Why is it so dark?
In the beginning, it is always dark.
What is that?
One grain of sand. It is all that remains of my vast empire.
Fantasia has totally disappeared?
Yes.
Then... everything's been in vain.
No, it hasn't. Fantasia can rise anew. From your dreams and wishes, Bastian.
How?
Open your hand. [places the grain in the palm of his hand] What are you going to wish for?
I don't know...
Then there will be no Fantasia anymore.
How many wishes do I get?
As many as you want. And the more wishes you make, the more magnificent Fantasia will become.
Really?
Try it.
[The Empress looks up and smiles too, and Bastian is shown riding on Falkor through the sky over a reviving Fantasia]
YEAH! Falkor, it's even more beautiful than I thought!
Like it?
Falkor, it's wonderful! Falkor, it's like the Nothing never was!
