EXT-VALORIA-NIGHT Morrabus and his large Leathery,Winged Minions:The Nightmares, soar high in the star filled nightsky.Scanning the icy terrain below,as they fly over.Suddenly,something below catches,the evil Sorcerer's attention. MORRABUS (to his Demons) There is something,i must see to.Continue to scan, the surrounding area.Alert me of any new findings. 1st NIGHTMARE Yes,my Lord! Morrabus quickly descends,to the: ICE COVERED GROUND- Before the evil resurrected Sorcerer,stands a towering frozen Giant!Which seems to have been,frozen for centuries!Still attired,in Armor,and bearing a great spiked Mace,standing beneath the light,of the three great Moons!A wicked grin, spreads across Morrabus face. MORRABUS OH..you shall serve me well,my large friend. Hot jets of magical fire,shoot from Morrabus hands! As he begins to melt,the thick layer of ice,surrounding the Giant! EXT-SKY-VALORIA-NIGHT The large winged Demons,continue to fly over the artic surface,when suddenly,one catches sight of a Village! Situated at the base,of a large Mountain!The Demon hastily speeds back,to it's master..Morrabus!Who is busy, thawing out the Giant Warrior! After informing Morrabus,of it's find,the Sorcerer takes a break from thawing,the Giant,and creates a small Winged Demon,from the frozen earth!The minature Demon,lights atop, Morrabus arm! MORRABUS Go my little spy.Go to the Village..seek out those,that move against me! The dimunitive Demon,chirps and flys off!Towards the direction of the Ogre Village!

After searching Huts,for some length of time..the little Demon,finally locates the small,Stone Hut,which is occupied by our slumbering heroes!The Demon spy,quietly enters the room..careful not to awake anyone! EXT-FROZEN SEA-NORTHLANDS-NIGHT The winged dark robed Sorcerer,stands on the ice covered ground,sharing the small Demon's vision! MORRABUS P.O.V.-Through the eye's of his tiny winged minion,he views the two sleeping Guardians,and the Elf,Vajiic.Who sets in meditation,in the lotus position. The small Demon,walks around them slowly,and very quietly. MORRABUS Hmmn..the Daughter of Queen Taramis,the Elve,and the Gnome.Only three..curious..where is the Ranger? As the Demon,stands scanning over Alonna,and Godon, suddenly Vajiic comes out,of his meditation,and spots the little intruder!The last thing Morrabus see's, through the eye's of his creation,is a hot blast of Magic,leaving the Elve mage's hand! Alonna,and Godon wake up startled!Alonna's hand instinctively,goes to her Sword hilt!She rises to find Vajiic,standing over the burned carcass,of what appears to be,a small fowl!

INT-STONE HUT-OGRE VILLAGE-MORNING The inhabitants of the Village,are all gathered around, the small Stone Hut,of the Village Elder,in the Snow fall!Listening as Vajiic,and Alonna,stand before the Elder and her chief warriors.Telling them of the approaching Evil Sorcerer,and his Demon Hordes!After listening,to the Elve, and the Princess,Sha'olath responds. SHA'OLATH We have been anticipating this day,for some time. This day,was long prophesised.I just never new,that it would come during,my lifetime.. Alonna,Vajiic,and the Ogre Warriors,stand listening as the Elder continues. SHA'OLATH The One that resides atop the Mountain,told my ancestors about this day.When the forces of Darkness,would come seeking the Sacred Blade,of Light.Where my people,would make our stand,against the dark one's armies.In defense of Taranthalas. It shall be the battle,that will issue the world,into the great,and final battle..where the forces of Light,and Dark, shall battle,for the last time.. Sha'olath stops,and stares at the burning fire,with a solemn face.The large Ogre Warrior,Toth,places his strong, hand on the Elder's thin shoulders. TOTH Do not despair,Sha'olath.We shall drive,the Dark ones back.Those that are wicked,can never defeat those,who are righteous.