Core Narrative 4

Hyperion Trilogy:

**MOVIE 1**: HYPERION: DISSENTION

The movie starts out with the Serran starship intercepting a
transmission from Kazar

Tova leaving her
planet, Kazar, in search of help. She sends out her transmission that we have
seen her making in her Vlog posts and in the “transmissions from Terra to
Serrous” blog posts. The Linenians and Celestials are ravaging her planet in
the opening. She escapes in a sharp, black, dagger like ship that is cloaked
against the black of space. We flash back to the Kazari leader, Zana, telling
Tova that she must find other races to help fight the Celestials.

Tova heads to New Earth to seek help from the Terran’s. She
knows that they are technologically advanced but have had their pigment
stripped from their hair and eyes and has left them to hide in the dark. Tova
has many exo-suits in her ship that she plans to give to any Terran’s that are
willing to help her. She lands on a remote part of the planet, high up in the
mountains. She treks to the nearest city, Nova Yorka, and sees the Celestials
near all the main entrances to the city. She manages to sneak in through a
network of sewer tunnels. She comes up into the city and finds shelter with
some sympathetic Terran’s.

The cities are desolate as the Terran’s can only come out in
the dark due to the lack of pigment in their eyes. Tova is taken underground to
meet with the President of New Earth, **President**
Marcos**.**

She begs the President to help her form a coalition against the
Celestials. He agrees that something must be done but says they can only
operate in the night due to their pigment loss. Tova says she has a suit for
one of them to come with her now and blueprints she can give them so they can
mass produce them for their armies. The President agrees to this and a
volunteer steps forward to help. Her name is **Kara**, and she is a highly skilled and trained in hand to hand
combat as well as having advanced weaponry skills. Kara has long platinum white
hair and white eyes. She has tanned skin though which makes the contrast of her
hair and eyes even more apparent.

They sneak out of the city and back to Tova’s ship. As they
are ascending through the atmosphere, they are spotted by the Celestials. A
chase ensues and Tova’s ship takes some damage. It looks like they are about to
be overpowered and captured when a massive Serran warship emerges from light
speed in front of them. They are signaled to dock their ship inside the Serran
vessel. They do so and the Serrans jump to light speed to escape the battle.

Once safely aboard the ship, Tova and Kara meet with the
captain of the Serran ship to discuss their mission. Introduced to **Umid** who agrees that they need to take
up arms against the Celestials. They take them far from New Earth and are
headed toward Kondol, seeking an alliance with the Kondai people

They arrive on Kondol and are greeted by **Trogo**, a member of the Kondai. He
agrees to help Tova and Kara in their quest to round up members of the galaxy
and fight back against the Celestial threat.

They all form a coalition and lead their ships to the center
of the galaxy where the celestials live upon the fragments of a forgotten
world. War ensues, and the Celestials use the energy from the stars to fight
the rebels. They can absorb the energy from the stars and this allows them to
discharge huge amounts of solar energy and radiation that decimates the rebel
forces. The movie ends with one of the Celestials growing in size and
exploding, creating a huge energy wave that spreads outward.

**MOVIE 2**: HYPERION: A NEW THREAT

The movie starts out with the rebel ships unable to move due
to the massive energy wave seen at the end of part 1.

Tova, Kara, Umid and Trogo are in dire need of help and
their life support on their ship is failing. Tova’s body structure allows her
to survive without oxygen so she contemplates leaving the ship to fight from
outside, but the others don’t let her do so. Instead, Tova uses her electric
powers to recharge the ships core and bring it’s systems back online. This
proves effective and allows them to pick up survivors on the other ships and escape.

The explosion left the Celestials weak as well, so Tova and
her team must hurry to find more help from other members of the galaxy. Kara
contacts New Earth to see if the Terran’s have been successful in duplicating
the exo suits that allowed her to be in the sunlight and they say that progress
is underway on mass production. She states that the Celestials are weakened and
now is the time to attack.

The team travels to Serrous where the main city, Otanga,
where a group of Linenian mercenaries has been sent to attack. They are highly
skilled and able to camouflage themselves against the shadows and the night.
The team descends through the atmosphere and sees Otanga in flames. Trogo stays
behind on the ship as he is a water alien who cannot survive in the harsh
Serran climate.

Umid leads the team through the citadel and many of their
members are killed by the highly trained Linenians. Tova screams out to ask who
sent them and the the Linenian leader divulges that they had been sent from
Ohm.

