Wide, cinematic shots of Yosemite Valley’s majestic
landscape. The sun rises over towering granite cliffs,
casting light on waterfalls, dense forests, and sweeping
meadows. The valley is breathtaking and ancient, filled with
an ethereal beauty.
NARRATOR (V.O.)
For thousands of years, Yosemite
Valley has been more than a place.
It’s a spirit. A protector. Those
who walk its paths feel it, though
only a few understand its power.
We hear the faint echo of Native American chanting as the
view shifts through different parts of the valley.
EXT. YOSEMITE TRAILS – DAY
LENA WALKER (30s), a seasoned park ranger, strides along a
trail. She’s tough but kind-eyed, with an intense respect for
her surroundings. She pauses, looking out over the valley,
visibly moved by the view.
LENA (V.O.)
People think the land is ours to
use. But here... you know the land
has a life of its own.
A faint breeze stirs, rustling the trees around her. She
glances at the forest, as if sensing something.
Her radio crackles to life.
DISPATCH (V.O.)
Ranger Walker, we’ve got activity
near the Mariposa Grove.
Trespassers.
Lena’s eyes narrow, and she picks up her pace.
LENA
Copy that. Heading over now.

Guardians of the Grove
EXT. MARIPOSA GROVE – DAY
Lena arrives at Mariposa Grove, finding a group of workers
from Verity Energy.
They’re wearing uniforms and setting up surveying equipment.
The team is led by MARCUS HALE (40s), sharp-dressed,
confident, and exuding entitlement.
LENA
(to the group)
This area is off-limits. Pack it up
and leave.
Marcus looks over, unimpressed.
MARCUS
Ranger Walker, I presume?
(smirking) We have clearance to
survey here. Verity Energy has a
contract.
LENA
That contract doesn’t cover sacred
sites. (gestures to the grove) This
isn’t just any land.
MARCUS
All the more reason to explore,
don’t you think? Some would say
it’s hiding something valuable.
They lock eyes in a silent standoff.
LENA
Not valuable to you. Last
warning—leave or face penalties.
Marcus doesn’t back down but signals his team to pack up. He
watches Lena closely, a hint of disdain in his eyes.
MARCUS
We’ll be seeing more of each other,
Ranger.
Lena watches them go, visibly disturbed by the encounter.
INT. PARK RANGER OFFICE – NIGHT
Lena sits at her desk, reviewing paperwork. The room is
quiet, with just the hum of the light above her. She pulls
out an old, weathered leather journal from a drawer.
She opens it to the first page, revealing an inscription:
"Ethan Walker, 1851." The journal contains sketches of
Yosemite’s landscapes, maps, and writings.
LENA (V.O.)
My ancestor, Ethan Walker. They say
he came here with the Mariposa
Battalion... but he left with more
than he found.
She flips through the pages, stopping at a sketch of a
warrior woman standing in front of Yosemite’s Half Dome. In
flowing script, it reads, "Kali, Guardian of Ahwahnee."
FLASHBACK TO:
EXT. YOSEMITE VALLEY – NIGHT (1851)
Ethan Walker (30s), dressed in rugged pioneer clothes, sits
by a campfire, writing in his journal. Across the fire sits
KALI (20s), an Ahwahneechee warrior with an intense, watchful
gaze.
ETHAN
Tell me again... why do you stay
here, knowing what’s coming?
KALI
This valley is part of me. It’s
alive... it protects itself from
those who seek to harm it.
Ethan looks around, sensing the power of the valley but
unable to fully understand.
ETHAN
You’re risking your life for this
place. I’ve seen what my own men
will do.
KALI
Then join me. Help protect it. You
don’t belong with them, Ethan.
Ethan looks away, conflicted, but a spark of agreement lights
in his eyes.
INT. PARK RANGER OFFICE – NIGHT (PRESENT DAY)
Lena snaps back to the present, closing the journal
thoughtfully. Her phone buzzes—it’s a message from her
colleague, SAMMY BLACKWOOD (40s), a local historian with
Indigenous roots.
TEXT FROM SAMMY
"Need you at Bridalveil Falls first thing. I found
something."
Lena’s eyes linger on the journal, then she sets it down and
picks up her ranger hat, a look of determination on her face.

Guardians of the Valley
EXT. BRIDALVEIL FALLS – EARLY MORNING
Lena arrives at Bridalveil Falls, where Sammy stands
examining the base of the waterfall. He turns as she
approaches, his expression serious.
SAMMY
Lena, you’re not going to believe
this.
He points to a spot where the earth has been disturbed,
revealing ancient stone carvings partially buried in the
dirt.
LENA
These markings... they’re
Ahwahneechee.
SAMMY
Yes. These were warnings, left by
the guardians.
LENA
(to herself)
Warnings for what?
They continue to examine the markings, which depict a series
of spirals leading toward a single symbol: a handprint
surrounded by rays, almost like a sun.
SAMMY
This symbol here... it represents
the "Heart of the Valley." The
place where the spirit of Yosemite
lives.
Lena’s face darkens, realizing the potential threat Verity
Energy could pose if they uncovered it.
EXT. YOSEMITE TRAILS – LATER THAT DAY
Lena and Sammy hike through the trails, guided by a sketch in
Ethan’s journal that matches the symbol. They search for more
clues about the location of the valley’s heart.
SAMMY
Your ancestor’s journal... it could
be the key. Ethan was one of the
few who ever knew about the
valley’s secrets.
LENA
He mentions a warrior, Kali. She
trusted him enough to tell him...
but why?
SAMMY
Some believe that the valley
chooses its guardians. It’s not
about blood—it’s about the soul.
Lena contemplates this, understanding the weight of her
responsibility.
EXT. SACRED GROVE – LATE AFTERNOON
They arrive at a grove surrounded by ancient trees. Lena
kneels, examining the ground where faint symbols are carved
into the roots.
SAMMY
These carvings... they’re hundreds
of years old. They mark the path to
the heart.
Suddenly, a gust of wind whips through the trees, carrying
faint echoes of chanting. Lena and Sammy exchange a look,
sensing they’re not alone.
INT. VERITY ENERGY TEMPORARY CAMP – SUNSET
Marcus stands with Dr. Fiona Keller, a cold but intellectual
archaeologist in her 40s. She’s reviewing survey data.
DR. KELLER
Our scans detected something
unusual just north of Bridalveil
Falls. I think we’re close.
MARCUS
Good. Ranger Walker’s becoming a
problem. Let’s find what we came
for before she interferes again.
Dr. Keller gives him a skeptical look.
DR. KELLER
You really believe in these
stories, don’t you?
MARCUS
What I believe is that there’s
power here. And we’re going to be
the ones to harness it.

The Heart of the Valley
EXT. YOSEMITE WOODS – SUNSET
Lena and Sammy continue hiking, the atmosphere growing eerie
as the sun sets. Shadows lengthen, and the valley seems to
come alive.
SAMMY
Do you feel it?
LENA
(slightly shaken)
Yes. It’s like... something’s
watching.
They push forward, reaching an ancient stone altar half-
buried in the earth. This is the Heart of the Valley.
SAMMY
This is it. The heart. If Verity
Energy finds this, they’ll destroy
everything.
Lena places her hand on the altar, feeling an electric
connection. The sky darkens, and the wind picks up around
them. They both step back as the shadows seem to gather,
forming the faint outline of spectral figures.
LENA
(whispering)
We’re not alone.
FADE OUT.
FADE IN:
EXT. YOSEMITE VALLEY – NIGHT
The valley is still, bathed in moonlight. Shadows shift
across the landscape, almost as if the valley itself is
breathing. An owl calls in the distance, echoing through the
silence.
INT. SAMMY’S CABIN – NIGHT
Lena and Sammy sit at a small table covered in artifacts and
Ethan’s journal. A nearby lamp casts flickering light, giving
the room a warm but tense atmosphere.
SAMMY
(pointing to a passage in
the journal)
Look here. Ethan wrote about a
place called "The Altar of
Shadows." He described it as the
valley’s final defense—somewhere
that can only be found by those the
valley deems worthy.
LENA
The Altar of Shadows... is that
what we found today?
SAMMY
Maybe. But Ethan wrote that the
true heart of the valley lies
deeper. (pauses) He said it’s
guarded by the spirits of those who
died protecting it.
Lena looks at Sammy, her face etched with concern.
LENA
If Verity gets close... those
spirits will defend it. And we
might not be able to stop what
happens next.
Sammy nods, understanding the gravity of the situation.
SAMMY
You have a choice, Lena. You can
walk away... or you can finish what
Ethan started.
Lena contemplates this, the weight of her family’s legacy
pressing on her.

