INTRO

Black screen. Soft piano music plays.

NARRATOR (calm, serious): "In a kingdom built on joy and tradition, peace has always worn a familiar face."

Fade in: "The Mushroom Kingdom at sunrise. Toads open shops, flags wave, children laugh."

Cut to Mario walking through the town, waving. Peach smiles from the castle balcony.

NARRATOR: "For generations, heroes and villains have played their parts… and everyone knew how the story ended."

Sudden silence.

Dark clouds roll in. The ground trembles.

Cut: Bowser’s airships approach—but they stop. No attack. No fire.

PEACH (worried): “This isn’t like him…”

Cut to Bowser standing alone, staring at the kingdom—not angry, but uncertain.

NARRATOR: "But this time… the story is changing."

Quick cuts:

Luigi looking at a torn map

Yoshi running through burning fields

A shadowy new symbol carved into stone

Mario clenching his fist

NARRATOR: "When old enemies hesitate… and new threats rise…"

Mario turns toward the castle gates.

NARRATOR (firm): "every choice matters."

Title fades in:

MARIO: A TELLTALE SERIES
