Sequence[]
On a manilla canvas, depicted is a hanging droplet of water, which breaks and splashes down. Leaves blow in, along with a spiralling pan shot of Grogu in a meditative state. Soot sprites arrive, first a few, then a cluster. He yawns, whose figure breaks into a splash and reappears, rattling his head and opening his eyes.
Grogu, floating upright, see Soot sprites arrive. He gently plants his feet down and cautious walks back from them. He proceeds to stroll as soot sprites follow, who first break into a splash, then reappear. He then runs and stumbles, standing up a giving a nod to the four soot sprites. They arrange themselves vertically, and hand him a flower. He accepts it with a bow. The soot sprites break away in an celebratory manner, he smiles and gestures a circle with an arm. Fade in is a zen circle.
