Season 1 — "The Kingdom Begins" Josian emerges in the Lowside. His early miracles (healing a paralyzed man at a free clinic, restoring sight during a street confrontation, turning a near-empty food pantry into a feast for hundreds). He assembles the Twelve. John Rivers baptizes him publicly in the industrial canal. The Sanhedron Council begins watching. John Rivers is arrested. Josian weeps publicly. Season 2 — "The Plot Thickens" Josian's movement goes city-wide. The resurrection of Lazarus Wade triggers political crisis. Josian's triumphant walk through the Crossroads (modern Palm Sunday — thousands flooding the street, coats thrown down). The Last Supper — filmed in real time, in one restaurant, over two full episodes. Josian washes feet. Judas leaves. The garden scene in the city park at 3 AM. Arrest. Trial before Kaiaphas. Caius Pontiff on live television. The sentence. Season 3 — "Death & What Comes After" The execution (filmed with unflinching restraint — not exploitation, but weight). The three days. Magdalena at the tomb at dawn. The appearances. Thomas's moment. The ascension from a rooftop as the sun rises over New Elysia — Josian stepping backward off the edge of a building and simply not falling, rising, gone. Final scene: the Twelve and Magdalena, terrified and electric, beginning to move.
