ACT II - HUMANITY
EXT. SUMERIAN PLAIN - DAWN
The ziggurat now stands complete, a monument to cooperation between humans and Anunnaki. The first golden rays of sunlight illuminate its stepped structure.
AHMARU, a wise elder human with piercing eyes and a long white beard, stands beside MAROUK KAEL, a younger, muscular human leader.
AHMARU
(gazing at ziggurat)
What the gods have taught us will echo through generations.
MAROUK KAEL
But at what price, father? We build their temples, mine their gold, tend their gardens. Are we truly partners or merely servants with knowledge?
AHMARU
Knowledge is never a chain, my son. It is the key to our liberation.
Emerald Tablet:
“It is true, without falsehood, certain and most true:
That which is Below corresponds to that which is Above,
and that which is Above corresponds to that which is Below.”
ACT II - HUMANITY
EXT. ENKI'S GARDEN - DAY
A lush paradise with exotic plants and flowing water. ENKI walks with SESHAT, a tall, elegant Anunnaki female with calculating eyes and a headdress adorned with a seven-pointed star. She carries scrolls and measuring instruments.
ENKI
The humans progress faster than anticipated. Their capacity for learning exceeds our projections.
SESHAT
(unrolling a scroll)
Their neural pathways are developing rapidly. The genetic modifications you introduced are expressing beyond initial parameters.
Book of Enoch (1 Enoch 7):
“And they taught them charms and enchantments,
and the cutting of roots, and made them acquainted with plants.
And they became pregnant, and they bare great giants.”
ENKI
My brother sees this as a threat. I see it as vindication.
SESHAT
Lord YAHWEH has summoned a council meeting. He speaks of containment measures.
ENKI
(frowning)
Always the administrator, never the creator.
EXT. HUMAN SETTLEMENT - DAY
A thriving community with stone buildings, irrigation systems, and cultivated fields. MAROUK KAEL instructs younger humans in combat techniques using wooden staves.
INANNA, a striking Anunnaki female with fierce eyes and warrior's bearing, watches from nearby.
INANNA
You train them as warriors now, Marouk Kael?
MAROUK KAEL
(continuing the drill)
I train them to protect what they've built, Lady Inanna.
INANNA
(approaching, circling him)
Protection requires more than wooden sticks. It requires... strategy.
She moves with lightning speed, disarming him and pinning him to the ground.
INANNA
(smiling)
I could teach them. If you wish.
MAROUK KAEL
(breathless)
Why would you arm those you consider beneath you?
INANNA
(helping him up)
Not all Anunnaki share YAHWEH's view of humanity's place.
Enuma Elish:
“He imposed the gods’ service upon them
and let them carry the gods’ burdens.
The gods had created war, but not the humans.”
INT. COUNCIL CHAMBER - ATLANTIS - DAY
A circular room with a crystalline dome. Light refracts through the structure, creating patterns on the floor. ENKI, THOTH, and several advanced humans discuss plans around a holographic projection of Earth.
EL'AZAR, a human-Anunnaki hybrid with luminous blue eyes and noble bearing, points to regions on the map.
EL'AZAR
Our settlements now extend to these five regions. Trade networks are established. Knowledge spreads.
THOTH
As does concern among the conservative faction. Enlil views each new human achievement as a threat to Anunnaki authority.
ENKI
My brother forgets that we came here as miners, not gods. It was convenience that cast us in that role.
ADVANCED HUMAN SCIENTIST
The crystal technology has advanced to phase three capability. We can now harness Earth's magnetic field for energy transmission.
ENKI
(nodding)
Good. Atlantis must become self-sufficient before the Council votes.
EL'AZAR
There are rumors, Lord Enki. Whispers of Lemuria rising in the East.
ENKI
(concerned)
Lemuria? Yahweh's domain?
EL'AZAR
Yes. They build their own civilization, but with different principles. They worship Yahweh not as teacher, but as absolute divine authority.
THOTH
Two paths for humanity now unfold. Ours of knowledge and self-determination...
ENKI
And Yahweh's of obedience and faith.
EXT. LEMURIA - CENTRAL TEMPLE - DAY
A majestic city built into mountain terraces. Unlike Atlantis's crystal and metal structures, Lemurian architecture blends with nature, buildings seemingly grown from living stone and wood.
YAHWEH, stern and commanding, addresses a gathering of devoted followers. Beside him stands METATRON, his chief advisor, tall and imposing with eyes that reflect starlight.
YAHWEH
The Atlanteans corrupt MY plan! They give humans knowledge without wisdom, power without restraint.
METATRON
(to the crowd)
Remember the sacred law: Knowledge must follow devotion. Power must follow righteousness.
The crowd chants in response, a rhythmic prayer-like affirmation.
ZOPHIEL, a female Lemurian priestess with alabaster skin and flowing silver hair, steps forward.