Awakening the Valley
EXT. VERITY ENERGY TEMPORARY CAMP – NIGHT
Marcus and Dr. Keller study geological data under a makeshift
canopy. The equipment hums with activity, mapping the
valley’s subsurface.
DR. KELLER
These energy signatures are unlike
anything I’ve seen. It’s as if the
valley’s alive with... something.
(hesitates) Maybe the stories
aren’t just stories.
MARCUS
Stories won’t matter once we
harness this energy. The valley’s
"spirit" will be the power we need.
They’re interrupted by a loud crash as one of the machines
short-circuits. Sparks fly, and the workers back away,
startled.
WORKER
It’s like the equipment doesn’t
want to work out here... there’s
interference.
MARCUS
(irritated)
It’s a machine, not a ghost. Fix
it.
Dr. Keller gives Marcus a wary look, starting to feel uneasy.
EXT. YOSEMITE TRAILS – EARLY MORNING
Lena and Sammy hike through the misty trails, guided by
Ethan’s journal. The valley feels unusually silent, and
Lena’s expression is tense.
SAMMY
The valley’s restless. It knows
Verity’s getting closer.
LENA
So do we. (pauses, looking around)
I just hope we’re ready for
whatever’s coming.
They press forward, following a hidden trail that twists
through dense forest.
EXT. SACRED CAVE – MID-MORNING
Lena and Sammy arrive at a narrow, almost invisible cave
entrance. Inside, the stone walls are covered with ancient
symbols that glow faintly in the dim light.
SAMMY
This must be the Altar of Shadows.
Lena steps forward, her hand brushing against the symbols.
She feels a sudden surge of energy, almost like an electric
shock.
LENA
It’s... alive.
She closes her eyes, hearing faint whispers. Visions flash in
her mind—Ethan, standing with Kali, both of them surrounded
by shadows, protecting the valley.

KALI
Once you vow to protect this
valley, it will never leave you.
Your spirit becomes one with the
land.
Ethan nods, accepting his place as a guardian. The shadows
envelop him and Kali, sealing their pact.
INT. SACRED CAVE – DAY (PRESENT)
Lena opens her eyes, breathless. Sammy watches her,

EXT. VERITY ENERGY DRILL SITE – LATER THAT DAY
Verity’s team has set up a larger camp with powerful drilling
equipment. Marcus watches as the drills pound into the earth,
while Dr. Keller monitors the readings with increasing
concern.
DR. KELLER
These readings... the ground is
reacting. We’re disturbing
something we don’t understand.
MARCUS

Exactly. That’s what makes it
valuable.
As the drilling intensifies, a deep rumble echoes through the
valley. Workers look around, unnerved.

valley’s fighting back.
SAMMY
We don’t have much time.
They pick up the pace, heading toward a secret ridge that
overlooks the Verity camp.
EXT. RIDGE OVERLOOKING VERITY CAMP – LATE AFTERNOON
Lena and Sammy reach the ridge and observe Verity’s camp
below. The drilling equipment is in full force, and Marcus
directs his team with ruthless focus.
LENA
We have to stop them. If they reach
the heart... who knows what will

Sammy looks over at Lena, worried but resolute.
SAMMY
Then let’s make sure they never get

They slip away from the ridge, determined to sabotage the
drilling operation.

Lena and Sammy approach Verity’s camp under the cover of

LENA
If we can disable the drills, it’ll

As they retreat, they hear shouting as Verity’s workers
discover the damage.

If you can hear me... if you can

both determined and tense.
CAPTAIN JONES

This land is claimed now. Anyone

force.
The battalion moves in, encountering Ahwahneechee men, women,
and children gathered in the valley. Their faces are solemn
but defiant.
ETHAN WALKER (younger and less rugged, wearing militia garb)

mission. He watches the frightened and resolute faces of the
Ahwahneechee, feeling a pang of doubt.*
CAPTAIN JONES (CONT'D)

warriors)
Move them out.
The soldiers begin herding the Ahwahneechee people,

This land is sacred. It will not
welcome you.

Walker, what’s the holdup?
ETHAN

Sir... maybe we should try another
way.
CAPTAIN JONES
We’re here to drive them out, not
negotiate.
Ethan clenches his fists, his loyalty divided. As the
Ahwahneechee are forced out, Kali’s intense gaze meets his.

The Race for the Artifact
EXT. SACRED CAVE – NIGHT
Lena stands in the sacred cave, contemplating her next move
after seeing the flashback of the Mariposa Battalion’s brutal
eviction of the Ahwahneechee people. Sammy joins her, holding
Ethan’s journal.
SAMMY
There’s more here. Ethan left
something behind... something he
kept hidden even from his own
people.
LENA
What do you mean?
Sammy flips to a folded page at the back of the journal,
revealing a cryptic map Ethan drew of a hidden chamber deep
within the valley.
SAMMY
It says there’s an artifact,
something Kali entrusted to him.
(pauses) She warned him it was
powerful—too powerful. He wrote
that it could “command the spirits
of the valley.” Ethan was supposed
to destroy it, but he couldn’t
bring himself to do it.
Lena’s eyes widen, realizing the weight of this revelation.
LENA
If Marcus finds it... he could use
it to control the valley.
SAMMY
Not just control it. He could use
it to turn the valley’s own spirits
against anyone who stands in his
way.
Lena’s face hardens with determination.
LENA
Then we have to find it first.
Before he does.

The Race for the Amulet
EXT. VERITY ENERGY CAMP – NIGHT
The camp is now in disarray, with Verity’s workers fleeing as
ghostly apparitions disrupt their operations. Marcus,
however, remains unshaken. He scans the forest, determined,
as he studies a digital version of Ethan’s map on his tablet.
MARCUS
(to himself)
If Ethan hid it... then it’s real.
And it’s mine.
He pockets the tablet and heads toward the direction of the
hidden chamber, rallying his few remaining mercenaries to
follow him.
EXT. YOSEMITE WOODS – NIGHT
Lena and Sammy, armed with Ethan’s original map, navigate the
dense forest under cover of night. The atmosphere is thick
with tension, and the valley feels more alive than ever, as
if guiding them.
LENA
If this artifact can control the
valley... why would Kali entrust it
to Ethan?
SAMMY
He was the only outsider she
believed in. But even he realized
the risk... it was too great to
leave it in anyone’s hands.
As they press forward, the trees around them seem to shift,
blocking their path. Lena looks up, sensing that the valley
itself is responding to their journey.
LENA
It’s like the valley’s testing us.
Making sure we’re worthy.
EXT. HIDDEN CHAMBER ENTRANCE – NIGHT
They reach the entrance to a secluded cave, marked by faint
Ahwahneechee carvings and symbols. Lena and Sammy hesitate,
exchanging a look.
SAMMY
This is it. The hidden chamber
Ethan wrote about.
They step inside, their flashlights illuminating the walls,
which are adorned with images of spirits, animals, and
natural forces. At the far end, there’s a pedestal holding a
small, ornate stone amulet—the artifact.
Lena approaches it cautiously, feeling its energy. Sammy
reaches out, stopping her.
SAMMY (CONT'D)
If Ethan couldn’t destroy it...
maybe we shouldn’t touch it either.
LENA
But if Marcus gets here first, he
could use it to turn the spirits
against us.

