# THE TESTAMENT — Multimedia Masterpiece Plan

## The Vision

The Testament isn't just a book. It's a world. The men, the tower, the green light — these exist beyond the page. Every medium that can carry the story should carry it.

Eight epics. Each is self-contained. Each adds a layer. Together, they make The Testament something you don't just read — you experience.
