The NeverEnding Story1984

Bastian:
Why is it so dark?

The Childlike Empress:
In the beginning, it is always dark.

Bastian:
What is that?

The Childlike Empress:
One grain of sand. It is all that remains of my vast empire.

Bastian:
Fantasia has totally disappeared?

The Childlike Empress:
Yes.

Bastian:
Then... everything's been in vain.

The Childlike Empress:
No, it hasn't. Fantasia can rise anew. From your dreams and wishes, Bastian.

Bastian:
How?

The Childlike Empress:
Open your hand. [places the grain in the palm of his hand] What are you going to wish for?

Bastian:
I don't know...

The Childlike Empress:
Then there will be no Fantasia anymore.

Bastian:
How many wishes do I get?

The Childlike Empress:
As many as you want. And the more wishes you make, the more magnificent Fantasia will become.

Bastian:
Really?

The Childlike Empress:
Try it.

Bastian:
[starting to smile] Then my first wish is...

[The Empress looks up and smiles too, and Bastian is shown riding on Falkor through the sky over a reviving Fantasia]

Bastian:
YEAH! Falkor, it's even more beautiful than I thought!

Falkor:
Like it?

Bastian:
Falkor, it's wonderful! Falkor, it's like the Nothing never was!
