👑 Prologue – The Red Throne (5 min)
The spires of Caeleth, once a beacon of law and legacy, now tremble under ash and flame. The skies swirl with voidlight. As bells toll in disharmony, the High King sits motionless, his crown askew, weeping blood that stains his silver robes.
Behind him, shadows move. The final hour of the court has begun.
⚔️ Act I – Siege of Caeleth (12 min)
The rebel host breaks through Caeleth’s outer defenses. Fire rains from the palace walls. Noble banners are torn down and replaced with makeshift sigils.
Alaric leads the charge with Solrend drawn. Beside him, Lysara burns a path through the enemy with tongues of living fire.
Within the city, noble houses betray each other in back alleys. Old vendettas resurface. As the Dominion falls, it devours itself.
🩸 Act II – The Death of Kings (10 min)
Alaric reaches the Throne Hall, only to find the High King slumped over, whispering to invisible gods. His eyes are void-black. His last words:
“The throne was never ours. It was always theirs.”
As he dies, a black crown falls from his brow, clattering across the marble. The court lies dead or dying. Silence falls.
🔥 Act III – Rise of the Last Light (10 min)
In the square below, the people chant Alaric’s name. One by one, broken nobles and common folk alike kneel, not in tradition, but in desperation.
The royal steward emerges with the ceremonial crown. “There is no court left. There is only you.”
Alaric turns away. “I’m no king.” But Lysara touches his shoulder. “You’re all we have left.”
In front of thousands, the crown is placed upon his brow. Not in glory. In mourning.
⚖️ Act IV – The Kingdom of Last Light (8 min)
Alaric addresses the city. “This is no coronation. This is a vow. The world we knew is dead. But as long as one light remains, we stand.”
He names the realm not by lineage or law, but by hope: The Kingdom of Last Light.
The Anthem plays once more, slower, mournful. The war is not won. But the people believe.
🎵 Final Montage (5 min)
- The crown glows faintly with golden fire, not power, but promise.
- Lysara looks northward, sensing movement beyond the Gate.
- Children light candles across the realm, whispering Alaric’s name like prayer.
- In the shadows of the ruined court, a noble survives, watching, plotting, forgotten.
📜 End Credits – Episode 7: Fall of the Court
The throne is no longer gilded. The kingdom is no longer whole. But it stands.
Alaric is now more than knight, more than rebel.
He is King of Last Light.
The Shadow of Eldros: Twilight of the Wardens continues.
