A scene from The NeverEnding Story 1984
Southern Oracle

Do not be afraid. We will not harm you. We have been waiting for you a long time, Atreyu.

Atreyu

Are you the Southern Oracle?

Southern Oracle

Yes, we are.

Atreyu

Then you must know what can save Fantasia!

Southern Oracle

Yes, we do.

Atreyu

Well? What is it? I have to know!

Southern Oracle

The Empress needs a new name.

Atreyu

A new name? That's all? But that's easy! I can give her any name she wants!

Southern Oracle

No one from Fantasia can do it. Only a human child can give her this new name.

Atreyu

A human child? Where can I find one?

Southern Oracle

You can only find one beyond the boundaries of Fantasia. [the Southern Oracle begins to crumble] If you want to save our world, you must hurry! We don't know how much longer we can withstand the Nothing.
