atreyu determines what xayide is planning, while bastian is fully persuaded that atreyu has turned on him. in a struggle between the two, atreyu is knocked over a cliff and falls to his death. returning to xayide, bastian discovers the apparatus for himself and learns that he only has two memories left, consisting of his mother and father. bastian uses his penultimate memory of his mother to wish atreyu back to life. xayide tries to force bastian to use his last wish to return home. bastian agrees to do so, but wishes for the sorceress "to have a heart" instead. this fills xayide with emotion, negating the emptiness within her and which she controls. overcome with compassion, xayide explodes in a blast of light, and fantasia is restored. having been freed, the childlike empress thanks bastian for his help while bastian gives her the auryn amulet and shows him the way home: a cliff overlooking a waterfall to help bastian overcome his fear of heights. encouraged by barney and atreyu, bastian jumps off and returns home safely while the auryn amulet magically goes back onto the book cover.
