cinematography read, and EP 3 has the shot that defines the show.

Kaia pushes him into the mud. He is standing, she is standing, then he is on the ground and the camera looks down at him.

That angle is the family. Early on he is filmed from above — yard, corridor, servants' table. They are not just treating him as lesser. They are pictured as higher.

Then in the valley the dragons kneel, and the camera moves to his eye level for the first time. Same actor. The lens stops looking down.

✨ What worked for me:
- Nobody in the family is ever shot from below until the end.
- The mud scene has no music. It is just wet ground.

✨ Bottom line: the whole hierarchy was a camera position.

Did you notice the angles?
