Goodnight to the Children

When the movie ended, the groggy children were ushered to dinner. They welcomed their lost friend, who had been found, back into the fold.

They played and laughed as if nothing had happened. At times, they were scolded for their overzealous behavior. Their interactions were pure, untainted by the mark of the struggle for power. Their day would come, and until now, they would play without a care.
