I thought I'd share the updates that I've been doing to the script. I use git to keep track of the different versions, as I find the color coding version is not enough. I do a lot of changes and I'd like to be able to roll back to them. Also git allows me to enter a commit message per change so I know what I changed. Anyway, here is the story update log:

    COTR: Updating the mid section
    
    A plan on changes for the section after the decoration shop
    sequence. Basically, I've drawn Mary as someone who tries to
    educate kids about her tradition and her culture. She views
    education as the way to change the world around her.
    
    Joseph on the other hand feels betrayed by his surroundings.
    He would rather fight the Eitorians than live with them.

    We will reveal that this tattoo is given to all the people of their
    town on birth. Hadrian has a faded or burned off one. He doesn't
    remember how he got it. We build up the relationship between
    Hadrian and Mary. Hadrian confides in Mary the secret of him being
    half Stronglandian. But she ends up betraying him to save the baby.

    COTR: Some major plot updates
    
    Beside the list of updates mentioned prior, one major change is how the story
    starts. One of the big issues I was having is the introduction of the
    beast/Eimar character. We see him on page 1, and then we don't meet
    him again until page 26. And on page 1 we don't establish anything
    about him. Basically the story now starts with an establishing
    scene between Joseph and Eimar.
    
    We show how they are friends, and then Eimar gets hunted down by
    Eitorian hunters, weaponized and used to attack Patrick and his family.
    This leads to significant conflict between Alfreda and Joseph later on
    when Alfreda wants to kill off Eimar.

    COTR: Finished the Synopsis
    
    Wrote a synopsis which turned out to be too long and
    probably not very well written. But the up side is that
    I identified a few things I need to update in the script
    
    1. Need to refer to Patrick's family as "The House of Patrick"
    2. Need to refer to Marcus's family as "The House of Marcus"
    3. Patrick exact title is "Sir Patrick the Second"
    4. Joseph and Mary's country is called Strongland
    5. The people of Strongland are called Stronglandians
    5. Patrick and Marcus belong to a country called Eitoria
    6. Patrick's people are called Eitorians.
    7. Mary and Joseph's province is called "Little Strongland"
    8. Update the beast attack scene. The way he's controlled is by
       stabbing him with poison and then when he is confused they
       get him to sniff a person's garments. He then redirects his
       rage and kills those people.
    9. When the guards shoot at the beast they should dip their arrows
       in poison.
    10. Joseph should use the rope trick to disable the chasing guard.
        Thereby, foreshadowing how he will trick the beast.
    11. Update the scene when Joseph wants to return the baby for the
        reward. Mary should want to return the baby to Alfreda. Joseph
        should counter that Alfreda most probably didn't survive the
        attack.
    12. Joseph then remembers the conversation with his sister and
        Alfreda.
    13. We need to add the medallion in the new sequence.
    14. We need to update the sequence when he meets Alfreda. Does it
        still make sense for Joseph to get Mad at Alfreda?
    14. Update the sequence when Joseph goes to Patrick's house. It is
        no longer the case that Alfreda tricked him to go there.
    15. One question we still need to answer is how is Marcus planning
        to put in effect the signed contract. We can make it clear that
        he plans to kill Patrick once he signs the contract and then
        he will spare Jaime and the baby since they'll be of no consequence
        to him. Are we going to need to foreshadow the fact that the leaders
        of Eitorian houses have the right to put to death people who betray
        Eitoria?

    COTR: Major Story update
    
    I cut out the following: 1. The sequence between Zakary and Joseph, where
    Joseph steals the money (not necessary) 2. The sequence of Joseph and Mary
    going back to the place where they live (we already established they are
    poor. So there is nothing interesting there) 3. The sequence where they
    meet Alfreda again (Doesn't add anything except exposition) 4. The
    sequence when they run into Marcus and decide to kidnap the baby back (I
    always felt it's just too coincidental and I wasn't comfortable with it.)
    
    This cuts out all that middle chunk. I think it makes the story a lot more
    streamlined. That whole section which I cut out doesn't seem to add much
    to the characters. We already know that Mary is the impulsive but good
    natured kid and looks at the good side of people. While Joseph is
    established as the guy who just wants to survive and take care of his
    sister. Marcus is the bad guy who doesn't like fair skinned folk. Patrick
    and Jaime are the mixed race couple in royalty who are not very well liked
    because of the threat they represent to the ruling class.
