Story

Jon stands in a raw, temple-like space, two columns rising on either side. Liquid pours into his mouth as a choir sings around him. The flow stops, and he begins to sing. As the camera lifts past the two monumental columns flanking him, they seem to stretch endlessly upward—until they’re revealed as the towering heels beneath his feet. He balances high above the city, holding a jar of that same liquid. Slowly, he begins to move, attempting to walk.

Each step becomes a transformation: dust lifting, skies shifting. After a few steps, the columns crack against the earth, and Jon falls—singing through shards as night crashes in. The descent feels more like a trance than a collapse. He lands in a storm of broken pieces, rises, and walks toward an open door framed by darkness.

Inside, hands emerge from the void—tender, countless—touching his face and body until he’s fully embraced, consumed, delighted. A final hand reaches out and slowly shuts the door, marked with Jon Darc’s emblem. Silence settles. The space is empty once again.