They all disappear into the shadows and are not seen again.
Tova and the team regroup after the fight and go to the catacombs on Serrous
where the ancient history is kept. They find information on Ohm, as no one in
the galaxy has seen or heard of them in Eons. They find that the Ohm once ruled
the galaxy with an iron fist and were eventually overthrown by a group of rebels
who banded together to fight their tyranny.

The scene pans over the galaxy where huge warships emerge
out of light speed. The Ohmanti have arrived and their leader, **Hakai**, is ready to destroy everything
that gets in his way. Hakai’s ships advance on Serrous and rain down on the
planet, destroying the neighboring city. The whole city is obliterated and the
Serran’s begin to evacuate the planet as the Ohmanti continue their attack.

The ships flee from Serrous as it starts to crack and
explodes, sending shockwaves through the galaxy and knocking all of the ships
off course. The team are stranded on their different ships and some of them are
hurtling towards planets and end up crashing. Kara and Tova crash land on Toa, and
Trogo and Umid are adrift in space, close to New Earth.

**MOVIE 3**: HYPERION: VERDICT

The movie opens with Hakai and his ships searching the asteroid
wreckage of Serrous for anyone who escaped. He sends the Linenians to find any
survivors and kill them. The Linenians are seen finding survivors and eating
them. They devour their enemies to absorb their life energy. They lurk in the
shadows of the wreckage and creep up on the survivors. They slowly eat their
prey and savor their energy while doing so. The greedy Linenians grow tired
from engorging themselves on the energy of the survivors. This allows Trogo and
Umid to sneak up on some of them and launch a counter attack with other
survivors of the explosion. The fight is difficult as the Linenians are able to
blend with the darkness and shadows of the failing ships. Trogo throws a light
grenade that creates so much light that the Linenians are exposed and cannot
hide. They are able to kill the ones in their immediate area and continue on to
the engine room to fix their ship.

We are then taken to the crash site of the ship that Kara
and Tova were on. They have crashed on the moon of Serrous, Toa. This is home
to energy beings that are able to inhabit bodies or robotic forms that they
have created in order to interact with other species. Neither of our heroes
have visited this planet before or know much about it other than the
inhabitants are energy lifeforms. They and a group of other survivors from
their ship set out across the metallic surface of the moon. They see green
flashes of lightening passing them and Tova says they must be the Toans. They
follow them until Tova decides to use her body like a lightening rod and absorb
the Toan energy as it passes. Upon doing so, Tova is able to feel the lifeform
within her body and is able to communicate with it. It is called **Crona**.

Tova learns that the Toans have existed peacefully for eons
since they were experimented on by the Ohmanti long ago. Tova learns that the
Celestials are the parent beings of the Toans. Tova tries to ask the Toan inside her to help them fight back and
perhaps they could persuade the Celestials to help them, if they could only
remember where they came from in the first place. Tova tells them of all they
have been stripped of and how it is affecting all of the other species in the
system. The Toan leaves Tova’s body and disappears. When Kara and Tova think
that they will not help, a group of android bodies walk over the horizon and it
is a group of Toans willing to help. The flash of green light goes back into
Tova and Crona tells her that it will help them contact the Celestials and try
to convince them to help.

Trogo and Umid finally are able to power their ship and
start to leave the debris asteroid field. The Ohmanti detect their movement and
follow in pursuit. Taking heavy fire from the Ohmanti ship, Trogo and Umid are
eventually able to evade them as their ship is small and can traverse the
asteroid field more easily. They need to find the others and head toward Toa.
The Toan planet/moon comes alive with the energy of the Toans and moves out of
Serran orbit and travels across the system toward the twin stars. Trogo and
Umid finally reach the moving planet and are reunited with Kara and Tova.

As the Toan planet nears the twin stars, the Celestials are
starting to regain their energy by draining solar energy. All of the energy from
the planet starts to channel through Tova’s body and she can hear all of the
Toans minds. She sees flashes from the past of the Toans being taken by the
Ohmanti and the other races overthrowing their tyranny. She sees the planet
next to a sun, and the sun splitting in two and destroying the planet. She learns
that Ohm was the planet in the middle of the system and when the star split in
two, it destroyed the Ohmanti home world and allowed the other races to drive
them away.

The Celestials gather between the stars and start to absorb
more energy. Simultaneously, Tova starts to channel the green energy of the
Toans and begins to glow with their power. She is lifted from the ground and
electricity starts to discharge from her body. She expels a huge beam of green
energy toward the Celestials and the Celestials send one back of solar energy.
The two beams start to hit each other and fragment. The green energy starts to
fight its way through the celestials and they too become green.

