Maybe better things are waiting for me there. I don’t have any purpose anymore. It feels, empty. But there's some sort of freedom in that, in not having a set purpose. It’s just those memories- and dreams- that holds me back. Afterall, grief isn’t a storm that destroys you, it’s just like the tidal waves of the ocean. Returning again, and again, in a different form, in a different way, you must choose whether you’ll keep running from it, or if you’ll embrace it. You can’t keep running from it anyways. It will always reach you. EXPLAINATION: !! must watch all previous animatics for context Polaris choses to return to shores, accepting that he will never guide ships again by ripping the compass around is neck off and dropping it into the ocean. The compass is both a symbol of grief and Polaris's original wish to guide ships. In this animatic, he makes it very clear that he still grieves Momo even though he has attempted to move on. I wonder who he will meet at those shores...