One mercenary stops, visibly spooked by a shadowy figure.
MERCENARY
Sir... something’s watching us.
MARCUS

Enough with the ghost stories. Keep
moving.
He pushes onward, his eyes fixed on the entrance to the
hidden chamber in the distance.
INT. HIDDEN CHAMBER – NIGHT
Lena, realizing time is running out, makes a decision. She
reaches for the amulet, picking it up. The moment she does,
the air in the chamber grows heavy, and shadows begin to move
across the walls.
SAMMY
Lena... something’s happening.
The chamber fills with an ominous energy as the ghostly forms
of Ahwahneechee warriors appear around them, their faces
expressionless and powerful. One of the spirits steps
forward—it’s Kali.
KALI (SPIRIT)
(directly to Lena)
You hold a burden few can bear. To
wield the power of the valley... is
to sacrifice oneself for it.
LENA
I’m ready. I’ll protect this
valley, no matter what.
Kali studies her for a moment, nodding in approval.
KALI
Then you are the valley’s guardian
now. But beware—such power cannot
be used without consequence.
The spirits fade back into the walls, leaving Lena and Sammy

The Valley's Wrath
EXT. HIDDEN CHAMBER ENTRANCE – NIGHT
Just as they turn to leave, Marcus and his mercenaries
arrive, blocking their exit. Marcus sees the amulet in Lena’s
hand and smiles, his eyes glinting with greed.
MARCUS
Well, well. You did all the hard
work for me.
LENA
You don’t understand what you’re
dealing with, Marcus. This isn’t
just a relic—it’s part of the
valley itself.
MARCUS
All I understand is that it’s
valuable. And it’s mine now.
He steps forward, reaching for the amulet. But the moment he
touches it, a powerful shock of energy throws him back,
leaving him stunned.
The ground begins to shake, and the ghostly warriors
reappear, circling around Marcus and his team. Their
expressions are fiercer, angrier, as if sensing Marcus’s
intentions.
INT. HIDDEN CHAMBER – NIGHT – FURTHER ACTION SEQUENCE
Lena realizes that she can now control the valley’s forces.
She raises the amulet, summoning the spirits with a powerful,
determined gaze.
LENA
(to the spirits)
Protect this land. Drive them out.
The spirits respond, advancing on Marcus and his team. Marcus
scrambles to his feet, terrified, as the ghostly warriors
begin to close in.
MARCUS
No... no! This can’t be happening!
The valley itself seems to join in the defense—trees sway
violently, branches snap, rocks roll down the hillside,
blocking all paths of escape. Lena watches, conflicted but
resolute.
SAMMY
Lena, the power... it’s
overwhelming. Be careful.
Lena grips the amulet tightly, feeling its pull on her soul.
LENA
I have to finish this. It’s the
only way.
She raises the amulet, using the last of its power to create
a protective barrier around the valley. The spirits surge
forward, and the valley erupts in a final, furious defense.
EXT. VERITY ENERGY CAMP – NIGHT
The ground opens up, swallowing what remains of Verity’s
equipment. Marcus’s mercenaries are either fleeing or subdued
by the valley’s forces. Marcus, desperate, tries to escape,
but he’s surrounded by spirits, his path blocked at every
turn.
MARCUS

No! This valley is mine!
With a final, intense tremor, the valley consumes Marcus,

Lena... you’re calling them. The

The amulet pulses in her hand, seeming to respond to her

Lena hesitates, realizing that by wielding the amulet, she
has awakened the spirits’ full rage.

Verity’s mercenaries run through the forest, desperately
searching for a way out. But the valley seems to trap them,
the trees shifting and the shadows growing darker around

One worker, JENKINS, is separated from the group. He hears
chanting in the distance and turns to see a line of ghostly
Ahwahneechee warriors blocking his path. He stumbles back,
trying to run, but a spectral warrior reaches out, and
Jenkins falls to his knees, clutching his head as he hears
the screams of the valley’s past victims echoing in his mind.
He collapses, his eyes wide and unseeing, consumed by the

Sir, we have to go. They’re dying

MARCUS
There’s no going back now. We’re

As they continue, a shadowy figure appears in their
path—Kali’s spirit, her eyes glowing fiercely. Harris lets
out a strangled scream and collapses to his knees, paralyzed

HARRIS
No... please... I don’t want to

overgrown moss and vines. Carved into it are Ahwahneechee
symbols and what appears to be an image of the amulet itself.

It’s a warning... Ethan mentioned
this in his journal. They hid the

He raises his gun, aiming at Lena, but the ground beneath him

Marcus struggles, but the vines tighten, dragging him into

he’s pulled under, his screams swallowed by the earth.
The fog lifts, and the valley falls silent once more.

Better left alone? This valley is a
treasure trove of ancient powers,
and you want to keep it buried?
Imagine what we could accomplish
with this kind of energy.
The ground trembles again, and spectral warriors emerge,
surrounding them both. The spirits glare at Dr. Morrison,
their faces showing anger and betrayal.
LENA
(to the spirits)
Please... I’ll take it from here.
Let me handle this.
But the spirits don’t retreat. They’re too enraged, seeing
yet another outsider trying to steal what belongs to the
valley.

The Reckoning of Dr. Morrison
EXT. HIDDEN GROVE – SHOWDOWN – NIGHT
The spirits advance on Dr. Morrison, who clutches the amulet
tightly, attempting to channel its power to ward them off.
But the power turns against him, forcing him to his knees as
a shadowy form appears above him—Kali’s spirit, watching with
judgmental eyes.*
KALI (SPIRIT)
You have violated the sacred
ground. Your greed has doomed you.
DR. MORRISON
No... I can control it!
He tries to raise the amulet, but it burns his hand, forcing
him to drop it. The spirits close in, their faces fierce and
unyielding.
Lena watches in horror as Dr. Morrison lets out a final
scream, the valley reclaiming him. The earth shifts, and his
body is swallowed by the ground, leaving only silence.
EXT. YOSEMITE VALLEY – DAWN
Lena stands alone in the grove, the amulet lying in the
grass. She realizes the valley’s protection must be kept
secret, guarded from those who would exploit it.
She buries the amulet at the base of an ancient tree,
covering it with stones and a prayer for peace.
EXT. YOSEMITE RIDGE – SUNSET
Lena and Sammy stand on a ridge, watching over the valley.
They share a look, understanding that as long as the valley
has power, it will always attract those who seek to exploit
it.
LENA
I think I understand now. The
valley doesn’t just need a
protector... it needs someone who
can listen.
SAMMY
Then I think you’re exactly who
it’s been waiting for.
They share a quiet moment of peace, knowing that the valley
is safe—for now.

Facing the Trials: Lena's Awakening
EXT. YOSEMITE VALLEY – NIGHT
The valley is serene, bathed in moonlight. But beneath the
calm surface, something stirs. A faint rumbling shakes the
earth, as if something deep within the valley is waking up.
INT. LENA’S CABIN – NIGHT
Lena wakes with a start, sensing that something is wrong. A
series of dreams and visions have plagued her
recently—cryptic images of symbols, ancient protectors, and a
dark presence that feels both familiar and foreboding.
Lena grabs Ethan’s journal, flipping to a page that has a
peculiar mark she hadn’t noticed before: three intertwined
circles with strange inscriptions within each one.
EXT. YOSEMITE VALLEY – TRAILHEAD – DAY
Lena and Sammy meet at the trailhead to discuss the symbol
she found. Sammy’s face goes pale when he sees the drawing.
SAMMY
I’ve seen this before. It’s the
Mark of the Three Trials.
LENA
Three Trials?
SAMMY
According to Ahwahneechee legends,
any guardian who wishes to truly
inherit the valley’s power must
pass three trials. Each trial
reveals something about the
valley’s deeper magic... and the
guardian’s own spirit.
Lena looks down at the symbol, feeling both curiosity and
apprehension.
LENA
Then I have to try. If I don’t
understand everything this valley
protects, how can I protect it?
EXT. ANCIENT FOREST CLEARING – NIGHT
Guided by Sammy’s knowledge, Lena reaches an ancient clearing
surrounded by towering sequoias. In the center is a circle of
stones, each marked with symbols. She steps inside, feeling
an overwhelming sense of presence.
Suddenly, shadows coalesce, and the spirit of Kali appears,
watching her with intense, unreadable eyes.
KALI (SPIRIT)
To guard the valley is to
understand its fears. Face your
own, or be consumed by them.
The forest around Lena shifts, morphing into images from her
past—the devastating forest fires, the memories of lost
friends, and finally, her fear of failing to protect the
valley.
A spectral version of herself appears, embodying all her
insecurities. The apparition advances toward her, its face
twisted with anger and despair.
SPECTRAL LENA
You’re just a visitor here. What
makes you think you’re worthy?
Lena stands her ground, her voice steady.
LENA
Because I’m not here for myself.
I’m here for the valley.
The apparition falters, then dissipates into a wisp of light.
Kali nods approvingly, and the stones glow faintly as a
symbol of courage etches itself onto Lena’s arm, a mark of
completion.