The green energy is actually the Toans themselves and they
begin to communicate with the Celestials, reminding them that they are one and
the same and that they have had their freedom taken away from them. The Toans
promise that they can coexist and be one again like they used to be before the
Ohmanti.

The green energy returns to the surface of Toa and dissipates
through the ground. The Celestials descend from between the twin stars and say
that they will help destroy the Ohmanti threat and restore balance to the
system.

At this point the Ohmanti ships are drawing ever closer to
our heroes. Toa begins to move again and heads toward the Ohmanti armada. They meet
in the dead of space and Hakai tells the heroes to surrender.  He says he will make their deaths swift and
painless if they do as he says. He says that he has armies on each of the major
planets of the system and that there are neutron bombs with each of them,
powerful enough to destroy each world. Our heroes stand up to Hakai and tell
him that they will not stop fighting until the end and that he may have taken
their physical individuality from them, but that he will never take their
spirit and their will to fight.

Tova again channels the energy of the Toans and this time
the Celestials too.

She fires at the Ohmanti fleet and the combined energy tears
through the ships, causing massive amounts of damage. Escape pods leave the
Ohmanti ships and they flee from the system.

The team end up on New Earth where they reverse engineer
what the Celestials did to the Terrans and they are finally able to go out in
the sunlight. Their hair stays white, but their eye color returns, allowing
them to be in sunlight.

"OHM"

10 part HBO series

This story is set eons before the movie trilogy.

The galaxy is vast, and the story is set before the sun
split into two. Ohm is the planet that is close to the sun and orbits it on a
fixed axis, meaning the planet orbits the sun, but it does not rotate. Half of
the planet is constantly in direct sunlight and due to the proximity to the
star, is blazing hot and uninhabitable. The dark side of the planet is home to
the Ohmanti, a race of reptilian humanoids who rule through fear and
intimidation. They are tall and are covered from head to toe in hardened
metallic scales. This makes them very hard to kill, as their scales are almost
impenetrable. The only way to get through the scales is to stab under them
where they fold over one another. They also wear thick yet light armor that is
made from the bones of giant worms that live under the surface of Ohm. They dig
and hunt the worms for both food and for their exoskeletons to make their
weapons and armor. Being reptilian in nature, they do not have the portion of
the brain that allows them to feel empathy and compassion. They are highly
sophisticated but rule through fear and intimidation. They are animalistic in a
sense as they rely on their physical attributes and scaly tough exterior to
intimidate and implement their fascist-like rule.

The show will focus on how the Ohm have enslaved the
inhabitants of the galaxy, but as this is set long before the movie trilogy,
the galaxy looks somewhat different. As previously stated, the sun has not
split yet, so there is only one star in the system.

**New Earth** is
uninhabited and is a planet ruled by giant animals both reptilian (dinosaurs)
and mammalian (king kong).

**Kazar** is
primitive, with a warrior clan society structure. They do have technology that
is somewhat advanced, but they do not use it very much, only to help them grow
food on the barren lands that surround them. They have chiefs and warriors who
ride the dragons that inhabit the skies. They call themselves the Zargon Riders
as the Dragons are called Zargons back then.

**Serrous** is still
a dessert planet, inhabited by the humanoid armadillo people. The people of
Serrous, the Serrans, look the same as in the trilogy. They have not changed in
eons as their environment has no required them to change. They are a warrior
race and use their physical prowess to fight back against the Ohmanti.

The Celestials do not exist in the galaxy yet, so they are
not a part of the story. The Toans are still energy lifeforms that exists on
their planet, interacting with the plant life and existing as a mere part of
the ecosystem. They are fully conscious and help keep balance on their planet
between the different lifeforms.

On **Kondol**, the
people are still fish like and live under the water. A meteor shower passed
through the galaxy and the debris formed into a set of rings around the planet.
These rings have started changing the Kondai people. The radiation given off by
the rings causes them to develop telepathic abilities.

**Episode 1:**

The scene starts out on Ohm, in the council. The Ohmanti are
preparing to experiment on the other worlds. They are plotting to start with
the Toans since they are energy lifeforms and the Ohmanti don’t see them as too
much of a threat.

Lead by **Kasai**,
the Ohmanti ready their ships to fly out to Toa.

The Ohmanti set out to Toa with massive devices to capture
the energy lifeforms and contain them. They descend on the planet with their
large spiked ships. They begin to capture the lifeforms with energy nets that
create an electromagnetic damper around the Toans, causing them to destabilize.
This allows the Ohmanti to put them inside large glass container pods and take
them back to their planet. They capture ten or so of the Toans and then go back
to Ohm.

We then see the Ohmanti performing experiments on the Toans
and this is where the episode ends.

