Scene: JON PROTAGONIST enters the ROYAL HALL. He is WEATHERED and SCARRED but in a PHOTOGENIC way. He strides up to the throne, past rows of GUARDS and kneels before the KING
JP: Your majesty.
The KING is FAT and ENGLISH so you know he's EVIL. He raises his SCEPTER.
K: Jon Protagonist! You're alive.
The KING waves his SCEPTER. Jon stands
K: What of Protagonist Keep?
JP: Overrun, your majesty. The Other Guys struck like cowards without warning, at night.
The KING laughs, FATLY
K: Like cowards? This is war, Jon Protagonist! Let this be a lesson!
The KING's smile fades
K: Honor sucks ass, Jon Protagonist. Honor... sucks ass.
JON's eyes narrow. His hair FLOWS HEROICALLY, inside, somehow.
JP: Your majesty, honor...
SLAM-CUT to a medium shot of the castle
JP (voiceover): ...is good as hell.