The Trial of Knowledge and Sacrifice
EXT. MOUNTAINSIDE – DAY
Sammy guides Lena to a hidden cave at the edge of the valley.
Inside, the walls are covered with intricate carvings—ancient
maps, symbols, and patterns that seem to shift and glow in
the dim light.
SAMMY
This is the Cave of Knowledge. The
second trial requires you to
decipher the valley’s secrets. Not
just to see, but to understand.
As Lena approaches the carvings, they pulse faintly. One map
catches her eye—it appears to be a map of Yosemite, but with
pathways she’s never seen. As she studies it, words written
in Ahwahneechee script appear.
AHWAHNEECHEE VOICE (V.O.)
Knowledge is power, but only if
shared. What was hidden must be
found.
The pathways shift, revealing glimpses of the valley’s hidden
sanctuaries, lost groves, and the locations of other
artifacts left by past guardians.
Lena reaches out, touching the carvings, and a flood of
knowledge fills her mind—ancient plants with healing
properties, long-forgotten rituals to protect the valley, and
hidden weaknesses that must be guarded from outsiders.
The map glows, transferring a mark of knowledge onto her
hand. The walls go dark again, as if satisfied with her
progress.
EXT. SACRED POOL – NIGHT
Lena reaches the final trial location: an ancient pool hidden
deep in the valley, surrounded by trees adorned with tribal
charms. The water is still, reflecting the moonlight.
Standing by the pool is the spirit of Ethan Walker.
ETHAN (SPIRIT)
You’ve come far. But to truly guard
the valley, you must be willing to
give it all—even your own freedom.
Lena looks at him, understanding the weight of his words.
LENA
What do you mean?
Ethan gestures to the pool, and in its reflection, Lena sees
the lives of past guardians. Some of them lived solitary
lives, devoting themselves to the valley, while others made
deep sacrifices, losing family, friends, and even their place
in the outside world.
ETHAN (SPIRIT)
To hold this power is to give up a
piece of yourself. Are you willing
to take this burden, knowing you
may be called upon to give
everything?
Lena’s face reflects determination and sadness as she nods.
LENA
I will. For the valley, I’m willing
to give all I have.
The pool shimmers, and a final symbol—the mark of
sacrifice—appears on Lena’s wrist. Ethan’s spirit fades,
leaving her alone by the water.

Guardians of Yosemite: The Rising Threat
EXT. YOSEMITE RIDGE – DAY
Lena now bears the three symbols on her arm: courage,
knowledge, and sacrifice. Sammy examines them, recognizing
the significance.
SAMMY
There are legends of sanctuaries
hidden throughout the valley—places
that only a true guardian can
unlock. The Three Trials are the
key.
Lena nods, feeling a renewed sense of purpose.
EXT. YOSEMITE – VARIOUS LOCATIONS – MONTAGE
Guided by the marks, Lena discovers hidden sanctuaries
throughout the valley:
1. The Grove of Healing – An ancient tree grove with plants
and herbs known only to the Ahwahneechee. Lena learns the
grove has medicinal plants capable of incredible healing.
2. The Echoing Caverns – A series of caverns where voices
from the past can be heard, preserving the wisdom and
warnings of the Ahwahneechee’s ancestors.
3. The Celestial Observatory – A hidden clearing with stone
markers aligned with the stars, used by past guardians to
track cosmic events and foresee potential threats to the
valley.
EXT. YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK – TRAILHEAD – DAY
Lena’s recent discoveries draw the attention of a secret
society of artifact hunters known as The Order of the
Compass, an ancient group that collects and exploits
supernatural relics from around the world.
The society’s leader, VICTOR HAWKE, arrives in Yosemite
disguised as a hiker. He’s cold, calculating, and determined
to claim the valley’s relics for his own purposes.
INT. LENA’S CABIN – NIGHT
Lena reads an entry in Ethan’s journal mentioning “The Order
of the Compass,” revealing that he encountered them in his
own time. The journal warns that this group has knowledge of
the valley’s relics and will stop at nothing to gain access.
LENA
(to herself)
They’ve been here before... and
they’re coming back.
She realizes that the Order’s return poses an even greater
danger, as they seek not just to exploit the valley, but to
control the guardians themselves.

Guardians of the Valley
EXT. YOSEMITE WOODS – NIGHT
Lena and Sammy set traps and warding symbols near the
valley’s sanctuaries, knowing that the Order will come for
them. They prepare to defend the valley, calling on
everything Lena has learned from the Three Trials.
EXT. SANCTUARY OF THE ECHOING CAVERNS – NIGHT
Victor and members of the Order attempt to infiltrate one of
the sanctuaries, but as they enter, ghostly whispers fill the
air, and the shadows of past guardians rise up to confront
them. The valley’s spirits, bolstered by Lena’s new
connection, defend their sacred ground.
EXT. YOSEMITE RIDGE – SUNRISE
After a night of fighting off the Order, Lena stands with
Sammy, both of them exhausted but victorious. They’ve managed
to protect the valley and its sanctuaries, but Lena knows
it’s only a temporary victory.
SAMMY
They’ll come back. People like them
always do.
LENA
Then we’ll be ready. The valley has

Lena stands in the grove of healing, her Three Trial symbols
faintly glowing as she senses a disturbance in the valley.
The morning air is thick with tension. She knows the Order is
still searching, growing bolder each day.
As she examines her surroundings, Lena notices an ancient
stone tablet buried among the roots of a massive sequoia
tree. She brushes away the moss to reveal carvings of
powerful relics: The Staff of the Ancestors, The Mirror of
Lost Paths, and The Shield of Echoes.
LENA
(whispering)
These... these are the valley’s
last defenses.
INT. LENA’S CABIN – NIGHT
Lena and Sammy pour over the stone tablet in her cabin. Sammy
translates some of the inscriptions, his voice filled with
awe and apprehension.
SAMMY
These relics were said to be
created by the first guardians.
Each one holds a piece of the
valley’s spirit, meant to protect
against the greatest threats.
LENA
(breathless)
But the inscriptions say that using
these relics comes at a cost.
Sammy nods, his expression serious.
SAMMY
The valley takes something from its
guardians in return. Each relic
requires a piece of the guardian’s
soul... a permanent sacrifice.

Our guardian friend has led us

Victor smirks, unimpressed.
VICTOR HAWKE
Fear is for the weak. The valley’s

He raises a small relic—a compass infused with ancient magic,
glowing faintly as it guides him toward the deeper parts of
the caverns.

The Guardian's Stand
EXT. HIDDEN GROVE OF HEALING – NIGHT
Following the tablet’s clues, Lena discovers a secluded spot
in the grove where the Staff of the Ancestors lies half-
buried in the ground, surrounded by ancient stones and
protective symbols. The staff pulses faintly with energy,
like a heartbeat.
Lena reaches out hesitantly, feeling the staff’s power
resonate within her. The moment she touches it, visions flood
her mind—past guardians wielding the staff against those who
threatened the valley, each one sacrificing something in
return.
A deep voice, ancient and wise, fills her mind.
ANCIENT VOICE (V.O.)
To wield the staff is to bind
yourself to the valley’s spirit. A
piece of you will remain here,
forever.
Lena, breathing heavily, takes the staff, feeling a surge of
strength but also a heavy weight in her heart. She
understands that each use will drain a part of her, binding
her more deeply to the valley.
EXT. YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK – THE ECHOING CAVERNS – NIGHT
Victor and his team press further into the caverns,
emboldened by their compass. As they approach a hidden
chamber containing the Mirror of Lost Paths, Lena intercepts
them, wielding the Staff of the Ancestors. Her presence is
commanding, her eyes fierce.
VICTOR HAWKE

Well, look who decided to join us.