(looking towards his fellow Warriors)Come,we have much preparing to do. MONTAGE: Toth,and countless other Ogre Warriors,work steadily in the snowfall.Preparing traps,sharpening their Axe's, and readying various other weapons,of war.While the Ogre Women escort the Children,and the Elderly,into caves, issuing into Mount Taranthalas!Alonna,is busily,making arrows,while Vajiic meditates.And Godon:He is busy observing the Ogre's work.While miles away,Morrabus and his Demon Minions: The Nightmares,hasten towards Mount Taranthalas!After everything is prepared,the Armor clad, Ogres wait in the falling snow,preparing for the coming battle. EXT-ICY SIDES OF MOUNT TARANTHALAS-VALORIA-DAY A bearded Aradeus,who is wearing Chainmail,and furs, slowly scales up the icy side of the great Mountain! Strong,gusts of cold wind,blow through his Garments, as his gloved hands,desperately seeks small breaks, within the mountainside.He is in luck!He finds what feels to be,a small crevice!He heaves himself up further. Once up,he realizes that what he had felt,was no crevice, but a CORPSE!A Corpse of an earlier explorer,that was froze,and made into a permanent resident. After being startled a little,the Ranger of Vallachia, continues up the Mountainside!Slowly nearing the top! EXT-OGRE VILLAGE-BASE OF MOUNT TARANTHALAS-DAY Our heroes,Vajiic,Alonna,and Godon,stand on the snowcovered ground,waiting.Suddenly,hordes of winged forms appear over,the snowcovered horizon! VAJIIC They're here! The three Guardians along with the Ogre warriors, watch as many more winged demons,set down on the icy ground,through the snowfall.Now the battle line,is drawn.The Soldier's of darkness,stand facing the champions of light.Morrabus stands admidst them, atop a smooth stone.He addresses his number one,Demon minion. MORRABUS Kill them.Kill them all! At once the Demons sprint towards the Ogre's lines! Toth gives out a great battlecry,and hefts his large battleaxe!He and his fellow Ogre warriors,charge towards the approaching Nightmares!They charge towards each other, with an unbridled fury!Suddenly the two sides collide! Talons tear flesh,and axes rend demon flesh!The battle for Mount Taranthalas,has begun! EXT-ICY SIDES OF MOUNT TARANTHALAS-DAY While the battle rages below,high above,along the sides of the great mountain,Aradeus has finally climbed up onto, an upward winding Mountain trail!Issuing to the very top, of the Mountain!He proceeds up the winding trailway,as harsh,icy winds,whip through his garments! After following the winding trail,for some length of time, the trail comes to level portion of the mountain.He has reached the top,of Taranthalas!He proceeds onto the PLATEAU: Of the mountain.Where he finds it to be quite spacious. Before him,sets a great cave.He slowly proceeds towards it,through the icy winds.As he does,a wall of blue flame, appears before him!Stopping him in his tracks! A voice emanates from the flame: VOICE HALT MORTAL!ALL THAT SEEK THE SWORD OF LIGHT,MUST FIRST PROVE,THEIR WORTHINESS!CHOOSE YOUR WEAPON! Suddenly behind the wall of flame,appears a great Weapon's rack!Filled with all sorts of Swords,shields,and Axes! The wall of flame disappears.Aradeus walks to the Weapons rack.He scans over the Weapons,deciding which to use. He makes his decision:He chooses a long Broadsword,and a great Shield. He now proceeds towards the Cave!He comes to a stop,as a great clawed Leathery Foot,exits the cave!And sets down on the snowcovered plateau!which is followed,by a Gigantic Reptilian like head,aligned with Horns!Which are ringed with Gold bracelets.It's eye's are large,Green,and Slit!It's Teeth are as long,and sharp as Swords!It is a Great Red Dragon,of old! Suddenly it lets out,an ear splitting roar,as a devastating jet of hot Red Flame,leaves it's wicked maw!Aradeus rolls out of the way,in just the nick of time!He rolls to his feet,preparing for the Gigantic Red Dragon's next move! The battle is on! EXT-OGRE VILLAGE-MOUNT TARANTHALAS-DAY At the base of the Mountain,a major battle is being fought! The Ogres and the large Demons,are locked in combat!Alonna, who has spent her last arrow,draws her sword,and rushes down into the fray!Leaving Godon behind,on the elevated portion of ground!While Vajiic dispatches dozens of Demons,by unleas hing a variety,of elemental spells! Morrabus stands atop of a smooth stone,further back on the battlefield!With Dozens of Demons,on each side of him!Suddenly he looks towards the top of