1) Humanoids were once a powerful race
2) Humanoids were punished by the higher beings ( creatures we have yet to see that were probably their creators ) for some unknown fault or rebellion (ex. giving fire to lesser minions ? )
3) the punishment was a plague ( growing black veins ) that destroyed them except the king that was imprisoned forever in the temple ... ( watch also the scars on the statue )..the temple of course is a big prison/tomb , there are the bodies of the followers ( like egypt ) there are the uniforms , there are the offers
4) however humanity survived the plague but the higher beings were unaware of that
5) the prison/tomb have his measures of defences , one of which is the "relict"
6) the humans free the king and inadvertitely alarm the higher beings
7) the humans save the king ( the guy on the wheelchair ) and they start to fight the monsters ( tentacular ones ) and are also infected by the mechanism of defences ( the higher beings were of course powerful bio engineers )
8) a speceship is sent to destroy humans once for all
9) the prometheus crew manage to delay the higher beings plans until ...
10) the king sacrifice himself to save earth
( PS i dont think this will be the real plot ..but is one i did like to think :p )