ZOPHIEL
The visions grow stronger, Lord Yahweh. I see waters rising, earth trembling. Atlantis creates imbalance in the planetary energies.
YAHWEH
Then we must prepare. Enki's experiment threatens not just Anunnaki authority, but Earth's stability itself.
INT. YAHWEH'S COMMAND CENTER - NIGHT
YAHWEH watches surveillance feeds showing human advancements. NINURTA stands at attention while ADAD, YAHWEH's weather operations commander, reviews data.
YAHWEH
They build ships now. Explore beyond their designated zones. Some even attempt to replicate our technology.
ADAD The atmospheric monitoring stations show increased instability. The human activities affect patterns we established for optimal mining conditions.
NINURTA
We should implement containment protocols immediately.
YAHWEH
No. First, I will petition Anu directly. Prepare a communication array.
EXT. HUMAN SETTLEMENT - NIGHT
A secret gathering in a cave illuminated by torches. AHMARU addresses a group of humans and sympathetic Anunnaki.
AHMARU
The division grows not just between human and Anunnaki, but among the star people themselves. We must navigate carefully.
SESHAT
Enki's faction believes in human potential, but YahWeh's group sees only tools growing beyond their intended purpose.
MAROUK KAEL
And what of Lemuria? Their messengers speak of submission to Yahweh as the only path.
EL'AZAR
Two visions for humanity's future. Neither may be entirely right or wrong.
INANNA steps from the shadows, surprising the gathering.
INANNA
There is a third path.
AHMARU
(cautious)
Lady Inanna. We did not expect your presence.
INANNA
Few ever do. That is my advantage. (addressing all) Atlantis offers knowledge without restraint. Lemuria offers faith without question. Neither acknowledges humanity's true strength.
MAROUK KAEL
Which is?
INANNA
The passion to forge your own destiny. Neither gods nor servants—partners in creation.
EXT. ATLANTEAN OBSERVATORY - NIGHT
Thoth and advanced human scientists monitor celestial movements through crystal instruments. The mood is tense.
THOTH
The alignments suggest increasing instability. Earth's magnetic field fluctuates beyond normal parameters.
ADVANCED HUMAN ASTRONOMER
Could our crystal energy network be affecting planetary systems?
THOTH
(concerned)
Possibly. Or something else entirely. The cosmos speaks in patterns we're still learning to interpret.
EXT. LEMURIAN MOUNTAIN SHRINE - DAWN
RAZIEL, Yahweh's master of mysteries, performs a ritual with ZOPHIEL. They channel energy through ancient symbols carved into living stone.
RAZIEL
The balance shifts. Earth itself responds to the conflict between Atlantis and our path.
ZOPHIEL
(eyes glowing with power)
I see waters rising. Continents shifting. The planet itself rebels against division.
RAZIEL
Then Yahweh's prophecy approaches fulfillment. Prepare the arks.
INT. ENKI'S PRIVATE CHAMBER - ATLANTIS - NIGHT
Enki studies ancient texts while EL'AZAR enters with urgent news.
EL'AZAR
Lord Enki, we've intercepted communications. YahWeh has contacted Anu directly. He requests intervention.
ENKI
(grim)
Then we have little time. The experiment must be preserved, even if Atlantis cannot be.
EL'AZAR
You speak of abandoning the city?
ENKI
I speak of ensuring humanity's future. Knowledge must survive, whatever comes.
EXT. SUMERIAN PLAIN - DAY
Marouk Kael leads a group of humans in constructing new dwellings away from Anunnaki supervision. Ahmaru teaches children writing and mathematics.
AHMARU
Remember these symbols. They contain our history, our knowledge. Whatever happens, these must survive.
A shadow falls across the gathering. INANNA stands at the perimeter, watching.
MAROUK KAEL
(approaching her)
Have you come to report our unsanctioned activities to YahWeh?
INANNA
(smiling enigmatically)
I've come to add to your lessons. (to the children) Knowledge is power, but wisdom is knowing when to use it.
She draws a symbol in the sand with her staff—an eight-pointed star.
INANNA
This is my sign. If you ever need protection, draw this.
EXT. ATLANTIS - CENTRAL PLAZA - DAY
A massive gathering. Enki addresses thousands of advanced humans and sympathetic Anunnaki.
ENKI
The Council has ruled. YahWeh has spoken. Our experiment is deemed too dangerous to continue in its current form.
Murmurs of concern ripple through the crowd.
ENKI
But what we've built together—this knowledge, this civilization—will not be lost. Even now, ships depart for distant shores, carrying seeds of Atlantean wisdom.
THOTH steps forward.
THOTH
We have prepared repositories of knowledge in key locations across Earth. Some obvious, some hidden. Future generations will discover them when ready.
SESHAT
We've encoded the most critical knowledge into the human genetic memory itself. It can never be fully erased.