the Mountain. His great Wing's lift him off the stone,and quickly propells him towards the Mountain top! On the Snowcovered battleground,his Demon Minions numbers, are beginning to dwindle.As Vajiic is finishing off a Demon, with his Scimitar,he hears great footsteps approaching!With each step,Godon is bounced off the ground!The fighting on both sides,comes to a halt,as the great steps get closer! Suddenly,the source of the great vibrations,are revealed! A GIGANTIC ICE GIANT,towers over the Treeline!!He steps from admidst the trees,and heads towards the battlefield! His strides are magnificent.An Ogre warrior looks back, and shouts: ICE GIANT! The Demons renew their attack,as the great Giant approaches!Some brave Ogres,rush out to meet,the Ice Giant, but are smashed flatter,than pancakes!By the Giant's great Feet!!The Giant swings his great Spiked Mace, sending Ogres and any unlucky Demons,who happen to be in the wrong place,at the wrong time,to their deaths! The Ogres are forced to retreat, back towards their Village due to the Giant's overwhelming power!As the Ogres retreat,Alonna,the Daughter of Queen Taramis, yanks an Arrow,out of the carcass,of a slain Demon! And fits,it on her Bow!She aims towards the Giant's Vital areas.The Arrows leave her bow,and strike the Giant's chest!The Giant is Angered! GIANT (SHOUTING) OWWW!THAT STUNG!I WILL SQUASH YOU LIKE A BUG!! The Giant proceeds towards Alonna,with a determined walk!Alonna hastily,tries to get out of the enraged Giant's path!As his great footsteps,comes down just inches behind her!As she is running,for her very life, she spots Godon!Still standing in the area,which she left him last!He is petrified! ALONNA (SHOUTING) Godon,run! As she is shouting at Godon,suddenly the Giant's foot comes down,almost smashing Alonna,to a bloody pulp!Due to the sheer power,of the giant's footstep,she is knocked off of her feet,to the snowcovered ground!She sees the Giant,raise his great foot,in the air!Directly above her,and is about to bring it down!Godon looks and yells: NOOOOO! Alonna manages to roll,out of the way,just in time,as the colossal Foot,smashes down!She hastily gets to her feet,and continues towards the Ogre Village!As the Giant is about to bring,his great Mace down,to finish Alonna off,suddenly the Elve Mage,Vajiic El Hajiic, appears before the Giant Warrior! Before the Giant can react,Magic Electricity leaves, Vajiic's hands,and strikes the Giant in the Eyes! The Giant is temporarily blinded,and now even more enraged! GIANT (SHOUTING) HOW DARE YOU INSECT!!WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU,I WILL POP YOU APART,LIKE A RIPE MELON!! The Giant goes wild,swinging his Mace,with abandon! EXT-TARANTHALAS PLATEAU-DAY Meanwhile atop Mount Taranthalas,the battle rages, between Aradeus,and Kyraxx,the Red!The Dragon turns and whips it's great tail,at Aradeus!Who promptly ducks and rolls out of the way!Once back to his feet,he trys to channel energy from his hands,but nothing happens! He is shocked for a moment,but not for too long!For the Dragon sends forth a jet of flame,from it's mouth,causing Aradeus to place his shield,in front of him!The Jet of Flame,flows over the edges of the sheild!Forcing Aradeus backward,and to his knees! Suddenly the Flames cease!The Dragon is readying it's breath for another,burst of Flame.When suddenly,Aradeus rushes forward,and stabs his long Swordblade,into the Dragons exposed,soft underbelly! The Dragon lets out a great roar,as he rears up,in pain!Afterward,he crashes to the snowcovered ground,and expires! Aradeus leans beside a wall of rock,exhausted!But he has won!He has defeated Kyraxx,and proved himself worthy!He now proceeds towards the cave. EXT-OGRE VILLAGE-MOUNT TARANTHALAS-DAY The Giant warrior's Mace,smashes through the Stone Huts of the Village!As he pursues Vajiic!Who is heading towards the rocky,uneven base of Mount Taranthalas!Vajiic rushes up,the rocky slope,then turns,to face the approaching evil Giant! He raises his wooden Staff,into the air,towards the heavens.Suddenly Dark Clouds begin to develop overhead, as the Giant,is making it's way,towards the Base of the Mountain!Suddenly