OPENING SCENE
Script – Scene 1: The Beginning Before Time
FADE IN.
Darkness. Endless. Infinite. Then—A single ripple in the void.
A low, resonant hum grows into a symphony of celestial sound—not music, but the very vibration of the cosmos forming itself.
A soft glow in the void expands into a great golden sea of stars.
NARRATOR (V.O.)
“Before there was time, there was only the breath of the infinite. Creation had no ruler. Thought had no master. And love… love was not yet a sin.”
A vast ethereal city emerges from the darkness, floating between stars—The Celestial Halls, a place of luminous energy, where pure intellect shapes reality.
CUT TO—
A great womb-like structure, deep in the abyss—The Voidborn Domain, where cosmic beings, shrouded in liquid shadow, weave new worlds with their very breath.
Between them, a thin silver bridge of light and darkness intertwined.
And on that bridge—two figures step toward each other.
Oru & Okan.

CUT TO BLACK.
Script – Scene 2: Love is Not Allowed
The two gods stand together on the bridge, staring into each other’s eyes—her, a goddess of darkness and life; him, a god of light and order.
OKAN (softly)
“We were not meant to meet.”
ORU (a breath, almost a whisper)
“Then why do I know you?”
A pause. The bridge shakes slightly—as if the universe itself is warning them.
OKAN (looking at her hands, seeing energy ripple between them)
“They will call us heretics.”
ORU (smiling, stepping closer)
“Let them.”
She touches his face. The moment their skin meets, a pulse of pure creation ripples outward, shattering the sky.
The Celestial Halls and the Voidborn Domain tremble.
CUT TO BLACK.

EPISODE 3: “The Fall of the Lovers”
Script – Scene 5: The Betrayal
A dark chamber, cold and vast, filled with the Celestial Kings and the Voidborn Mothers, their bodies shifting between forms, neither fully real nor entirely imagined.
At the center—Chronos and Sophia stand in judgment.
CHRONOS (firm, unshaken)
“They have broken the sacred laws.”
VOIDBORN MOTHER (whispering, but the words echo like thunder)
“She has created what should not exist.”
The verdict is unspoken, but absolute.
CUT TO—
Okan, standing alone on a vast platform, the stars bending away from him.
The Celestial Kings extend their hands, golden chains of pure time wrapping around him, pulling him away.
CUT TO—
Oru, screaming in the abyss, her body breaking apart into tendrils of shadow and flame as she is cast into the void.
CUT TO—
Barbelo. A child, standing between worlds, reaching for hands that are no longer there.
Then—they shatter into dust.
The universe falls silent.