**Episode 2:**

Set on Kazar, the opening scene is of a huge spiny dragon
flying through the stormy skies and landing heavily in front of a group of
worshipers. The Kazari are standing at a large stone alter, holding up dead
animals that they have killed as an offering for the dragon that we come to
know as “**Zargona**”. Unlike in the
trilogy, the Kazari are a pale grey colour instead of blue. This is an
adaptation that they gain over the generations to their blue/grey planet that
is filled with storms.

The Kazari have technology but lead a more primitive
expistence, living in huts constructed of metal spikes and animal skins to
connect them. This is a very different picture from the trilogy where they live
in large all black sleek structures. We are introduced to **Tena**, a distant ancestor of Tova, our main character from the
trilogy but this will be revealed later in the story.

The scene goes back to Ohm, where Kasai is talking about the
progress on the Toans experiment subjects. He is told that they are finding it
hard to alter them as they are energy beings that don’t have DNA so to speak.
Kasai is outraged and kills the head scientist in a fit of rage, showing his
strength by devoring the head of the slain by unhinging his jaw. He then wipes
blood from his jaw and tells them it is time to proceed with the rest of the
plan.

**Episode 3:**

Ships start to descend on Kondol and the fish people
scramble to escape. They flee beneath the surface and regroup in an underwater
cavern. Here we meet **Scol**, the
princess of the Kondai who is the daughter of the King. The King has been
captured and now Scol must lead her people in order to save them. Luckily, they
have learned to harness their telepathic abilities and Scol is able to lead
them silently to a safer location.

The Ohmanti decree their rule over Kondol and that the
remainder of the people must come out of hiding and surrender to them. Kasai
says that he will spare the King and Queen if they surrender. Scol decides to
come to the surface and surrender to the Ohmanti, but as they see her, they
kill her parents, and eat them in front of her. **Mizu**, Kasai’s sister and general is outraged at how barbaric her
brother is becoming. She leaves Kondol and tells Kasai that she no longer wants
to be a part of this. She says that she thought this was about unifying the
people of the galaxy and bringing order, not killing everyone and experimenting
on them.

We jump back to Kazar where they receive a distress message
from Kondol. It is Scol begging for help as her people are not weaponized or
able to properly defend themselves. They do not have weapons or any military
ability as they simply coexisting with their natural environment.

Tena visits the council and tells them of the message he
received. He says that they must take action but the council is not in
agreeance with him. He says that if they don’t help them what is to stop the
Ohmanti from coming to Kazar next? The council states that their god’s, the
Zargon’s will protect them and to have faith in their power.

The council tells Tena that they have been working on new
technologies to protect them from the impending threat and that they would not
get involved.

**Episode 4:**

A Serran ship comes to Kazar, on board are a large group of
warriors lead by **King Trizor**. Trizor
comes to meet with the council on Kazar and pleads with them to join a
coalition to fight back against the Ohmanti. He states that they have sent
several ships that have been unsuccessful against the Serran warriors.

Trizor explains that the Ohmanti are taking over the entire
galaxy, one species at a time and that they must all work together to stop
them. They have technology far more advanced than the other races and are
physically very strong. He explains though that since the Ohmanti are one race,
that if all of the others work together they will have strength in numbers.
Tena agrees with Trizor and attempts to persuade the council. They say that
their defenses have been perfect and they unveil the Star Shield generators
that they have been creating.

Huge red force fields begin to emerge around the city. They
reach up into the skies and encase the entire city. The council explains that
nothing can break through them and that they will be safe.

Mizu is back on Ohm and she is rallying a group of Ohmanti
to fight back against her brother. She finds others of like mind who do not
believe in the mindless killing and see themselves as peaceful and want to
share their technology and advancements with the other races. She and her
comrades get onto a ship and head to Kazar to meet with Tena and the council.

**Episode 5:**

We arrive on Serrous, where a group of Serran warriors are
fighting a hoard of Ohmanti soldiers. A vicious war is underway and both sides
are taking heavy casualties. The Serrans appear to be winning, until the
Ohmanti send down huge metal pods. They open up to reveal the creatures that
inhabit what becomes New Earth. They are dinosaur like giant reptiles that have
heavily clad armor plating that the Ohmanti have placed on them. These
creatures begin to decimate the Serran troops and victory seems inevitable.

The Serran’s retreat to the caves that they live in
underground, revealing a huge catacomb of tunnels and ancient Serran
architecture that resembles Egyptian hieroglyphs. The dinosaur creatures cannot
go under the ground into the tunnels, but they send flying creatures in after
the Serran’s to destroy them.