VICTOR HAWKE (CONT'D)
Did you really think you could keep
this all to yourself?
LENA
You have no idea what you’re

don’t belong to anyone. They’re
meant to protect, not to be used.
Victor steps forward, undeterred.
VICTOR HAWKE
Oh, I know exactly what they are.
And I intend to harness their
power... even if it costs you
everything.
Victor gestures to his team, and a standoff ensues as Lena
raises the Staff of the Ancestors. She strikes the ground
with the staff, and an invisible force ripples outward,
knocking back Victor’s lieutenants. But Lena feels the drain
immediately, a faint glow leaving her and transferring into
the ground.
One of Victor’s lieutenants recovers and lunges at Lena, but
the staff emits a pulse of energy, temporarily binding him in
place. However, Lena’s energy visibly weakens with each use,
as though the valley itself is siphoning her strength.

Reflections of Ambition
INT. THE ECHOING CAVERNS – SECRET CHAMBER – NIGHT
Victor slips away during the chaos, making his way into the
hidden chamber. In the center of the room is the Mirror of
Lost Paths, a large, ancient mirror embedded into the rock.
The glass is smoky and shifting, reflecting images of both
the past and future.
Victor stares into it, mesmerized as he sees glimpses of past
guardians, powerful spirits, and visions of himself wielding
ultimate control over the valley. A smile spreads across his
face.
VICTOR HAWKE
(in awe)
It’s perfect... the valley will
finally bow to me.
He reaches out to touch the mirror, but the glass ripples,
distorting and morphing into a series of horrific
images—visions of destruction, the valley consumed by fire
and darkness, and Victor himself, trapped within the mirror,
pleading for freedom.
Suddenly, he realizes the mirror isn’t just a relic—it’s a
trap for those who seek to exploit the valley’s power.
INT. THE ECHOING CAVERNS – SECRET CHAMBER – NIGHT
Lena arrives just in time to see Victor pull his hand away
from the mirror, his face pale and shaken.
LENA
It showed you the truth, didn’t it?
This valley doesn’t belong to you.
And if you continue, it will
destroy you.
Victor, defiant, clenches his fists and steadies himself.
VICTOR HAWKE
You’re wrong. The valley’s power
belongs to whoever is strong enough
to claim it.
He lunges for the mirror again, but Lena raises the staff,
and with a final burst of energy, she channels the spirits of
past guardians through the staff, creating a protective
barrier around the mirror.
Victor is thrown back, but the effort takes a toll on Lena.
She stumbles, the staff slipping from her hand as her vision
blurs.
The ground trembles, and the Mirror of Lost Paths absorbs the
barrier’s energy, sealing itself shut and leaving Victor and
his remaining lieutenants trapped within the cavern.
EXT. YOSEMITE VALLEY – SUNRISE
Lena emerges from the caverns, visibly weakened but alive.
Sammy waits outside, watching as she struggles to stand.
SAMMY
Lena... you did it. The valley is

For now. But each time I use the
relics, I feel the valley taking a

heard many times but listens to with reverence.
NIMA

The valley is our mother, our
protector. It has given us life for

Do you think we’ll be guardians,

Kali smiles, brushing a hand over Ayana’s hair.

If that’s what the valley chooses

The Ahwahneechee people are performing a seasonal ritual to
honor the valley’s spirit, thanking it for the harvest, the
water, and the land. Tribal drums beat steadily as dancers
move rhythmically around a fire.
The elder, CHIEF TOPO, stands in the center, dressed in
ceremonial attire adorned with feathers and animal bones,
representing the valley’s animals. He holds an ornate staff,
the precursor to the Staff of the Ancestors, believed to
contain the valley’s protective spirit.
CHIEF TOPO
(calling out to the
valley)
Great Spirit of Ahwahnee, we offer
our thanks for your gifts. May we
walk with you in balance, may we
guard you as you guard us.
Kali, watching from the edge of the circle, closes her eyes,
feeling a connection to the ritual and to her people. She

protector.

animal hide. She sits beside Kali, placing the bundle in her
hands.
NIMA
This belonged to your mother and
her mother before her.
Kali unwraps it carefully, revealing a small amulet carved
from stone, a miniature version of the one Lena found. She

gentle but firm.
NIMA
None of us are ever truly ready.
But the valley chose you, Kali,

We do not serve ourselves; we serve
something greater.

part of a lineage, bound to the valley by blood and spirit.

As she meditates, a vision appears: the valley in flames,
shadowy figures of outsiders invading, and her people
fleeing. But standing amidst the chaos is Kali, holding her
ground as the valley’s last line of defense.

weight of responsibility.
As part of the ceremony, Nima steps forward, holding a small
pouch of sacred herbs. She sprinkles them over Kali,
completing the ritual of blessing.
DEEPER INSIGHT INTO AWAHNEECHEE BELIEFS AND LEGENDS
In the days that follow, Kali learns the wisdom of the valley
from her grandmother and Chief Topo, each lesson connecting
her more deeply to the Ahwahneechee’s traditions.
1. The Spirit of the Waters – The Ahwahneechee believe that
the waterfalls and rivers carry the valley’s memory,
remembering all that has transpired on its lands. They teach
Kali that the water can reveal glimpses of the future, but
only to those who are truly connected to the valley.
2. The Guardians of the Stones – Legends tell of stones
scattered throughout the valley that act as markers,
preserving the spiritual energy of past guardians. It is said
that if a guardian falters, they can draw strength from these
stones.
3. The Sky and the Stars – The Ahwahneechee study the stars,
believing that their alignment foretells significant events.
Kali is taught how to read the night sky to anticipate
threats and understand the valley’s will.
4. The Spirits of Animals – The people believe that the
animals of the valley are messengers, carrying warnings and
omens. Kali forms a bond with a hawk that often visits her,
taking it as a sign of her path forward.

Outsiders—settlers, accompanied by members of the Mariposa
Battalion—have arrived, laying claim to lands they believe
are unoccupied. Tensions escalate as the outsiders set up
camp near the Ahwahneechee village.
Kali, along with her fellow warriors, approaches the
outsiders, trying to communicate that this land is sacred.
But her words are met with hostility and dismissiveness.
SETTLER LEADER
This land doesn’t belong to you.
California’s expanding, and you’d
better learn to accept it.
Kali’s expression hardens as she realizes that these people
don’t respect the valley. She knows they pose a danger to her
people and to the land.
KALI
Then I will protect this valley,

She returns to her village, rallying the warriors and elders
to prepare defenses. Together, they set up hidden traps and
lay sacred markings along the edges of their territory,
praying that it will be enough.

Kali returns to the sacred altar one last time, holding her
amulet tightly. She kneels before the altar, her voice soft

Great Spirit of Ahwahnee, I vow to
protect this valley as long as I
have breath. Even if I am lost, I
will remain with you. Let my spirit
be bound to these lands.
The amulet glows brightly, and a faint, ghostly image of Kali
is projected around the valley, foreshadowing her role as a
spectral guardian. She feels a surge of power, a sense of
unity with the valley that assures her she is never alone.
This vow completes her transformation from a woman of the

This valley is protected by secrets
older than civilization. But we now

through. Follow the symbols—ignore
the superstitions.
The Order begins to march into the valley, ready to dismantle

Ritual of Protection
INT. LENA’S CABIN – NIGHT
Lena and Sammy pore over Ethan’s journal, seeking clues to
strengthen the valley’s defenses.
SAMMY
These symbols... they’re not just
protections. According to this,
they’re also beacons. When
activated, they can call upon the
spirits to guard the land.
LENA
(understanding)
So if we keep the symbols intact,
the spirits will stand with us.
SAMMY
But we need something
more—something to make sure the
Order can’t break through again.
Lena nods, recalling a passage from the journal about a
ceremony that binds the land and spirit as one.
EXT. SACRED GROVE – MIDNIGHT
Lena and Sammy gather in the sacred grove with offerings of
herbs, feathers, and stones, symbols that connect them to the
spirits of the Ahwahneechee ancestors. They set up a small
fire, and Sammy begins chanting a traditional Ahwahneechee
prayer, his voice low and respectful.
LENA
(calling out)
Spirits of Ahwahnee, we honor your
memory. Guide us as we defend what
you held sacred.
The symbols they’ve drawn on stones and trees around them
begin to glow faintly, responding to their ceremony. A mist
rises, and Lena senses a powerful presence joining them.
The spirit of Kali appears, standing by the fire, her face
proud yet solemn.
KALI (SPIRIT)
The valley’s heart beats within
you, Lena. But there are those who
will stop at nothing to tear it
out.
She gestures to a spot deeper in the forest.
KALI (SPIRIT) (CONT'D)
The Mirror of Lost Paths revealed a
hidden gateway long ago, a gateway
that can protect or destroy. Only
one who is truly bound to the
valley can unlock it.
Lena’s eyes widen as she realizes that this gateway is the
valley’s last line of defense. It could either protect them
or, if it falls into the wrong hands, expose them to
unimaginable danger.
LENA
(steeling herself)
Then I’ll unlock it, but only to
protect. I won’t let the Order take
it.

