A priest walks through a long corridor leading to the depths of the temple. After ascending several steps, he reaches a heavy metal door with a numeric keypad for entry. His hand reaches out, pressing a series of buttons. In the end, a piercing screech is heard, and the door opens with a sharp click as a hand rests upon it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><strong><u>INT.

It features a gleaming white floor and pale neon lights. <\/span><span style=\"color:#374151\">A small, white cloud of nitrogen emerges from the bottom of one of the cabinets. There are sturdy cabinets made of thick metal and glass, beneath which you can find the reproductions. You move closer to the glass slowly, and underneath, you see frozen bodies. They are all replicas of the old Professor Shain and his duplicates, some of them appearing younger.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><strong><u>INT.

A large brown table with a polished glass panel is present. Lara, dressed in an orange jumpsuit, assists Professor Shain in rising from his armchair and guides him toward the drawing table. Leaning over him, she whispers something into his ear, to which he nods. He appears very old and completely bald.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><strong><u>INT.

A festive atmosphere permeates the space. At the middle of the expansive stage, a small platform for speeches is set up, complete with a speaker and lighting. In the middle of the grand stage, a small podium with a speaker and lights is placed. Standing on the podium is the young priest, his face filled with enthusiasm.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><strong><u>THE YOUNG PRIEST<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; margin-left:48px; margin-right:48px\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">My dear friend and companion on this journey.

Lara emerges from the side of the stage, leading the original Professor Shain, dressed in a black jumpsuit. His once blond hair has turned mostly white. He moves slowly, each step visibly painful, showing his advanced age. As he ascends the stage, on his way towards the speaker&#39;s podium, a hush falls upon the crowd, and<\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"color:#374151\">thousands of believers fall to the ground, their bows filled with unwavering faith. Professor Shain rests his hands on the speech podium, gazing absently at the audience before him. He is&nbsp; partly blind, but feels the immense energies emanating from the eager crowd awaiting his words. His old, twisted fingers play with the corners of the polished wooden lectern on the stage. Lara stands beside him, slightly behind, immobile yet filled with happiness. A glass of water is placed there. With trembling hands. the elderly professor takes the glass in his hands and drinks from it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; INT.
