4 panels, wide shots with spaces between each panel to indicate time passing. 4 horizontal bars…
Static camera
Panel 1
Eryn sitting comfortably in one of the few trees that speckle the surroundings: hills and grass, with Ealdulf’s forest in the distance. She is looking upward, and we have a profile view. She is absorbed in the sky. The clouds are whispy.
The comfort is important: she does this a lot. She is sitting on a branch, one leg dangling lazily. Maybe add a moon for dramatic affect. Up to you.
Panel 2
In the background, a cloud of birds rises from the trees. Eryn’s clothes and hair are blown by a breeze. She looks like she’s noticed something different.
Panel 3
The cloud of birds has spread, some flying higher, some farther. They are less dense, to indicate movement. Eryn has turned her head and seen the birds. The birds were frightened by the drum (it’ll be heard later).
Eryn: DAMN, IT’S STARTED ALREADY?
Panel 4
The tree branch is empty now. The scene is unchanged, except eryn can be seen in the middle ground, beginning her run.
Maybe make the clouds drift across the sky from panel to panel.

I take it the work has begun on the graphic novel...?
Not a bad idea. A small shift in cloud location would help with showing a little bit of time has passed, without being too obvious, or covering too much time.
dude, the last sentence of the script...
