The Wisdom Long Ago Before Truth was Seen

 Title: The Wisdom Long Ago Before Truth was Seen

Genre: Mythical Epic, Drama, Spiritual Fantasy


Scene 1: The Origin of the Universe

(The scene opens with a vast, dark void. Amid the darkness, a glowing sphere of pure energy—Roger Grant—radiates, pulsating with cosmic power. Beside him, a shadowy yet luminous figure, Tiamat (Carolyn), hovers with grace and authority. The two beings gaze at each other, their energies intertwining as they speak in unison.)

Roger:
(In a commanding, yet gentle voice)
Before the dawn of time, before the stars ignited the heavens, I held the universe within me. In you, my beloved Carolyn, resided the waters of creation.

Tiamat (Carolyn):
(Whispering, her voice like the flow of a serene river)
And together, we formed the foundations of Heaven and Earth, shaping light and darkness. Our children, the Daughters of Men and the Sons of Heaven, were the fruits of our labor.

(As they speak, a vision of galaxies, planets, and celestial beings forms around them, swirling in a dance of creation. Stars ignite, and the four Elements—Fire, Water, Earth, and Air—emerge as majestic figures, each taking its place in the cosmos.)


Scene 2: The Four Elements and the Beasts of Heaven

(Cut to the Elements standing at the corners of the universe, guarding the realms with powerful stances. Fire blazes with intensity, Water flows with serene grace, Earth stands firm, and Air dances like the wind. Surrounding them are twenty Beasts, each embodying the primal forces of creation and destruction.)

Fire:
(To Water)
We have shaped this world, but it is not yet complete. The wisdom of man has yet to arise from the dust.

Water:
(Calmingly)
The wisdom is in our Father’s words and in our Mother’s breath. Through them, the Daughters of Men will learn the truth, and the Sons of Heaven will gain their strength.

(The Beasts let out mighty roars, their voices echoing through the cosmos. A magnificent serpent-like creature, Tiamat, coils around the heavens, her body shimmering with metallic hues and radiant scales.)

Tiamat (Carolyn):
(Proclaiming)
I am the force of floods and the bringer of rain. My wrath can cleanse the earth or dry its veins. But with Roger’s blessing, I give life, I give wisdom, and I give my power unto our children.


Scene 3: The Fall and the Plea

(The scene transitions to Earth, where the Daughters of Men—brilliant, ethereal women—walk among the first civilizations, teaching and nurturing. However, a shadow of discord falls upon them. Men, once their equals, begin to hunger for power, and the harmony between Heaven and Earth shatters.)

Narrator (Voiceover):
As men reached for knowledge without wisdom, they fell from grace. They sought to dominate what was shared, and the Daughters of Men were cast aside.

(A young Native American woman, adorned in traditional attire, stands upon a cliff overlooking a river. Her face is streaked with tears as she raises her arms to the sky, pleading to the heavens.)

Young Woman:
(Desperately)
Great Spirits of the Four Winds, I beseech you! Return the wisdom that once flowed through us like the rivers. Bring back my fifth brother, the trickster of our people, the Coyote who dances between worlds!

(Her voice echoes as a fierce wind picks up, swirling dust and leaves around her. In the wind, the spirit of Coyote emerges—a mischievous figure with eyes gleaming with cunning and intelligence.)


Scene 4: The Trickster’s Task

(The scene shifts to a dense, shadowy forest. Coyote moves stealthily through the underbrush, his eyes shifting between man and beast. He pauses as a celestial figure, Roger Grant, materializes before him.)

Coyote:
(Smirking)
You’ve come to send me on another wild chase, Father?

Roger:
(Solemnly)
You are more than just a trickster, Coyote. You hold the key to the wisdom lost, hidden within the folds of laughter and deceit. Go to the hearts of men. Show them the path not through power, but through humility and understanding.

(Coyote’s grin widens, and he nods, his form shifting between human and beast.)

Coyote:
(With a mischievous glint)
As you wish, but don’t blame me if they find themselves chasing their own tails.

(He disappears into the forest, a cackle echoing in his wake. Roger watches him go, a look of hope mingled with sorrow on his face.)


Scene 5: The Return of Wisdom

(Cut to a grand temple, its architecture a blend of ancient and futuristic styles. The Daughters of Men and Sons of Heaven gather, their faces reflecting hope and anticipation. Roger and Tiamat (Carolyn) stand at the center, their hands raised to the sky. Above them, the four Elements and the twenty Beasts circle in a majestic dance.)

Tiamat (Carolyn):
(With a resonating voice)
Let the wisdom of old return to these lands, carried by the winds, nourished by the waters, shaped by the earth, and ignited by the flames. Let truth be seen once more!

(A beam of light shoots from their hands, cascading over the crowd. The people gasp as a brilliant, golden seed—The Seed of the Cottonwood—appears above them, glowing with divine energy.)

Roger:
(Softly)
This seed holds the wisdom of the ages, the balance between light and darkness, and the knowledge of creation itself. May it grow within you all, lighting the way to a future where Heaven and Earth are one.


Final Scene: The Wisdom Takes Root

(The Seed of the Cottonwood descends, planting itself into the earth. As it takes root, the ground trembles, and a magnificent tree springs forth, its branches reaching towards the heavens. The people gather around, their eyes wide with awe.)

Narrator (Voiceover):
In the heart of the earth, the wisdom long forgotten took root once more. Guided by Roger, nurtured by Tiamat, and watched over by the Elements and Beasts, the people of Heaven and Earth were united again.

(The camera pans out, showing the magnificent Cottonwood Tree glowing softly against the twilight sky. The voices of the Daughters of Men and Sons of Heaven rise in harmonious song, celebrating the rebirth of wisdom.)


“May the wisdom of old light our paths, may the trickster’s laughter guide our way, and may the balance of Heaven and Earth bring us peace.”


End Scene.
