0:00–0:03 | The Last Child

A 7-year-old human child walks alone through the ruins of an ancient kingdom at night, holding a tiny glowing lantern. Smoke and ash drift through the destroyed streets while distant flames illuminate the ruins.

0:03–0:06 | The Threat

Several enormous dark creatures emerge from the smoke and surround the frightened child. The child slowly steps backward as the creatures approach.

0:06–0:10 | The Dragon Appears

A gigantic ancient red dragon suddenly lands between the child and the creatures. Its massive wings spread wide, golden eyes glowing intensely, as it releases a powerful roar that echoes through the ruined kingdom.

0:10–0:13 | The Protection

The creatures retreat in fear. The dragon gently lowers one enormous wing around the child, shielding them from danger. The child looks up with tears in their eyes, realizing the dragon is protecting them.

0:13–0:15 | Emotional Ending

The dragon looks at the child before turning toward the burning horizon as dawn begins to rise. The child gently places a small hand against the dragon’s face. Warm sunrise light breaks through the smoke as the camera slowly pushes in.