We jump back to Kazar and King Trizor is pleading with Tena
to come with the Zargon’s (dragon’s) to defeat the dinosaur creatures. Tena
reluctantly agrees to ask the Zargon if they will help.

**Episode 5:**

Tena is on a stormy mountain top, being struck by lightning
and holding on through the perilous winds. A giant zargon descends from the
clouds and hovers above Tena. He begs for it to help fight the Ohmanti. The
zargon lets off a huge lightening discharge from its mouth upward that clears
the sky. Tena looks down in disappointment, but then hundreds of other zargon
appear and are ready to help.

We go back to Kasai on Kondol. He is holding the citadel
captive and is slaughtering the people of the world for not giving up the
location of the Princess Scol. She emerges from the water and offers to
surrender herself. She is floating atop the water when a huge whale emerges and
protects her from the Ohmanti. They begin to attack but the sea creatures all
come to the rescue and take Scol back to the depths. Some of the other Kondai
break free and escape also.

**Episode 6:**

King Trizon and Tena are aboard a Serran ship, headed for
Serrous. They have the zargons with them and are planning the attack on the
Ohmanti base on the planet.

The ships arrive and there is no one there. Kasai had been
planning this all along and knew that Kazar would be left defensless without
the zargon and he is already there.

We see the Ohmanti ships descending through the atmosphere
and opening fire on the Kazari people. They begin to flee towards the star
shield domes, but many do not make it. Once the Ohmanti reach the domes, they
find it impossible to breach them but Kasai screams out the he will break
through their defenses and kill them all. He and his team set out to surround
the dome and begin to attack it with everything they have.

We also see **Mizu**
on Ohm, planning to help the rebels fight against the Ohmanti and free them
from the oppression they face.

**Episode 7:**

King Trizor and Tena head back to Kazar but intercept a
transmission from Kondol. They send another transmission to the Linenians who
live on a planet on the outskirts of the galaxy. They receive no reply but hope
that they are heard as the Linenians are a highly skilled warrior clan.

They detour to Kondol to free the people of the water world.
They are successful as there are not many of the Ohmanti there. They take the
Ohmanti as prisoners and send a message to Kasai that they have captured his
people. Outraged, Kasai replies saying that he is going to burn Kazar to the
ground and that he was close to cracking the star shield.

We see Kasai unveiling a particle weapon to break through
the star shield. And attacking one of the domes. It holds against the weapon
but microfractures begin to form. Tena looks on in disbelief as the star shield
starts to crumble and the Ohmanti begin to invade the city.

Episode 8:

Tena and Trizor are on Kondol with Princess Scol. They must
get to Kazar to protect the people from Kasai. Princess Scol agrees to send
trained warriors with them. They reach Kazar and find the Star Shields breaking
down under the particle canons that the Ohmanti are using.

The Kazari release the Zargon’s and ther battle commences.
Electricity charges are flying through the air and the Ohmanti release the
dinosaur like creatures to combat them. On the ground level, the Kazari,
Serrans attack the Ohmanti. The Kondai take to the sky in ships to fight as
they are susceptible to extreme damage from the electricity (being water
lifeforms). Tena and Trizor fight their way to the citadel where the Ohmanti
are slaughtering innocents.

The horror that they witness causes Tena to break down as
all appears to be lost.

Episode 9:

Trizor shakes Tena and brings him back to the scene. He says
that they need to reach Kasai in order to win and they are so close. He is up
in the central tower of the citadel protected by his personal guard. Tena and
Trizor get up and begin fighting their way through the city, heading for Kasai.

The Kondai ships are flying above the city, firing down on
the Ohmanti, but begin to take heavy damage from the flying dinosaurs that the
Ohmanti have. They start to crash and explode on impact. The Serrans and Kazari
warriors look up and see their comrades falling and as they do, the dinosaur creatures
start to attack them too.

Episode 10:

All out war commences as the Toans, Kazari, Serrans, Linenians
and the defectors from Ohm fight back against the Ohmanti army. They are on Kazar
and the battle is raging.

Mizu and her group join Kasai and begin to discuss the war
plans. Mizu’s guard begins to attack Kasai’s and she states that he is a mad
man and that she won’t stand for his tyranny. As Trizor and Tena approach the
tower they see the fight occurring and rush in to join.

Just as Mizu is about to kill her brother, a light surrounds
Kasai and he is transported away onto his ship. It jumps to light speed and
disappears out of the atmosphere. There we see Kasai’s scientists experimenting
on a green energy Toans and as they hurt them more they begin to turn a white
gold colour.
