Chapter 386 On Set

She’d been trending on social media just a few days earlier.

Between Princess Mona’s viral scene and Lavender’s illness and treatment, her name had been everywhere.

At that moment, Elliot was in the middle of filming a scene.

The lead actor, Jordan, was there too, armored and throwing himself into a horseback battle.

His movements were crisp and precise, brimming with youthful energy.

Scarlett had no doubt that once this film was released, Jordan would become a sensation.

The scene soon wrapped, giving everyone a chance to take a break.

The stage manager approached Elliot with a quick update.

When Elliot heard Scarlett had arrived, he took the opportunity to greet her during the break.

The moment he saw her, his stern demeanor melted into a broad, welcoming smile.

Her look for the role was simple, but she definitely needed a full face of makeup.

Her character–General Shinera, Duo Shinera–had no real given name, the sole survivor of her family.

She was tall and had dark skin.

Scarlett, with her pale complexion, needed several shades of dark foundation.

Her height, nearly five feet eight, was just right for the part.

Other than the foundation, her makeup was left minimal.

Her hair was styled in a loose ponytail, tied with rough twine, with a single lock of hair draping down her temple.

Once her hair and makeup were done, she suited up in heavy black armor.

When everything was finished, the young makeup artist blushed furiously.

She stammered, “Ms. Scarlett… could I take a photo with you?”

Scarlett smiled. “Of course.”

The girl’s cheeks went even redder as she snapped photo after photo.

She grew more excited as Scarlett posed with a fierce, determined look, perfectly matching Duo’s character.

Scarlett noticed the girl looked ready to faint and couldn’t help laughing.

That gentle laugh almost sent the girl swooning.

She swallowed hard, thanking Scarlett over and over.

Scarlett left the trailer, and Maggie’s face was just as red–she stammered, unable to meet Scarlett’s eyes.

Elliot was relentless when it came to his films.

He insisted on perfection, down to every last prop.

All the generals‘ armor was custom–made, each set weighing dozens of pounds.

Scarlett, even burdened with the armor, moved with effortless grace.

She found the stage manager, who was taken aback by how striking she looked.

He had to admit, she was made for the role.

He wondered how she’d perform.

Other actors had trained for months.
