Camera begins at maximum elevation and descends slowly on a continuous diagonal — moving forward and downward simultaneously, the settlement growing in detail as altitude decreases, stone and timber structures resolving from abstract shapes into inhabited buildings, hearth smoke parting around the camera's descent, golden hour from the west catching different surfaces as the angle changes, the settlement's sounds rising to meet the camera before the cut, never landing — always arriving.