a BOLT OF LIGHTNING,leaves the Heavens,and strikes the Giant,in the top of it's head! The Giant falls to the rocky Earth,deader than a doorknob! Upon the Giant's passing,the Ogre Warriors cheer!But their rejoicing is cut short!Hordes of more,winged Demons,are hastily approaching!The outnumbered Ogres,draw their Swords, and Axes once more!Preparing to battle,this new group of, of adversaries! INT-CAVE-MOUNT TARANTHALAS Aradeus proceeds into the cave,where he finds mounds of Treasure!Everything from Gold filled,treasure chests, from mounds of Rubys,to Diamonds,to suits of Knight's armor,line the Cave's interior!As he walks through the Cave's riches,he spots a hooded figure,dressed in long white robes,sitting admidst the treasure hoarde! Aradeus slowly proceeds towards the robed individual. ROBED FIGURE Welcome,i have been expecting you,for sometime. ARADEUS Who are you? ROBED FIGURE I am called Menothesulahs.He who you defeated,was the Guardian.I am the Keeper. ARADEUS The keeper of what? MENOTHESULAHS The keeper of the Sacred Sword,of course.And now the time has come,for me to relinquish,my hold over it..to he that, has proven himself worthy. Menothesulahs holds a beautiful sheathed broadsword,out before Aradeus. MENOTHESULAHS Take it,young warrior.You have earned it. Aradeus takes the Sword,from the robed man's hand. He unsheaths it.The radiant Blade,illuminates the entire cave. MENOTHESULAHS Now look into it,Aradeus.Look into the Blade,and learn the origin of Erubus. Aradeus gazes into the illuminated Blade,he begins to see images.Crystal clear images,of an unknown place,and time,seems to appear,within his mind,along with sounds! MENOTHESUALHS Good,you can see it,can you? Aradeus P.O.V.-He begins to see a landscape,which appears to be dominated by billowy clouds.Beautiful transparent beings,fly about the strange landscape,as a great luminary,that seems brighter than a thousand suns,illuminates the entire strange realm. ARADEUS (AWE STRUCK) By the Ancients..it's like nothing i've ever seen! It,s beautiful! MENOTHESULAHS You see Asraelyn,birthplace of the Ancients,and of Erubus! You are witnessing the past.This was the time before the great war.It was a place of vast beauty then,but that was before the time of the Dark one,Erubus. PAUSE. MENOTHESULAHS He and i were brothers once,long ago.But that was before your world was created.Once he was glorious..a illuminated being,of pure beauty.But he harbored dark thoughts,of resentment towards our father.Afterward,he decided that,he himself,was best fit to rule,the Heavens,and all things that resided beneath it.So he rebelled against our father. Afterward a schism occurred between the dwellers of Asraelyn. PAUSE MENOTHESULAHS Now there were two sides:Those loyal to Erubus,and those loyal to our Father.War erupted.A devastating war,that waged on for quite some time.But a champion of Asraelyn, arose to quell,the violence.He was the eldest son,of the father,and the Prince of Asraelyn! PAUSE MENOTHESULAHS Armed with the Sacred Sword,forged from Light itself,by the hand of the Father,the Prince vanquished the forces of Darkness,and threw Erubus along with his followers,down to this place,Elonia!After doing so,the prince realized that no one dwelling,on this realm,could stand before his dark spiteful brother!So,he cast his Sword,the Sword of Light,down to this World!So that it may give,the inhabitant's Hope.And a way to stand before,and vanquish Erubus. ARADEUS P.O.V.-He watches as the Gleaming Sword,pierces through thick clouds,on its way to ,the surface of Elonia! MENOTHESULAHS The Sword landed here,Centuries ago.I was placed here,as it's keeper,and to await the coming of a worthy recipient. And now my time here,is over.Now it is up to you,to vanquish the lord of Darkness. Aradeus takes his eye's off of the Sword blade,and stares at Menothesulahs. ARADEUS But.. what if i fail? MENOTHESULAHS Why my boy..you must not fail!To fail,is to doom,the entire world!You must understand..Erubus is not a mortal.His actions are not motivated,by the petty thoughts,such as those of Men,Elves,and Dwarves.He does not come seeking Lands,Crops,Gold,and Women!He comes