To intro, some background info: Imagining
My friend (Drbone) and I, were listening to the Spiral Knights music when he told me about what he sees when he hears the "Haven" song. This is an idea I loved and want all of you to imagine with me, just for a moment.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1prVJLPIb1A Here is the music to follow along.
---
As the music begins, you see the Cradle, the planet we are now on, but the view is from space.
As the music progresses to :15 seconds, the view scrolls over to the space above the Cradle, we all notice the Skylark, a massive ship that may have a different look for all of you, this is what I see:
~~~~
I see a large frontal lobe which houses the cockpit and most other navigation system and critical components. The ship is quite massive, on comparison with a Star Destroyer from Star Wars. The rest of the ship is directly behind this front portion in a straight line, (as the ship is all a straight line), now here's where it gets fuzzy, there are obviously windows, and thousands of escape pods, but I can't imagine much else. Which leads me to the thrusters, massive things, once again comparable with Star Destroyer's thrusters. propelling the ship forward with a red and orange flame.

Moving back to the song:
Once the song hits :16 seconds you hear a rise in the music, at this very moment, the Skylark explodes into flames which cover the screen for a moment. As the music continues, the screen is cleared and you notice the ship crashing downward into the planet, flames coming from large gashes in the ship's hull. Now at :30 seconds, the view moves into the ship. Several Cobalt armored knights are quickly rushing around steam filled hallways as a constant red warning lights are flashing above. Back outside again.
The ship is steadily closing into the planet, at :56 seconds the ship starts shooting out hundreds of escape pods as you see them heading downward into the planet. The view now follows a single pod's decent as it lights up in flames from the resistance of the atmosphere. Around 1:38 the view starts fading outwards as you can now see tons of escape pods steadily making their way down to the planet. The camera stays at this position for a while as you see the small explosions of the pods crashing into the ground.
Somewhere around this moment, the view goes to a Stranger, standing along (possibly in Haven) looking up to see the falling pods and the Skylark, as it explodes once more and crashes out of sight.
From here on out, I have lost most creative ideas. This is where I need your help, finish the movie for me, show me what comes next. What happens to the Skylark, what happens to the knights?
At 2:45 it zooms a dust cloud on the surface, the dust clears, and you can start to see a lone pod in it's crash site. Soon after, you notice a lone knight face down on the ground near the now-blown-off door. The camera starts to zoom in to the knights face. Now at 3:18 you see an eye open, and the camera quickly zooms out as the knight struggles to get up, looks around, and assess the situation.
The camera now starts to zoom out until it passes through some bushes but can still see the knight looking at his arm (As most knights do to check their messages). The knight is reading his message from Spiral HQ. But as 3:40 rolls around, you notice something moving among the bushes, a gremlin, and then another, they are watching the lone knight, as the knight finishes reading the message and begins to run off towards the Rescue Camp, they slink away.

This is what I see, this is what I want you to imagine. Help me finish the story, the gaps, or even better, help me make this a reality, make Three Rings, or anyone, make it into a "Intro To Spiral Knights Movie."
EDIT: I spelled Imagining wrong.
EDIT: Added in the Stranger idea DrBone reminded me of.
EDIT: Added in the above EDIT message.
I'll do a single bump, simply because I really want someone to help me finish this story.
