ELARA

(To herself)

Once there were four children who found a magic wardrobe...

Suddenly, a loud banging on the door interrupts her. Elara quickly hides the book under her pillow and
turns off the light.

Kaelen stands outside Elara's door, holding a flashlight. He shines the light into the apartment, but
Elara's room is dark.

Open up!

getting louder and louder.

INT. ELARA'S APARTMENT - LATER

You know what this means.

Elara stands in the city square, surrounded by a crowd of people. She is about to be executed for her
crime.

(To the crowd)

I believe in the power of stories. They can teach us about ourselves and the world around us.

The crowd is silent. They have never heard anything like this before.

EXT. CITY SQUARE - CONTINUOUS

Suddenly, a figure emerges from the crowd. It is the Bibliophile, dressed in a long black cloak.

We will not let them silence us!

outnumbered.

The power of stories is too great to be extinguished. We will fight for our right to read!

The rebels raise their fists in the air, united in their cause.

and for the freedom of all stories.

We have made a mistake.
