"The Heart of Atlantis."
"What?"
"It's the Heart of Atlantis. That's what the shepherd was talking about. It wasn't a star, it was some kind of crystal, like these. Don't you get it? The power source I've been looking for, the bright light you remember, they're the same thing!"
'It cannot be..."
"It's what's keeping all of these things, you, all of Atlantis, alive!"
"Then where is it now?'
"I don't know. I don't know. You'd think something this important would've been in the journal but... Unless, the missing page..."

I've been in an Atlantis phase recently so I decided to watch Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire last weekend. I love this movie, and I'm really glad it's starting to reach cult status. It's one of my favorite Disney films. In fact, it's very similar to Laputa: Castle in the Sky, which is probably why I like it so much. Both films include a search for a lost civilization, a princess of the civilization that wears a glowing magical pendant connected to a mother crystal that is wanted by the movie's villian. Both have a young man that falls in love with said princess and both try to uncover the secrets of the lost civilization. In my opinion, Ghibli's film told the story better, but I still love Disney's effort. So anyway, I also decided to draw a page from the Shepherd's Journal, the ancient book that leads the team to Atlantis. This page refers to the Heart of Atlantis, and was of course stolen by the villain to hide it from everyone. I tried to be as faithful as possible, but unfortunately I always ran out of room for the lines of Atlantean script, so they're cut off at the ends. Oh well. I'm not Milo. XD
