Core Narrative 5

Vente Failure

Basic Concept

As the surface of the planet becomes more and more uninhabitable because of the heat, people start packing up and moving either into the forest or underground. The story follows Kira and her family and they attempt to start their new life in the forest. On their journey, they get abducted by a cult who worships the ever-expanding sun. The cult claims that sacrificing unworthy lives to the sun will stop its expansion.

The Hero - Kira

Physical Goal – To escape the cult and get her family to safety before the sun burns them to death.

Emotional Goal -  To continue to provide for her family no matter the cost.

Personal Obstacle – Her family is quite poor and almost every member has some sort of disability.

The villain – Son of the Sun.

Justification – The son of the Sun is the leader of the Sun cult. He believes that sacrificing people will stop the sun from expanding. Using special leaves from the forest, he’s created clothes that block the suns heat, preventing the sun from burning them to death. Because of this he believes he and his people are the chosen ones to survive the suns death.

1. Kirina – Kira’s mother who is blind in one eye.

2. Cremar – A person in the cult who helps Kira kill the Son.

3. Moly – Another person captured by the Sun cult.

Locations

2. Zon – The building where the sacrificial ceremonies take place.

Logline

As the surface of the planet heats up, more and more people move underground or into the forest.

Fearing being sacrificed, Kira must help her family and other captors escape before they get sacrificed or worse, get burned to death by the sun.

A podcast is very cost efficient and an entertaining way to please our demographic. I haven’t met a single millennial that doesn’t listen to a podcast. Either for entertainment, knowledge, or advice, podcasts are a great way to tell stories.
