The Five Kings, the Fight for Teava Vangla

The movie begins with a brief recap of the creation story, detailing the Vergeis people and their struggles. This covers the introduction to the people themselves, the concept of imagination projections, the creation of the Auctor Vitae, the stealing of the Vitae and the culmination of the Final Conflict of the Vergeis, Lorian's return to the battlefield, Quinn's decision to sacrifice herself to imprison the comatose Vestis, the short explanation of the Heart of Quinn and its purpose, and Lorian's introduction as the newly ordained "God of Death". After Lorian finishes narrating the creation story recap, we move to a young James and traverse his childhood and adolescence. This begins with Prince James growing up under a loving father and mother during a time of turmoil with the River lands' people. After an unsuccessful assassination plot on James' father, King Mar-rick, turns into the death of his mother, Mar-rick goes insane and begins his reign of terror as the Black King Nestros. Filled with rage and driven by paranoia induced grief at his loss, Mar-rick, or Nestros as he comes to be known by his people, the Infinite Woods escalates the conflict between nations and brutally murders all opposition to the crown, whether it's from within or without.
