Last year, I did some fluff for @stonegrotweek … Now, time for sadness! We all know how things will end for our beloved Gelfling friends…
“Two attempts to save the Crystal. One too soon, a life lost in both.”
I always thought that if season two happens in a way or another, Rian would not witness someone he loves dying…again! It would be his turn to lose his life saving a loved one and of course, it would be for his precious Deet. In her vision, we can see Rian trying to restore the Crystal but it doesn’t work. Certainly because it’s not the Great Conjunction yet? In my theory, that attempt makes the Crystal save Deet from the Darkening consuming her, but Rian is very soon circled by the Skeksis and Deet can’t save him…
…Like what happens to Jen and Kira in the end of the movie. Their existence parallels Rian, Deet and the rest of the resistance. Jen is maybe a Stonegrot son, or Kira, but one thing is for sure: they are the hope that couldn’t exist without them, without their love for each other and for Thra. A love that ended up saving the Gelfling race.
TODAY’S THE DAY! In just a few hours I’m going to watch The Dark Crystal (1982) for the first time in theaters, for its 40th Anniversary!
This is very exciting to me, because I love The Dark Crystal, and of course The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. I’m thankful for the joy and solace it’s brought to me especially in the low moments of my life when I needed comfort. I relate to these characters and I feel their pain and happiness through the screen. Their lives are full of trials and tribulations too.
I’ll be sure to be back later and let you all know how it went. this might even spark up me writing something for TDC AOR again as well… xx
I finally get to go experience The Dark Crystal (1982) in theaters in honor of its 40th Anniversary. I’m so excited and yes, I will be crying tears of happiness.
