Transcript
The armored Warden Voss sweeps aside incoming bolts with his cloak. Voss: “Behind me!” Mara crouches as hooded attackers rush through the forest. She strikes a green-clad attacker with her sword. Sound effect: “WHAM” Mara and Voss stand back-to-back, each holding a sword. Mara: “Is this how you fought with my father?” Voss: “He talked less.” A red-haired man looks back while running uphill. Red-haired man: “…Right. Not today, then.” A hooded attacker calls: “This isn’t over, courier! That star’s worth a kingdom!”
