND NIGHT, DRIVEN BY A FIERCE DETERMINATION TO SAVE THEIR WORLD. THE FATE OF NEVERMORE HUNG IN THE BALANCE, AS ITS PEOPLE STRUGGLED AGAINST IMPOSSIBLE ODDS TO SURVIVE.

Scene 73
