Scene One: Shadows and Sovereigns
“The Vault doesn’t speak. But it remembers who lied last.”
🛸 Location
INT. VEILED VAULT — EMBER SPA LOUNGE — MIDNIGHT PURPLE GLOW
A flute-jazz fusion track plays. Smoke curls. Every glass catches starlight. Lanterns swing low. The scent of starlight dumplings, moon-mint, and hot ink fills the air.
🎭 Characters
- Shad’ra: The Sovereign Ninja, unreadable and still
- Auraya: The Flame Priestess, silent with dangerous clarity
- Kyru: Talking foxhound, trickster seer
- Seliyah: Vault Queen of Valen Myrr, sovereign of scent and vow

KYRU (grinning, flicking his flame-tipped ear)

AURAYA (sips the moon-mint steam)
Guilt left me years ago. I only drink with ghosts now.

SHAD’RA (still as stone)
He’s not with them. He’s from the lower rings. Vault-born. Silent contract.

Each of you is a weapon. But none of you knows who’s holding the blade.

Ooooh, I like her. Sharp tongue. Warm wine.

AURAYA (not looking at Seliyah)
We didn’t come to toast. We came to listen. And maybe… to remember.

SELIYAH (smiles, resting fingers on Shad’ra’s wrist)
Then drink. Because what I’m about to offer can’t be forgotten. Even after death.