The Awakening of the Ancestors
EXT. YOSEMITE – SECRET PASSAGEWAY – DAWN
Guided by Kali’s spirit, Lena and Sammy find a hidden
passageway among the cliffs, surrounded by ancient rock
carvings that depict the valley’s history. They follow the
carvings, each one revealing a piece of the Ahwahneechee’s
legacy.
At the end of the passageway, they reach the Gateway of
Shadows, an archway made of two immense stones, inscribed
with symbols and guarded by faint, ghostly forms of past
guardians.
SAMMY
(whispering)
This is it... the final protection.
Lena approaches the gateway, feeling its powerful energy. She
reaches out, and the symbols on the stones begin to glow,
revealing an entrance to a sanctuary deep within the valley.
THE SANCTUARY OF ANCESTORS
INT. ANCIENT SANCTUARY – DAY
Lena and Sammy step into a vast underground sanctuary, filled
with carvings, artifacts, and relics preserved by the valley.
The sanctuary is a hidden archive of the Ahwahneechee’s
history and the legacies of past guardians.
They find three relics that the Ahwahneechee left for future
guardians:
1. The Stone of Vision – A crystal that reveals glimpses of
potential futures, allowing the guardian to anticipate and
prevent threats.
2. The Spirit Mask – A ceremonial mask that can temporarily
unite the guardian with the spirits of the valley, granting
heightened strength and resilience.
3. The Bow of Shadows – An enchanted bow, said to be bound to
the spirits, that can strike down those who threaten the
valley from afar.
Lena picks up the Stone of Vision, and immediately, visions
flood her mind. She sees the Order of the Compass reaching
the sanctuary, overpowering the valley’s spirits, and taking
control of its ancient relics. The vision is a warning.
LENA
(whispering)
We don’t have much time. They’re
coming.
Lena places the relics in a protective satchel, understanding
that they may be her last line of defense.

EXT. HIDDEN SANCTUARY ENTRANCE – DAY
Victor and his team arrive at the sanctuary entrance, the
ancient carvings glowing faintly as they prepare to enter.
Lena and Sammy stand in the shadows, watching, knowing they
have only moments to act.
Victor’s compass glows, guiding him forward. He’s visibly
exhilarated, hungry for the power he believes lies within.
VICTOR HAWKE
(to his team)
Beyond this gateway lies power
unimaginable. We take it, and we
leave no trace.
The Order begins their approach, and Lena steps forward,
drawing the Bow of Shadows and taking aim. The bow hums with
energy as she pulls back, infused with the spirits’ power.
EXT. HIDDEN SANCTUARY – ENTRANCE – CONTINUOUS
Lena releases an arrow, which flies through the air like a
shadow, hitting one of the Order members and knocking him
back. Victor’s team scrambles, momentarily disoriented,
giving Lena and Sammy a chance to close in.
SAMMY
(to Lena)
Use the Spirit Mask—it will let you
draw on the valley’s strength.
Lena nods, putting on the Spirit Mask. Instantly, she feels
an immense surge of energy as the spirits of past guardians
join her, lending her their strength.
She steps into the open, confronting Victor with a fierce,
otherworldly presence. Her eyes glow faintly as the spirits
work through her, giving her an aura of undeniable power.
VICTOR HAWKE
(in disbelief)
You think you can stop me with a
mask and some old superstitions?
LENA
This valley is alive, Victor. And
it will never belong to you.
Victor and his remaining team charge, but Lena, channeling
the spirits, deflects their attacks with inhuman speed and
strength. She moves like a shadow, striking down each member
of the Order with swift precision.
Finally, Lena faces Victor alone. He pulls out the compass,
trying to counter her with a pulse of his own dark energy,
but the valley’s power overwhelms it. Lena draws her last
arrow, aiming the Bow of Shadows directly at him.
VICTOR HAWKE
(furious, desperate)
If I can’t have this valley, then
no one will!
He lunges toward the sanctuary, intent on destroying it, but
Lena releases the arrow, which strikes him directly in the
chest. The spirit-infused energy of the bow surrounds him,
and Victor lets out a final scream as he’s consumed by the
valley’s power.
His body is pulled into the ground, as though the valley
itself is reclaiming him.
EXT. YOSEMITE VALLEY – SUNSET
With the Order defeated, Lena stands with Sammy at the edge
of the valley, watching as the sun sets. The relics are
returned to the sanctuary, hidden and protected once more.
The spirit of Kali appears beside her, a look of gratitude in
her eyes.
KALI (SPIRIT)
You have honored our legacy, Lena.
You are a true guardian.
The spirits of the valley gather around her one last time,
acknowledging her as part of their lineage. Kali fades,
leaving Lena with a sense of peace.
SAMMY
You did it, Lena. The valley is
safe.
LENA

Guardians of the Land
EXT. YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK – MIDDAY (LENA, AGE 10)
The young Lena, about 10 years old, walks along a trail in
Yosemite, holding hands with her father, JAMES WALKER. James
is a gentle, rugged man in his 40s with a deep appreciation
for nature.
He has a ranger’s keen eye and a conservationist’s heart. He
gestures to the trees, pointing out different plants,
animals, and rock formations to Lena as they walk.
JAMES
(softly)
See those trees, Lena? They’ve been
here longer than both of us, longer
than anyone in our family. They
have stories, just like people.
Lena looks up at the towering sequoias, her small face filled
with wonder. She steps closer to one of the trees, placing
her hand against its rough bark.
YOUNG LENA
(slightly confused)
Stories? How can trees have
stories, Dad?
JAMES
They remember, in their own way.
They remember all the people who
have come through this valley, the
storms, the fires, the winters.
They’ve seen it all.
He kneels down beside her, smiling gently.
JAMES (CONT'D)
One day, you’ll have your own
stories to tell. And maybe, if you
listen closely, the valley will
share some of its stories with you.
Lena smiles back at him, clearly fascinated, as she traces
her fingers along the bark. This moment plants the first
seeds of her connection to the valley.
EXT. YOSEMITE – RIVERBANK – DUSK
Later that day, James and Lena sit by the riverbank, watching
the sunset. Lena has a small journal in which she’s been
sketching the mountains and trees.
YOUNG LENA
Dad, do you think I could be a
ranger like you when I grow up?
James chuckles, putting an arm around her.
JAMES
You could be anything you want,
Lena. But being a ranger... it’s
more than just a job. You have to
love the land like it’s family.
Protect it, care for it, even when
no one else does.
He picks up a smooth stone from the riverbank, tossing it
into the water, creating a series of ripples.
JAMES (CONT'D)
Just like that stone makes ripples,
the choices we make echo across the
land. It’s up to us to make sure
they’re the right ones.
Lena watches the ripples fade, her young mind absorbing her
father’s words.
YOUNG LENA
(quietly)
I think I’d like that. Protecting
the valley.
James looks at her with pride, sensing her earnestness.
INT. LENA’S CHILDHOOD HOME – NIGHT
Back at home, Lena sits at the kitchen table with her
sketchbook. Her mother, SARAH WALKER, sets down a mug of
cocoa beside her, smiling warmly.
SARAH
Your father told me you were quite
the explorer today.
Lena nods, showing her mother her sketches of the valley.
YOUNG LENA
He told me the trees have stories.
Do you think that’s true, Mom?
SARAH
(smiling)
Absolutely. Nature is full of
stories, honey. You just have to
listen.
Sarah glances out the window at the starry sky.
SARAH (CONT'D)
Your father and I always believed
that we’re not just visitors here.
We’re part of this place, like the
trees, the rivers... even the
stars.
Sarah points to a constellation in the night sky, visible
through the window.
SARAH (CONT'D)
And when you care about something,
Lena, it becomes a part of you.
That’s why we do what we do—to
protect what we love.
Lena nods thoughtfully, the idea of guardianship taking root
in her heart.

