Details

Description

Prologue
Step into the opening Prologue of "Ten Plagues for a Godless Age", a Shakespearean rock opera for our century. The Crimson Bard steps forward, lantern in hand, not to warn of divine wrath—but of the disasters we author ourselves.

The Prologue invites you into a whispered confessional, where poetry, rock, and stark truth collide. Here, the plagues are not miracles or punishments from on high—they are born of human greed, neglect, and the chemistry of our own making. A blue planet adrift in the void becomes the stage for every choice we’ve made, every cost we’ve ignored.

🎭 Style & Mood:
Elizabethan fire meets raw, modern poetry. Haunted piano. Spectral strings. Operatic crescendos. Rock’s electric bite.

🔬 Science Behind the Story:

No prophecy here—only cause and effect.

Atmospheric CO₂ raises ocean acidity, unbalancing the carbonate cycle essential to life, Excessive Nutrients from Runoff, search out the science!

What the ancients might have called “plague” is now explained by climate science, ecology, and hard data.

The coming acts reveal the truth behind each modern plague—rooted in fact, not faith.

💬 Key Motif: Not from God. From our own hands.
