Transcript
Mara Venn, wearing a red scarf and holding a sword, faces the armored Warden Voss on a stone bridge in the rain. The sword has a thin cyan line along its blade, and a bright star is visible above the ravine. Warden Voss: “It is a danger, not a prize.” A close view shows Mara’s hand gripping the sword; the bright star shines in the rainy sky. Mara Venn: “You could have started with that.” Warden Voss: “You would not have listened.”
