ANKA: Seeker of the Trumpets

In the year 3000, scavengers survive in wastelands left by massive natural disasters. Scavenger tribes fight over major resources and the direction of mankind as they wait for the rapture.

Anka, a child of the Emeth tribe is taken from her tribe during a raid. After escaping the enemy tribe she returns to find her own lifeless and desolate. From the corner of her eye, she spots a strange creature. It is a whimpering lamb with odd markings. Anka chases the bleeding lamb as he runs into the desert. Following a trail of blood on the sand she finds a magnificent oasis.

The lamb transforms into a giant bovine beast and speaks to her in an echoing voice.

He explains that he is a messenger of God sent on a holy mission to retrieve the seven trumpets. The trumpets are the key to a great cleansing of the earth and the renewal of the land. Walking through the garden oasis he shows her flowers she has never seen and fruit she has never tasted. "Hunger, strife, war, all of this would cease in the land of New Jerusalem... and you are its key".
