On one wall, we can see a monitor showing scenes from “The World of ‘The Dark Crystal,’” a behind-the-scenes documentary which shows just how complicated puppetry can be. Some of Froud’s original paintings and drawings are included in the show, and they reveal the evolution of the characters.

31, the Center for Puppetry Arts will open a new exhibit of artifacts from the movie called 'Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal: World of Myth and Magic.' It will remain in the special exhibitions gallery at least through the winter. It also gave Henson training in new and experimental special effects that helped him make 'Labyrinth' four years later.

Some parents were ambivalent about a kids movie that might give kids nightmares. Kira was then mortally wounded by skekZok.Ambitious and costly, “The Dark Crystal” received mixed reviews. Kira picked up the shard to keep it from the Skeksis, and then sacrificed herself to give the shard to Jen so he could heal the Crystal. As Jen tried to escape a Garthim attack, he jumped onto the Dark Crystal and dropped the shard. The Skeksis spotted Kira and Jen and called on the Garthim to attack.

Kira, now free of her bonds, fled to the Crystal Chamber. UrTih, his urRu counterpart, sympathetically died in a flash. In the chaos, skekTek was thrown into the shaft below the Dark Crystal and fell down into the Lake of Fire. She urged Kira to fight the effects of the Dark Crystal and Kira did, calling out to the imprisoned animals in the Podling tongue and inciting them to escape their cages and free her.

Kira was then taken to the Chamber of Life by skekTek and drained of her essence. Because of this deed, SkekSil was then reinstated as Chamberlain. Kira was then captured by SkekSil and he presented her as a hostage to skekUng, the newly crowned Emperor. With the landstriders’ help, they swiftly rode to the Castle, fighting off the Garthim raiders, and sneaking into the Castle through the Teeth of Skreesh. Kira summoned a pair of landstriders to help them on their quest. SkekSil confronted them at the Wall of Destiny, attempting to “make peace,” but Kira kept her wits and the pair of Gelfling fled to the Hill of the Landstriders. It is only in that moment that Jen and Kira truly understood the Prophecy they must take the True Shard to the Castle before the Great Conjunction and heal the Dark Crystal. Jen and Kira fled to the “Houses of the Old Ones” and there they discovered the Wall of Destiny. When the Garthim pursued her and Jen on their journey, she sheltered Jen in the Podling village, but the village was raided and destroyed by Garthim soldiers.

She met Jen while he was exploring the swamp after he fled from the Garthim.
