JP Serra Setting Up The Future
What I learned doing this assignment is that AI gave me the idea that the magical silver oil could be made from Sylvanor’s broken stone fragment. This is a real breakthrough actually!
—
Make a list of events/character reveals/under-the-surface info that COULD be set up in the pilot.
– Ben reveals the power and curse of his stone. This raises the question, what are the powers and the curses of the other stones?
– Sylvanor prepares his army for an eventual attack.
– Mirelle brings one of Cody’s toy to life but there are many toys. Will she bring the other ones to life as well?
– Nayeli sees something lurking in the shadows and hears a kid laughing? What is it?
– Nayeli travels alone? What is she looking for?
– Who destroyed Cody’s project?
– Where does the magical oil come from?
– What happened to the mineworkers? Where were they taken?
– Why can’t Mirelle have any children?
– Why does Sylvanor need all of the Stonevale’s mineworkers?
– Why doesn’t Cody want to follow his parents’ footsteps?
– How will Mirelle hide the creature she created?
– What will be the villager’s reaction when they find out about her secret?
– Are the creatures born from the magical oil good or bad?
– Rivalry between Lambert and Urnek. How will this end?
– How will Lambert’s weapons defend when they will be attacked?

- Setup – Nayeli sees something lurking in the shadows and hears a kid laughing? What is it?
- Setup – Ben reveals the power and curse of his stone. This raises the question, what are the powers and the curses of the other stones?

DR. AVA GREEN is an expert in a specific field of biotechnology that can counteract the harm of the beauty industry, making her role pivotal in the coalition’s strategy.
RAVEN emphasizes the need for logical strategies, focusing on specific campaign targets and methods, while the coalition establishes communication networks, safe havens, and resource channels.

A key figure from the Beauty Industry expresses remorse or takes a stand against their own company’s unethical actions, surprising both the coalition and viewers alike and prompting a reevaluation of their goals and tactics.
SKYY LAR meets a Beauty Industry representative, presents the Rebellion’s case, and demands action. The 20,000 pigeons and other coalition members highly expect change and protection.
The Beauty Industry dismisses the Rebellion’s effort as a minor nuisance, exaggerated ‘Sky rats,’ and portrays itself as environmentally responsible.
Some industry players employ intimidation tactics to create internal fear and division. As a result, one fruit pigeon died, and people suspected the industry had caused it.
RAPHAEL doubts the coalition’s potential impact and fears the results of taking a definitive stand. He chooses his benefit for the well-being of the alliance.
RAVEN projects confidence and proposes action plans for the coalition in memory of a dead member. However, RAVEN is concerned that the coalition’s actions might provoke a severe backlash, endangering the movement and the broader avian community.

The Beauty Industry might initiate legal actions against the Rebellion members, framing them as extremists or criminals who must face arrests or legal battles, diverting the group’s focus and resources.
Responding to these threats and complications requires resources, which might drain the Rebellion’s already limited assets, impacting its ability to operate effectively.
Some members might advocate aggressive actions against the beauty industry, shifting from their original non-violent stance, leading to legal repercussions, public backlash, or even personal harm.
HOW THE LAYER IS REVEALED: Suspicion arises among the rebellion members as RAPHAEL’s behavior becomes increasingly questionable. Secret meetings and clandestine activities hint at RAPHAEL’s double-agent role, creating tension and uncertainty within the group.
Turning Point:
Cliffhanger: Doubts about RAPHAEL’s allegiance introduce a critical moment of uncertainty, propelling the narrative into future episodes.
Can you tell me who betrayed us?
Lock-In:
After SKYY LAR loses a left leg, forming and leading a birds-human alliance, shifts its role and responsibility to activism, public commitment, and action, becomes a target and venerable, psychologically transformed, committed to community and relationships, conducts a peaceful fly-past, demands action from Industry, infiltrating Beauty HQ’s facility.
