I’M ALL YOURS

[Scene: Beneath the Ironwood Mountains – The Gates of Varos]

FX: Echoes of dripping water, shifting stone, and distant voices in the dark 💧🪨

FX: A slow mechanical grind as a stone wall parts to reveal a glowing stairwell

[Visual: Elara walks through a stone tunnel lit by glowing blue veins of mana crystal embedded in the walls. Beside her, Kaelith's cloak trails across ancient sigils carved into the floor.]

Elara (thinking):

"They built a city down here… out of fear. Or maybe hope."

[Prince Auren] (stepping ahead):

"Welcome to Varos — the hidden breath of the rebellion. No Crown mage has ever set foot inside."

[Kaelith] (low voice):

"Let's not make this the first time."

[Scene: Underground City of Varos – Panoramic View]

FX: Choir-like hum, windless silence 🌌

[Visual: Massive underground caverns open wide. Crystalline towers rise from stone. Rope bridges connect floating platforms. People in gray robes kneel around a circular altar lit by violet fire.]

Elara (thinking):

"They're… praying?"

[Kaelith]:

"To what?"

A woman steps forward from the altar — tall, elegant, with jet-black braids and silver eye markings. She bows deeply.

[Priestess]:

"You have arrived… Lady of the Forge."

[Elara] (confused):

"…How do you know me?"

[Priestess] (smiling faintly):

"We've seen your rise in the sacred waters. Your power breaks bonds. Your choices bend fate. You are the living prophecy."

[Scene: Temple of Mirrors – Private Chamber]

Elara stands before a pool of still water. The priestess pours glowing liquid into the basin.

[Visual: Images form on the water — scenes from Elara's life: her awakening, battles, her sparing of Veyra.]

[Priestess]:

"You have done what none before you dared — you chose mercy when the world chose war."

Elara (thinking):

"They don't fear me. They… revere me."

[Scene: Kaelith and Auren in a side hallway]

[Kaelith] (cold):

"You didn't tell her they worship her like a goddess."

[Auren]:

"I didn't need to. She'd have come either way."

[Kaelith]:

"She's not ready for this."

[Auren] (serious):

"No one ever is — until the world kneels."

[Scene: Nightfall in Varos – Elara alone on a balcony over the crystal-lit city]

FX: Faint singing from below. People whispering her name like a prayer. 🎶

[Elara] (softly):

"…I'm not what they think I am."

Kaelith appears behind her, arms crossed.

[Kaelith]:

"No. You're more. Because you don't want to be worshipped."

She looks at him — uncertain.

[Elara]:

"What if I lose control again? What if the final seal breaks… and I become something they should have feared?"

[Kaelith] (quietly):

"Then I'll still be standing beside you."

Elara (thinking):

"Even if the world bows… he never will. And that's what keeps me sane."

[Scene: Meanwhile – Royal Palace, High Tower Chamber]

[Visual: Crown Prince Lucien stands at a black table. Veyra kneels, head bowed, face scarred.]

[Lucien]:

"So… she's made herself a saint now."

[Veyra] (weakly):

"She fights like a weapon… but she thinks like a queen."

[Lucien] (smirking):

"Then let's crown her."

He places a crimson mask on the table — shaped like a cracked flame.

[Lucien]:

"Send in the Red Judge. Let's see what happens when a god is put on trial."

[Scene: Back in Varos – Temple Steps]

FX: Bell tolls three times 🔔

A messenger rushes up the stairs.

[Messenger]:

"Lady Elara — word from the surface. The southern city of Torveil has fallen. The Crown didn't invade…"

[Messenger]:

"…They burned it. Every citizen. Everyone who once helped you."

Silence.

[Elara] (eyes closed, voice trembling):

"Then no more hiding."

She steps into the altar light. Her soulblade appears, calm and radiant.

[Elara]:

"Varos won't just survive. It will rise."