seeking,the life essence, of all that reside,on this world! PAUSE MENOTHESULAHS If he is not stopped,he will eradicate all those that stand against him!As well as all those,who stand with him!He will feed off the souls,of everyone and everything! And when Elonia is no more,he shall wage his war,against the Heavens!Behold! Menothesulahs places his hand,on Aradeus shoulder. ARADEUS P.O.V-Suddenly he is standing,in the dense darkness of space!,As countless numbers of dead bodies float admidst the Shattered remnants,of what was once called:THE WORLD!Huge fragments,of BUILDINGS,that were once parts of,Castles,Palaces,and Temples,float admidst ASTEROID SIZE ROCKS!Suddenly he is drawn out,of this environment,and back to his current one! MENOTHESULAHS That is what,will become of your world,if Erubus suceeds. ARADEUS This future shall not come to pass.I shall bring the Demon Lord to ruin. Aradeus slides the Sword of Light,into it's Sheath. He is about to exit the Cave,when suddenly,a Dark robed,and Hooded figure,appears at the Cave's entrance! A great pair of Leathery wings,protrudes from the robed individual's back! MENOTHESULAHS It appears that we have,another visitor. ARADEUS Morrabus! The evil Sorcerer strides into the Treasure laden Cave. His long garments,trailing behind. MORRABUS Well,well,well.Aradeus,the little Ranger of Vallachia! We just keep bumping into each other.But as you know,of course,that this will probaly,be our last meeting.However, i must compliment this lovely tomb,of yours.It is Quite fitting for a Ranger of Vallachia,to be buried like a King.. admidst his Treasure Horde. ARADEUS You're wrong Sorcerer.I have not come seeking Treasure. That which i sought,was Enlightment.And i have attained it.Pity that you are so benighted,or you would know,that your cause is lost!Behold your doom,Morrabus! Aradeus unsheaths the radiant Sword of Light! MORRABUS You possess the Sword of Light!But what use is it..if you cannot see? Morrabus outstretches his hands,causing a Dense Darkness, to fall over the Cave!Aradeus stands all alone,in the black cave!The Sword still radiates Light,but there is no sign of Morrabus,or Menothesulahs! Suddenly Morrabus voice,fills the entire Cave! MORRABUS Where am i,little Ranger? I could be anywhere!I could be behind you!Or beside you!Or better yet-I could be..right beneath you! Suddenly an invisible force,lifts aradeus off of the Cave floor,and sends him flying to the other,side of the cave!He forcefully lands atop a pile of Gold!But he manages to keep his Sword,in hand! Aradeus quickly gets to his feet!The Darkness before the illuminated Blade,seems to move!As if possessed by some intelligence!Once again,Morrabus voice emanates,from the surrounding dense darkness! MORRABUS Tell me boy..what good is Light against Darkness? How can you fight,that which has no form,but all form? Tell me boy..how? As Aradeus stands listening,waiting for the Sorcerer's next attack,he is lifted up again,and thrown somewhere else!The well concealed Sorcerer,by way of his dark Magic,repeatedly sends Aradeus flying through the air! Impacting with the Walls,of the Cave! After being hurled from wall to wall,Aradeus falls to the Cavefloor,winded!The Sword of Light,lays beside him! MORRABUS Now tell me,boy..how does it feel,to be surrounded by utter Darkness?Here at the end,tell me how does it feel, to die all alone,with no one to save you? Your friends cannot help you now,you will die,all alone,up here,atop the roof of the World. Aradeus slowly gets to his feet,his Sword in hand. MORRABUS And now it is time,for you to embrace the darkness, forever. Aradeus retreats deep inside himself,holding the Sword before him!While all around him,the Dense Darkness,begins to move,retreating to the other side,of the cave! Aradeus grips his Sword,preparing for Morrabus final attack! ARADEUS Let my stroke,ring true. Suddenly the great mass,of dense darkness,springs from the other side of the room,towards Aradeus!As the Massive wall of tangible Darkness,is about to overtake him..he thrusts the glowing Sword Blade,into the center of the wall of Darkness!Suddenly the Darkness,begins to recede, revealing