(They all gather and press closely round their MOTHER, hurrying and dragging her along and waving good-bye to TYLTYL: "See you soon! See you soon again!... Down there, down there!... See you soon!" ...THE MOTHER turns and gazes fixedly at TYLTYL; then the outlines of the hall darken, lose their colour and distinctness, dissolve and disappear. Only TYLTYL, LIGHT, DESTINY and THE SIX GIRLS remain in front of the Curtain representing the Milky Way.)
TYLTYL
Well, I'm in a nice mess!... What am I to do?... Is it my fault if I can't remember?...
LIGHT
Don't be afraid. They know what they are saying. You will find her again.... Let us go, quickly!... I am sure that she is waiting for you where you least expect her.
TYLTYL
(Dreamily.) She really is beautiful!... I believe they are right.... I believe it's really she....
(They all go out.)
