Here's what I'm thinking: Delane's "torture" doesn't actually last that long and only consists of them first asking [as nicely as they can], then the one who pins her down (Pherrick?) presses on her throat, threatening to bite. It goes too far when an overeager Pherrick (?) "punishes" her for insulting Osiris and gives her a severe wound. Osiris says he went too far and tells him to get off. Delane struggles to rise but can barely sit up. One of the twins (the sibling wolves) takes the [bloodied] cloak from under her and the other [with the better nose] says that they can track her scent back to where she originally came from--and to the others and Airi. When she tries to stop them, Osiris kills her to put her out of her misery. She bleeds out and pretty much sees the mains, as described before, as she bleeds out.
When the "baddies" finally find the mains, Osiris apologizes for having to kill Delane, as he didn't think a dog would really be friends with wolves. The act causes the mains to definitely put a wall between Osiris and his pack who wouldn't have minded the mains joining before (?).
I also think:
Osiris's group used to be larger but suffered a great loss (making his cubs and mate die?) due to humans [either hunting them down or causing a fire that killed them?--would some wolves have burn marks on their designs, if so?]. That's another reason why they don't want humans to survive, besides them corrupting the first paradise.

More ideas:
ReplyDeleteEaster eggs! We could add bits and pieces of info from the original series into this one or allude to past events/legends.
Example: Demon could live in the desert (or near it) where the original WR group met that tribe of humans and Kiba was taken away to the false paradise. Maybe Dee could warn the others to stay out of a certain area, due to there being a single, ancient plant that will “suck the life out of you” or your soul or whatever if you go near it.
Maybe the frozen sea (where Toboe fought that giant walrus) is mentioned or actually explored, on their way to Paradise).
Architectural settings from the original may mostly be buried under the earth, but that doesn’t mean that the geological (natural) settings have been lost. Some may have changed in all those years, but can’t be completely lost.
Another thought, on humans:
Their position in the world needs to be made more clear. Are they doing all they can to survive and are literally fighting each other for food, water, resources? Are they turning to religion (maybe paradise/wolf-related?)?
Maybe if we show the humans in a bit of chaos as they realize the world's dying or whatever, it'll make the "race" to Paradise more urgent, especially for the human scientists, at least one of whom is doing it for his/her family. The “main”/lead scientist could potentially be the one with the most at stake. Maybe his/her family is in more immediate danger? Maybe one scientist could have already lost family members or friends [someone close] and feels the need to get on track and find Paradise so no one else suffers?
We need to decide what happens to scientists at the end, too; do they die or do they move on to their own, reborn world, with most of them alive?
I guess we need to figure out what happens at the end, period, though.
Death idea:
Near the end, the sibling “bad guys”: one of the mains knocks one over the cliff, and its sibling takes out the main by knocking her over the cliff [with him/herself].
Gonna post this one the front page xD
