Cold open
EXT. DUSTY VILLAGE SQUARE - DAWN The sun rises over adobe huts. A line of starving villagers waits in silence. From the horizon glide SIX FIGURES in pristine white robes untouched by dust. They carry baskets of steaming bread. ELIAS VOSS (40s, gentle voice) steps forward. He offers a loaf to a skeletal CHILD. ELIAS Take. It is given freely. The child bites. Color returns to her cheeks instantly. The mother weeps. The robes remain spotless. MIRA SOTO (30s, haunted) watches from the shadows clutching her own feverish son. Elias turns and smiles directly at her as though he has waited centuries. ELIAS (softly) Your wait ends today. Wind rises. The other robed figures bow their heads in unison. Their voices hum a single pure note that makes the air shimmer.
