He must be on a secret mission
behind enemy lines.

:55:02
It's all right to be upset.
:55:04
I'm not upset. I have to go now.
:55:11
We have to help Dad.
:55:13
Look, I know...
:55:15
I know you want to.
:55:17
But we just have to wait for news.
:55:19
Wait?
:55:20
- Yeah, I'm sure everything...
- Wait?

:55:23
Robert, I...
:55:29
Please be here.
:55:31
Please, Sand-fairy.
:55:33
Please.
:55:43
Why have you woken me?
:55:46
I lost something.
:55:47
Well, did you, indeed? Something precious?
:55:50
And you think I can help you to find it?
:55:52
With a wish.
:55:54
Well, of course.
:55:56
- I wish...
- No, stop.

:55:57
You've had all your wishes today.
:55:59
I gave you all wings.
That's not easy to do, you know.

:56:02
Wings is a big job.
:56:04
You might show some gratitude.
:56:06
I'm very grateful.
:56:08
But, Sand-fairy...
:56:10
I do need this wish.
:56:12
Well, all right, I can grant your wish.
:56:14
But when dawn comes, not before.
:56:17
- But you'll do it?
- Yes.

:56:19
But, child, what then?
:56:21
The wish will fade at sunset, you know.
:56:23
- Maybe this wish won't fade.
- But you know it will.

:56:26
What's the point in wishes that don't last?
:56:28
Magic... fades.
:56:31
That's its nature.
:56:33
It can show you the way,
:56:35
but in the end,
:56:37
it's up to you.
:56:39
As the years go on,
:56:41
your moments of magic
will become less and less.

:56:45
And before you know it...
:56:48
.. you too will have forgotten.
:56:50
Forgotten all this.
:56:53
Forgotten me.
:56:56
And the magic... will have faded.
