Son of the Seraphim - Episode 1

## Episode Synopsis

### Looking for Orion

The story begins in Immortar, 20 years after The Fall. The last few weeks, Orion has been acting different. He’s always in a rush to get away from his friends, Gabe and Artemis. The last few days they haven’t seen him at all. The sky also seems darker and quieter.

Gabe and Artemis meet in the library and decide to go to Orion’s house to check if he’s alright. Carpathian, the archivist of the library, has noticed that Orion has been reading some forbidden and strange scrolls about the darker Seraphims, and decides to follow them. His co-archivist, Lyra, goes along with him.

### Orion's Secret

Gabe and Artemis arrive at Orion’s home, which is situated of the outer edge of Immortar, close to the edge. They knock on the door and yell for Orion. Amphiteron, Orion’s father, opens the door, and looks terrified. He says Orion is sick and doesn’t let the kids in. A few minutes later, Carpathian and Lyra arrive, and Artemis uses them as a distraction while they sneak into the backdoor of the house. Gabe and Artemis go inside Orion's room, and Orion removes his robes. His skin has a slightly pink tint, and he has small horns on his head. Huge wings unravel, and his hands turn into claws. Gabe thinks Orion looks awesome, but Artemis is scared and starts screaming.

Meanwhile, Amphiteron confides in Carpathian that Orion isn’t his son, but is the son of Cygnus, a Seraphim. He was supposed to be killed, but Amphiteron took him in and raised him. Orion was born with small deformations, but they have now grown into wings. During this conversation, there is a lurch, and they hear screams from Orion’s room. They go into Orion’s room, and after it is revealed that Orion’s mother is Impusa, a Seraphim who was the most offensive to Asala. They decide to take Orion to Cygnus, to get some answers.

### The Second Fall

When they arrive at the palace where Cygnus lives, there is another drop, and the people on the street start shouting and running. They meet Cygnus, and Amphiteron reveals to Orion that his real father is Cygnus. Cygnus explains that when Orion was born, he wanted to throw him off the edge of Immortar because Asala would be offended. But Asala already noticed him and punished the angels, making The Fall happen.

All of a sudden, the group is lifted from their feet, and Immortar starts to fall down. Orion starts to glow with a dark tint, but Carpathian convinces him that he is good, and that he must show himself to the believers, to let them know that their God is alive. Orion regains control of himself, and they all take each others hands, except from Cygnus. Immortar is coming closer and closer to the earth, and Orion flaps his wings and pulls them all out. Carpathean however loses his grip, and floats away.

Orion tries to fly them to earth, but Amphiteron's hand slips out of reach, and he starts floating away. Orion uses his power to contain the impact of Immortar falling on the earth. With a thunderous crash, there is a massive collision. Orion and Artemis survive this, but Gabe is barely alive. Orion is weak and devastated, and the boys say their goodbye. The earth starts to tip forward, and there is another collision. Artemis gets injured, and sees a pile of body's on the ground. In the center of the crowd is Impusa, covered in blood. She's laughing while it's raining people, but at that moment Orion rises in the air, and Impusa screams 'Give me your wings!'.