Guardianship of the Valley
EXT. YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK – FIRE CAMP – NIGHT
One year later, Lena, now 11, sits in a makeshift camp with
her family, watching as a fire blazes on the mountainside.
Her father, along with other rangers, is helping to contain a
wildfire that’s threatening the valley. Lena’s face is a
mixture of fear and awe.
YOUNG LENA
(whispering to herself)
Is the valley going to be okay?
Her father returns to the camp, his face streaked with ash
and exhaustion. He kneels beside Lena, wrapping her in a hug.
JAMES
The valley is strong, Lena. Fires
come and go, but the land knows how
to heal. It just needs time and a
little care.
Lena stares into the flames, understanding for the first time
that protecting the valley isn’t always easy—it requires
sacrifice and resilience.
YOUNG LENA
(slightly trembling)
I want to help protect it, too. I
don’t want the valley to get hurt.
JAMES
(gently)
One day, you might have to.

JAMES (CONT'D)
And when that time comes, I know
you’ll be ready.
He holds her close, and the two of them watch the flames from
a distance, connected by their shared dedication to the land.
INT. LENA’S BEDROOM – NIGHT
That same night, Lena lies in bed, unable to sleep. She gets
up and goes to the window, looking out at the moonlit valley.
She whispers to herself, a soft promise.
YOUNG LENA
(to the valley)
I’ll protect you. Just like Dad
does.
She falls asleep with a peaceful smile, feeling a deep
connection to the land she’s come to love.
FADE BACK TO PRESENT DAY: YOSEMITE VALLEY
EXT. YOSEMITE RIDGE – SUNSET
Back in the present, Lena stands on a ridge overlooking the
valley, her father’s words echoing in her mind.
JAMES (V.O.)
Just like that stone makes ripples,
the choices we make echo across the
land.
Lena, feeling the weight of her guardianship, looks out over
the valley with a renewed sense of purpose. The childhood
memories have reminded her that her duty is more than just a
responsibility—it’s a lifelong bond.
LENA
(whispering)
I’ll keep my promise, Dad. I’ll
protect this valley.
She places her hand over her heart, her commitment stronger
than ever.
DEEPENING HER CONNECTION TO THE AWAHNEECHEE LEGACY
Lena recalls the teachings her father shared, paralleling the
stories of the Ahwahneechee. She realizes that her connection
to the land wasn’t just about her family’s work as rangers;
it was a spiritual bond similar to that of the Ahwahneechee
guardians before her.
EXT. SACRED GROVE – NIGHT
Lena returns to the sacred grove, kneeling in front of the
altar where she had seen visions of Kali. She places her
father’ s old ranger badge on the altar as a symbol of her
personal commitment.
LENA
(to the spirits)
My family taught me to love this
land, to listen to it and protect
it. I know now that I’m part of
something much bigger than I ever
imagined.
She closes her eyes, feeling the presence of her ancestors
and the spirits of the Ahwahneechee. The ground around the
altar begins to glow faintly, acknowledging her dedication.
A VISION OF HER FATHER
As she meditates, Lena has a vision of her father standing
beside her, his face proud but peaceful.
JAMES (SPIRIT)
You found your place, Lena. I
always knew you would.
Lena smiles, tears in her eyes.
LENA
Thank you, Dad. For everything.
The vision fades, but Lena feels a renewed strength and
clarity. She knows that both her family and the Ahwahneechee
traditions have guided her to this role. She stands up, ready
to continue her work as guardian.

Defending the Sacred: A Clash of Beliefs
INT. YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK – RANGER HEADQUARTERS – DAY
Lena stands in the office of the National Park Service,
facing AGENT MARK BENNETT, a government agent from the
Department of the Interior, and AGENT LUCY RAMIREZ, an
investigator with an interest in cultural preservation but
bound by her duties. Bennett is pragmatic and skeptical,
while Ramirez is more open-minded but hesitant.
They sit across from Lena, reviewing recent reports of her
activities, her "unauthorized" rituals, and the recent
disturbances in the park caused by the Order of the Compass.
AGENT BENNETT
Ms. Walker, we’re here because your
actions in this valley have raised
some concerns. Reports of “unusual
activity” and “altercations”
involving trespassers... it’s
affecting park operations and
public safety.
LENA
(slightly defensive)
I’m protecting the valley. There’s
a group out there, the Order of the
Compass, trying to exploit the
valley’s sacred sites. They’ve
already destroyed some of the
markings left by the Ahwahneechee.
AGENT RAMIREZ
(interjecting)
We’ve heard your claims about the
Order, but we need solid evidence,
Ms. Walker. We can’t take action
based on rumors.
Lena takes a deep breath, realizing she must find a way to
convince them.
EXT. YOSEMITE – SACRED SITES TOUR – DAY
Determined to show them the spiritual depth of the valley,
Lena takes Agents Bennett and Ramirez on a tour through the
valley’s sacred sites, starting with the ancient markings and
symbols she’s preserved. She explains each site’s cultural
significance, blending her personal stories with Ahwahneechee
traditions.
LENA
These markings aren’t just
decoration.
(MORE)
LENA (CONT'D)
They’re part of the valley’s
history, left by the Ahwahneechee
to protect this land. Every symbol
has a purpose.
She traces a protective symbol on a stone, its edges worn yet
still potent.
LENA (CONT'D)
This one, for example, wards off
outsiders with ill intent. The
valley remembers, even if we don’t.
Agent Ramirez studies the symbols, visibly moved. Bennett,
however, remains skeptical.
AGENT BENNETT
I’m sorry, Ms. Walker, but these
are just old carvings. They don’t
constitute a reason to keep people
out of the park.
LENA
(slightly frustrated)
They’re not “just old carvings.”
These are connections to the
valley’s spirit—connections that
people like the Order of the
Compass want to exploit.

Lena brings the agents to the sacred grove. She kneels at the
altar, lighting a small bundle of sage and speaking to the
spirits as she’s done many times before. The agents watch,
uneasy but curious.
LENA
Great Spirit of Ahwahnee, show them
what you have shown me.
The air grows colder, and a faint mist rises, swirling around
the grove. A subtle, ethereal glow illuminates the
surrounding trees, and shadows of Ahwahneechee warriors begin
to appear in the mist, watching over the grove.
Ramirez’s eyes widen, captivated by the presence, while
Bennett struggles to maintain his skepticism.
AGENT RAMIREZ
(whispering)
Are these... the guardians?
LENA
Yes. These are the spirits of those
who protected this valley long
before we were here. They’re bound
to this land, and they’ve entrusted
me to continue their work.
The spirit of Kali steps forward, her face calm but powerful,
acknowledging Lena’s guardianship. Agent Ramirez stares,
visibly moved, while Bennett looks unsettled but intrigued.
AGENT BENNETT
(hesitant)
I... I don’t understand. How is
this possible?
LENA
This valley has a life of its own.
It doesn’t belong to us, it belongs
to itself. The Ahwahneechee were
the first to understand this. They
passed down their guardianship, not
just as a duty but as a sacred
bond.
The spirits slowly fade back into the mist, leaving the
agents in silence.

