In this sequence, the process of turning salt into salt crystals shows the eternal cycle of a mother’s love for her daughter throughout time and space. The metaphor of salt transforming into crystals represents how there are multiple realities that time can branch off into, and despite the uncertainty of which path time will flow into, a mother’s love for her daughter remains constant in all realities.
