So I thought at first, that the entire encounter was a figment of Jean’s drunken imagination, a wish fulfillment of sorts, and he was speaking to a version of the crown prince made up in his head. Then you realize that he wasn’t actually drunk over a mere cup, and the prayers heard on the streets were for a ritual over the belief that the DEAD could visit once more.
It may very well be the crown prince himself who visited him; his expressions were simply much too independent to stem from Jean’s imagination, and the ending had been the complete opposite of what a wish fulfillment is. I think they were actually able to share words and feelings what they couldn’t have before. Excuse me while I sob and break down again.
