Backend notes

If trying to match structure similar to a film, is it possible that there is one A plot and several B plots? If so, what's the 3-act structure on this work?

  • Inciting incident: Bombing of Hemuntaari
  • First plot point: may happen early in ep 4, not somewhere in ep 3.
    • Is it Neyu learning her sister's unit was considered a total loss?
    • Is a B plot point the Pertaman passenger arriving?
  • What is the mid point? What's going on? Where are they? On the ship? On Gantu?
  • What is Plot Point 2? If we still go with Neyu as the nominal primary character, then what if Samsithi returns?
    • Sami should not rescue her sisters; she's ruined and rattled from the fighting (echoes of WWI)
    • She finds them and seeks refuge, leaving Neyu and Pukka with "leadership" roles
  • What if P2 is the crew discovering their AWOL passenger?
  • What is the climax? Fighting to reach Jutkara? What are they fighting against? Are Pertaman forces chasing after their AWOL people? And if so, why?