Morrabus!Who is impaled on the Sword Blade! ARADEUS You were wrong Sorcerer..when you fight on the side of light,you are never alone! The Ranger slides the Blade,out of Morrabus Abdomen. Morrabus falls to the ground,and expires! ARADEUS Be at peace Sorcerer. Aradeus exits the Cave.And walks through the harsh icy winds,to the edge,of the Snow covered: PLATEAU He stares down towards the base,of Taranthalas.It will take days,to climb down,from such an extreme height. He gazes into the Sword Blade,and sees images of his comrades,down below!At the Base of Mount Taranthalas,who are fighting hordes of Winged Demons!alongside the Brave Ogre Warriors! ARADEUS My friends need me.it's so far down..but yet..it seems so close.Like i could just reach out,and touch them. Suddenly Menothesulahs appears behind Aradeus.The harsh cold winds,plays through their garments. MENOTHESULAHS If you think you can,you can. ARADEUS But it's so far down.The fall would kill me. MENOTHESULAHS You doubt yourself.You're thinking like a mortal.. a Human.Let go of doubt!let go of fear Aradeus!They will only hinder you.You possess the Sacred Blade.Now there is nothing unattainable to you!Your friends need you,the world needs you,do not abandon them now! Aradeus closes his eyes,as he holds the Sword of Light, out before him.It's blade begins to glow brighter,and brighter!Suddenly Aradeus is totally enveloped in light. EXT-OGRE VILLAGE-MOUNT TARANTHALAS-DAY Vajiic,Alonna,Toth and his outnumbered fellow Ogres, stand huddled together,with their weapons drawn! Surrounded by Hordes of winged Demons,who are slowly moving in for the kill. TOTH We die with honor! As the two guardians,and the small number of Ogres, prepare to make their last stand,suddenly a bright light appears on the snowcovered battlefield!The Demons frantically back away,from the great luminary! The bright light begins to tone down,revealing a figure,holding a beautiful Sword! VAJIIC It's Aradeus.He has returned! The Demons seem to recognize the Sword!They cower,and hiss,but they do not attack!Well,all except their large, four armed,demon leader!He rushes toward Aradeus,with a hellish fury!His attack never gets started!With a swipe from Aradeus Sword,it's head is taken clean off!The Demon leader's decapitated body,falls to the ground! In the blink of an eye,Aradeus is standing over the cowering,winged Demons!His Sword gleaming!He lowers the point of his radiant blade,towards one of the Demon's throat! ARADEUS I am going,to let the rest,of you live.You will deliver a message,to your Sovereign.Go back,and tell Erubus,that his days are numbered!Now be gone! The Demons hastilly fly off!Leaving the Guardians,and the Ogre warriors alone,on the corpse strewn,snowcovered battlefield!His fellow Guardians,along with the Ogre warriors,rush over to Aradeus cheering!It is a victory,for both parties.For the Ogres:They have successfully, defended their home,Mount Taranthalas,from the forces of evil! And for the Guardians:Who,after such a long and perilous journey,have finally attained,the sacred Sword of Light! EXT-OLEDDON-NIGHT Beneath the light of the three great moons,a great victory celebration is being held!King Lightaxe,Queen Taramis, Sultan Hasheed,and Tormellon,stand conversing as the Knights, and the citizens dance in the Stone streets,of the battle ravaged city! INT-SEALROOM-TEMPLE OF OROLON-NIGHT The remaining Demons,which were spared by Aradeus earlier, now stand before,the Throne of their Sovereign,Erubus!The lead Demon,recounts what happened,at the base of Mount Taranthalas.Obviously it is not,to the Demonlord's liking! A blast of Blue fire,leaves Erubus mouth,and totally incinerates the Demon!The rest of the Demons,cower! ERUBUS (SHOUTING) BE GONE!LEAVE MY SIGHT!! The Demons hastilly,make themselves scarce! By way of a transparent viewplane,Erubus looks in on the celebrations,occuring in Oleddon,and the Ogre Village! ERUBUS Celebrate foolish Mortals.Celebrate to your hearts content. For you may have won the battle,but the war is far,from over! The Demon Lord lets out a great Laugh,as he sits on his Throne, planning his next plan,of attack! END. credits roll.
