In a dimly lit, ornate hall with tall pillars and a distant arched doorway, a group of figures in dark robes stand in a line, while a man with long blonde hair and a beard, wearing a patterned tunic, speaks with a serious expression. The scene cuts to a close-up of the man, who has a stern look, then to a close-up of another man with long brown hair and a weary expression, who looks directly at the camera with a slight, knowing smile, before the camera returns to the first man, who continues to speak with a serious, slightly concerned expression.
