What happened to The Chamberlain? (Spoiler)


I was a little confused as to the ending? What happened to The Chamberlain at the end of the movie? Was he merged as well or was he killed before?

reply

Merged.

I think he (post-merge) was the one that talked to Jen and healed Kira.

I thought that was the post-merge General.

Of course,because he was the Urru´s Healer

Even when I was a child, I believed that the representative was the merged General, because he was the leader of the Skeksis. I figured that made since. Up until a few years ago, I didn't even know his urSkek name ... let alone the fact that he was the healer.

It's been a while since I've watched this movie. But I remember all of the urSkeks chanting during Kira's revival scene. I've always thought that they were all responsible for bringing her back to life.

Yea you can see him in the wide shot of all of them once the sunlight shines through the crystal and traps them all for the merge. I love that scene..well done for it's time.
