FADE UP:

Grey clouds of an earlymorning sky.

BAKER (V.O.)

Once upon a time, in a far off

kingdom, there lay a smallvillage at

the edge of the woods...

frame and lands on what we thought was the sky, but in fact

is simply its reflection in a puddle of water. A strong CHORD

accents the splash and we begin a musical vamp.
