(Please keep in mind that this is done as it would be a script for a comic. I have a background in comics, so I use comic terms for the script. I do hope to get this made as a movie or short TV show. I'm looking for feedback on the pages. If you can take the time to read and leave a review in the comments, replace panels with shots.)
Chapter 6 Page 1
The Castle in the Sky
(Ch6 Pg1 Panel 1 - Wide Panel)
A wide, panoramic shot shows Garna, the giant, walking along a massive stone path leading toward the enchanted castle in the sky. The sky is tinged with deep blues and purples, giving the setting an otherworldly, dreamlike quality. The castle is still in the distance, towering over the landscape like a forgotten relic of ancient power. Garerit, hidden within the tree's branches, peers out carefully, his expression a mix of curiosity and apprehension. The tree sways slightly with Garna's movements, but the tailor holds on tight, making sure he isn't spotted.
SB (Narration - Caption): "As the castle loomed ahead, the tailor saw the world of giants stretch before him- massive, ancient, and perilous."
(Ch6 Pg1 Panel 2 - Wide Panel)
A glimpse into the inside of the enchanted castle's land reveals towering, massive stone structures that seem barely suitable for anyone smaller than a giant. Inside the gates, giants patrol the area—some standing guard, others relaxing near enormous stone tables, feasting and sharpening weapons. Their booming voices rise in laughter and conversation, giving the castle an alive yet threatening atmosphere. Several giants are loudly conversing as they guard and oversee their captives. The castle's magical aura intensifies here, and the stark contrast between the giants' immense size and the small figure of the tailor underscores the monumental challenge Garerit faces.
SB (Narration - Caption): "Within the castle, giants roam freely, their presence an ever-looming threat to those trapped here. Some are more dangerous than others."
(Ch6 Pg1 Panel 3 - Medium Panel)
The giants are scattered along the path, some sitting on large stone ledges, while others sharpen their weapons or haul massive supplies toward the castle. Their voices boom like rolling thunder, and their presence makes the tailor more cautious.
Garna - Dialogue Bubble: "Ah-ha! Borik! Still eating more than you fight, I see! Hah!"
Borik - Dialogue Bubble: "And you, Garna, still carrying twigs instead of real weight!"
(Ch6 Pg1 Panel 4 - Medium Panel)
A medium panel shows Garerit peeking from behind a tree branch, trying to stay unnoticed as the giants go about their business. His expression is focused, and there's a determined look in his eyes. The giants are mostly unaware of his presence, busy with their affairs. The tailor's observation of these giants introduces the danger they represent, but also hints at the potential strategy Garerit may employ to outwit them.
SB (Garerit - Thought Bubble): "More giants... if I'm to succeed, I'll need to be clever."
SB (Garerit - Thought Bubble): "It's time to use my wits. I must avoid getting caught." (CUT?)
(Ch6 Pg1 Panel 5 - Close-Up Panel)
A close-up shot of Garerit shows him watching through the branches, his face partially hidden by pine needles. His eyes dart between the giants, trying to remain unseen. His grip tightens on the tree, and a single bead of sweat forms on his forehead as he realizes just how many giants are here.
SB (Garerit - Thought Bubble): "There are too many of them... I can't let them find me."
(Ch6 Pg1 Panel 6 - Wide Panel)
As Garna moves, the castle in the sky comes fully into view as it breaks through the clouds. The structure is colossal, with spiraling towers, ornate bridges of shimmering stone, and glowing runes carved into its walls. A mysterious blue-green light pulses from its windows, and spectral chains drape across sections of the castle, hinting at ancient magic and imprisoned souls. The clouds swirl around its base, adding to its eerie majesty. Garerit's eyes widen in awe and trepidation as he sees it up close for the first time. He grips the tree bark tighter, feeling the weight of his situation.
SB (Narration - Caption): "The enchanted castle stood before him, an eerie fortress of power and mystery. Whatever lay inside, it was not meant for the likes of men."
Ch6 Pg 2
(Ch6 Pg2 Panel 1 - Wide Shot)
The castle doors loom before them, massive and adorned with arcane symbols. The air is thick with magic, swirling with glowing embers that drift like fireflies. Standing on the front steps is EliDoras, a tall, regal figure in flowing dark robes, his long silver hair cascading past his shoulders. His eyes glow unnaturally, and he holds a gilded staff, crackling with latent magic. Several other creatures, a fox with human-like eyes, a haggard old cow, and a massive hound with strange intelligence-stand nearby, watching. The fox, cow, and dog stand together, their features now more refined and humanoid. Their faces retain their animal characteristics, muzzles, ears, and fur-but their bodies are structured like those of humans, with proper limbs, posture, and clothing fitting their roles in the castle. The Fox: A slender figure with keen, intelligent eyes, dressed in a fine tunic and cloak, giving the impression of a cunning court official or a scholar. The Cow: A broad-shouldered individual with strong arms, wearing a simple yet practical outfit suited for physical labor, resembling a farmer or stable master. The Dog: Standing with a firm yet attentive posture, clad in a guard's uniform, exuding loyalty and duty, as if once a knight or castle guard before the curse.
(Ch6 Pg2 Panel 2 - Medium Shot - First Words Exchanged)
EliDoras smirks, looking down at Garerit, clearly amused by the tailor's small stature compared to Garna. Garna laughs heartily, unaware of the tension.
EliDoras (Dialogue - Cold and Calculating): "A tailor? In my domain? You must be more than you seem... or exceptionally foolish."
Garerit (Keeping His Cool, Responds Wryly): "They say the best tailors weave more than thread, my lord."
(Ch6 Pg2 Panel 3 - Close-Up)
The fox, cow, and hound exchange glances, their eyes filled with silent desperation. Garerit notices their strange behavior, sensing something is wrong.
(Ch6 Pg2 Panel 4 - Medium Shot)
EliDoras gestures toward the animals, a smirk playing on his lips. Garerit's expression hardens, gripping the strap of his satchel tightly. The fox takes a hesitant step forward, as if pleading.
EliDoras (Casual, Almost Bored): "They were once men and women, like yourself. A simple precaution. If my guests cannot run, they cannot leave."
