Humor, mystery, and the supernatural abound in this tale of a young girl in an old English castle. Excerpt: FADE IN: EXT. MID-EASTERN TEMPLE - NIGHT CAMERA PANS across Mid-eastern landscape and comes to a temple on a hillside. At a closer shot, we discover a group of nervous people in first century dress surrounding an OLD PROPHET with a huge white beard. Behind them sprawls a vast ancient city in the style of Babylon. Flickering torches and candles, along with a striking full moon, render the scene mysterious and exotic. The people surrounding the old man are frantically asking him questions. MAN 1 What will happen to us, holy one? WOMAN Will anyone save us? MAN 2 The invaders are at the gates! There is no time! WOMAN The sacred relic! It musn’t fall into the wrong hands! CLOSE SHOT: OLD PROPHET He is the classic image of a wise and serene figure, full of deep knowledge and goodness. PROPHET My children, be calm. All will be well. Though our lives may end soon, we must trust that it is written and there is One who knows what must be done.