EXT. LEMURIAN HARBOR - DAY
Massive wooden vessels being loaded with animals, plants, and supplies. YAHWEH oversees the operation with METATRON and ZOPHIEL.
YAHWEH
The waters will rise as prophesied. Earth will cleanse itself of the Atlantean corruption. But the faithful will survive.
METATRON
The arks are nearly complete. Each carries selected humans who have proven their devotion.
ZOPHIEL
(troubled)
And those not chosen? Millions will perish.
YAHWEH
(stern)
The cycle demands renewal. From destruction comes rebirth. This is the way of creation.
INT. ENLIL'S WAR ROOM - NIGHT
YahWeh reviews final preparations with his commanders.
YahWeh
The atmospheric control systems have been reconfigured. When activated, they will trigger a planetary cleansing event.
NINURTA
The human populations have grown too numerous to relocate. Most will be lost.
YahWeh
(cold)
A necessary correction. Afterward, we begin again, with clearer boundaries.
ADAD
What of Enki's followers? The Atlanteans?
ENLIL/YAhWeh
My brother was given warning. What he does with it is his concern.
EXT. MOUNTAINSIDE - NIGHT
Ahmaru, Marouk Kael, and a group of selected humans climb toward a cave entrance. El'azar guides them.
EL'AZAR
These caverns extend deep into the Earth. They are fortified with Anunnaki technology. You will be safe here.
MAROUK KAEL
How many such shelters exist?
EL'AZAR
Enough. Lord Enki has prepared for this possibility for centuries.
AHMARU
(looking back at the plains below)
So much to be lost. So much to rebuild.
EL'AZAR
Not lost. Transformed. You carry the seeds of a new beginning.
INT. ATLANTIS CONTROL CENTER - NIGHT
Enki, Thoth, and Seshat monitor energy patterns across the globe. Alarm signals flash.
THOTH
The magnetic field destabilizes further. Enlil has activated the atmospheric systems.
ENKI
Sooner than expected. We must accelerate the final phase.
SESHAT
The knowledge arks are launched. Genetic encoding is complete. The chosen bloodlines carry the markers.
ENKI
Then it is time. (activates communication) Attention all Atlanteans. The transition begins now. Proceed to your designated locations. Remember what we've taught you. Remember who you truly are.
EXT. ATLANTIC OCEAN - AERIAL VIEW - NIGHT
Storm clouds gather over Atlantis. The ocean churns violently. The crystalline towers of the city glow with intense energy.
SUPER: "THE GREAT CATACLYSM BEGINS"
Sumerian Lament for Ur:
“The storm crushed the city like a flood,
the people were like reeds in the water.
The land wept, broken beneath divine wrath.”
EXT. ATLANTIS - CENTRAL PLAZA - NIGHT
As waters begin to rise and structures shake, Enki stands calmly in the center. Around him, advanced humans and Anunnaki allies board transport vessels or activate personal protection devices.
ENKI
(to himself)
Not an end. A seed planted for a distant flowering.
A brilliant flash of light erupts from the central crystal tower, shooting skyward.
Book of Thoth / Hermetica XIII:
“This knowledge will be hidden from the many
and revealed to the few who seek the light.
It shall survive in silence, as stars survive the day.”
EXT. LEMURIAN MOUNTAIN - NIGHT
Yahweh watches as the massive arks are sealed. Earthquake tremors shake the ground.
YAHWEH
The cleansing begins. When waters recede, a new covenant will guide humanity.
METATRON And the Atlantean knowledge?
YAHWEH
What survives will be controlled. Humanity must evolve at the proper pace, under proper guidance.
EXT. CAVE ENTRANCE - NIGHT
Marouk Kael stands at the entrance, watching distant flashes of light and rising waters on the horizon. Inanna appears behind him.
INANNA
It is time to seal the entrance, Marouk Kael.
MAROUK KAEL
So many left behind.
INANNA
Not abandoned. Their stories will live through you. Their essence will return in future generations.
She places a hand on his shoulder, then traces her eight-pointed star symbol on the cave wall.
INANNA
Remember my sign. In darkest times, call upon it. I will hear.
INT. DEEP UNDERGROUND CHAMBER - NIGHT
Ahmaru sits with children and adults gathered around him. Above, they hear the rumble of catastrophe.
AHMARU
And so we begin the long night. But remember—we carry the light within us. The knowledge of the stars. The memory of our teachers. The promise of return.
He opens a crystal device that projects a holographic image of Earth as it once was, and as it might be again.
AHMARU
This is not our end. It is humanity's true beginning.
Epic of Gilgamesh (Tablet XI):
“The hearts of the great gods moved them to inflict the Flood.
Their divine fire blazed, their storm roared.
But one man they instructed to build a vessel, to preserve life.”
FADE TO BLACK.
