Thirst
Paige Alena for Karn
KARN
Female, 13-19, any ethnicity. Our hero. Needs to be able to sound like a young teen. She is quiet, brooding, and a master strategist who understands her strengths and others weaknesses. She has the ability to turn on the charm, but she is intensely alone. Listening to her develop mentally, emotionally, and spiritually over the series will be reminiscent of Arya Stark from GOT.
KARN(internal dialogue)
Ahhh the sun. It feels so sweet on my skin.
JACKSON
Be careful Karn, not too close to the edge of the roof.
She steps to the edge.
JACKSON
Karn the edge of the roof!
KARN
Jackson,I survived years stuck in that awful room... let me enjoy the roof, the sunlight, let me live on the edge a little.
Jackson laughs.
JACKSON
What does it feel like when you photosynthesize light into energy.
KARN
It feels warm and tingly.
JACKSON
Sounds nice.
KARN
It is. Any luck finding out where I came from?
JACKSON
No luck Karn.
KARN
Dr. Carlson says that science is my father. I’m a genetic experiment composed of the genes of thousands of composites.
JACKSON
And Eon?
KARN
Eon what am I?
EON
1111814-
Karn rolls her eyes.
KARN
Eon stop. Jackson, look at all those salties lined up downstairs. They don’t look well.
JACKSON
They’ve opened a new saltie medical clinic on the first floor of the Wall.
KARN
So many sick...