AGENT RAMIREZ

I didn’t realize... how much was at
stake here. This isn’t just about
protecting land. It’s about
preserving something sacred.
Agent Bennett nods, visibly moved but struggling with his
sense of duty.
AGENT BENNETT
(to Lena)
If what you’re saying is true, then
this valley is under constant
threat. And if we don’t protect it,
there might be more damage than we
understand.
Lena nods, sensing that they’re beginning to understand.
LENA
There’s a reason the spirits are
still here. They’re protecting
something that can’t be replaced. I
can’t do this alone.
The agents exchange a look, and Bennett sighs, conceding.
AGENT BENNETT
(softening)
We’ll help. But we need to figure
out a way to handle this that
aligns with... well, with
government policy.
AGENT RAMIREZ
If we can show the Department of
the Interior that this valley has
cultural and spiritual
significance, they’ll be more
likely to back efforts to protect
it.
INT. YOSEMITE RANGER HEADQUARTERS – NIGHT
Lena, Sammy, Bennett, and Ramirez gather around a map of
Yosemite, strategizing. Bennett has arranged for additional
rangers and resources, while Ramirez prepares a cultural
report to support their case.
AGENT RAMIREZ
We can designate specific sites as
culturally protected zones. This
would restrict access to anyone
without clearance, making it harder
for groups like the Order to
operate here.
LENA
That’s a good start. But the Order
won’t stop. They know how to work
around rules—they need to see that
this valley isn’t just another
place to exploit.
Bennett nods, acknowledging the complexity of the situation.
AGENT BENNETT
I’ll authorize a team to monitor
for any suspicious activity in the
valley.

as night falls. Suddenly, they see movement in the
distance—the Order of the Compass, led by Victor Hawke,
emerging from the shadows.
VICTOR HAWKE
(smirking)
Looks like we have an audience. But
you’re not stopping us this time.
He pulls out a relic compass that glows faintly, guiding him
toward the hidden sanctuaries.

You’re not welcome here, Victor.
This valley has protected itself
for generations, and it won’t let
you destroy it.
AGENT BENNETT
You’re trespassing on federal land,
Mr. Hawke. This is your last
warning.
Victor sneers, motioning for his team to fan out. As they
move forward, Lena raises her hand, invoking the Ahwahneechee
spirits.
The protective symbols around the grove begin to glow, and
the spirits of past guardians, led by Kali, emerge once more.
Victor’s team members falter, their faces filled with fear as
they witness the power of the valley.
KALI (SPIRIT)
(to Victor)
This land does not belong to you.
It is protected by those who loved
it and those who sacrificed for it.
Victor, growing desperate, tries to push through, but the
spirits form a barrier, preventing him from reaching the
sanctuaries.
Agent Ramirez steps forward, her voice filled with reverence.
AGENT RAMIREZ
We are witnesses to this place’s
sacred power. Leave, or face the
consequences of those who
disrespected this land.
VICTOR’S DOWNFALL
Victor, now visibly shaken,
attempts to break through the
spirit barrier, but Lena steps
forward, holding up the Staff of
the Ancestors.
LENA
This is your last chance, Victor.
The valley has spoken. Leave, and
never come back.
Victor hesitates, but his arrogance gets the best of him. He
tries to lunge forward, but the spirits close in, surrounding
him and his team. The ground beneath them begins to tremble,
and they find themselves trapped as the spirits reclaim the
relics they attempted to steal.
One by one, Victor’s team members disappear into the mist,

Awakening the Spirit of Yosemite
INT. YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK – RANGER HEADQUARTERS – DAY
The Department of the Interior has sent a team of agents to
assess Lena’s recent activities, concerned about the reports
of “unusual incidents” and Lena’s confrontations with
trespassers. Agents Mark Bennett and Lucy Ramirez lead the
team, intending to investigate Lena’s actions and potentially
rein in what they see as unorthodox behavior.
Bennett is tough and duty-bound, a realist who initially
believes Lena may be overstating the valley’s importance.
Ramirez, however, has a background in anthropology and
cultural studies and feels an instinctive pull toward Lena’s
preservation efforts, though she’s restrained by government
protocols.
AGENT BENNETT
(to Lena, reviewing a
file)
This valley is public land, Ms.
Walker. Your personal beliefs can’t
interfere with public access.
AGENT RAMIREZ
If there’s a group disturbing
protected land, we need proof.
Claims about “spiritual
disturbances” won’t hold up in
court.
Lena takes a deep breath, knowing she needs to show them the
valley’s importance from her perspective if she’s to gain
their support.
LENA
There’s more here than you realize.
I’d like to show you what we’re
really protecting.
EXT. SACRED GROVE – EVENING
Lena leads the agents to the sacred grove where Ahwahneechee
symbols and carvings adorn the trees and rocks. She carefully
explains the significance of each symbol, how each was carved
by past guardians as protective wards to shield the valley.
As she describes the history, the grove begins to emit a
faint glow, and a mist rises, enveloping them.
Agent Ramirez stares in awe as she sees faint outlines of
Ahwahneechee spirits among the trees, watching over them.
AGENT RAMIREZ
(amazed, whispering)
I can feel something here… it’s as
if the valley is alive.
Agent Bennett shifts uncomfortably, struggling with disbelief
but clearly impacted.
AGENT BENNETT
I don’t understand how this is
possible. These... these spirits.
Are they really guardians?
LENA
Yes. They’re here to protect the
valley. The Ahwahneechee were the
original stewards of this land.

LENA (CONT'D)
They left these symbols and rituals
to keep it safe from those who

Ramirez, visibly moved, nods.

We can’t ignore this. If this

Ahwahneechee heritage, it deserves
full protection.
Bennett remains uncertain but concedes to explore the idea
further.
INT. YOSEMITE RANGER HEADQUARTERS – NIGHT
Lena meets with the agents to outline a formal plan for
protecting the valley’s sacred sites, hoping to convince the
Department of the Interior to designate these areas as
culturally protected zones.
LENA
This isn’t just land. It’s a
spiritual legacy that goes back
generations. If the government can
designate these areas as sacred, it
will be harder for groups like the
Order of the Compass to violate
them.
Ramirez listens intently, understanding the cultural
significance, while Bennett taps a pen thoughtfully against
the table.
AGENT BENNETT
You’re asking us to recognize a
spiritual connection and a history
that the law doesn’t easily cover.
But maybe… maybe there’s a way.
Ramirez, realizing the importance of Lena’s mission, nods
resolutely.
AGENT RAMIREZ
We can propose a case for cultural
preservation. If we frame it as a
heritage site, this might get the
Department’s support.
LENA
(slightly relieved)
Thank you. With official support,
we can secure these areas and
defend the valley against
exploitation.
The agents agree to support Lena’s mission, setting in motion
the process for cultural protection of the valley.

We’ll do whatever it takes to keep
them out of these protected areas.
LENA
Thank you. With the spirits’ help,
we can make sure they can’t harm
the valley.
Victor and his team emerge from the shadows, ready for a
confrontation. He spots Lena and her allies, smirking.
VICTOR HAWKE
(sneering)
Looks like you’ve found new
friends, Lena. But they won’t be
enough.
Victor raises a relic compass that glows ominously,
attempting to disrupt the valley’s spiritual energy.
SCENE 6: THE VALLEY’S SPIRITS DEFEND AGAINST THE ORDER
As Victor’s team tries to break through, Lena invokes the
Ahwahneechee spirits using an ancient chant. The ground
begins to tremble, and shadows of past guardians rise up to
stand beside Lena and her allies.
Ramirez watches in awe as the spirits form a protective
barrier, their figures glowing faintly in the mist. Bennett,
initially skeptical, looks on in amazement as the spirits
push Victor’s team back.
AGENT BENNETT
(whispering to himself)
I didn’t think… I didn’t think this
was possible.
AGENT RAMIREZ
This is why we’re here—to protect
something that can’t be replaced.
Victor’s team, now facing the spirits directly, falters. Some
try to push forward but are stopped by a wave of spiritual
energy from the guardians.
SCENE 7: VICTOR’S FINAL ATTEMPT
EXT. SACRED GROVE – CONTINUOUS
Desperate, Victor steps forward with the compass, muttering
an incantation that causes the ground beneath him to crack.
The spirits weaken momentarily, and Lena senses that Victor
is trying to use the valley’s own energy against it.
Lena turns to Bennett and Ramirez, determination in her eyes.
LENA
We have to cut him off from the
compass. It’s drawing power from
the valley.
Ramirez moves quickly, taking aim at Victor’s hand. She
fires, knocking the compass from his grasp. Victor stumbles,
losing control of the incantation.
With the compass broken, the valley’s energy surges back,
restoring the spirits’ strength. They close in around Victor,
who realizes he’s lost.
