A small child sits on the top of the hill, with a fluffy dandelion growing next to him. The little child reaches for it. Above the child, a large bird looking like an eagle flies away to the left. This is the "unhappy" ending - the men did not get their goal - there is only a small child present, reaching for its wishes to be granted.
