• [speech to the world] 

  Arthur Curry : I come here as a representative of two worlds, the land and the sea, and I stand here as proof that change is coming to both. And I am calling for global unity, for a global crisis, to finally bring harmony between us and the natural balance of our world. Atlantis stands ready to help contribute its science and technology. With your knowledge of the air, and our knowledge of the seas, together we can write the next chapter in our story, rather than its ending. Sometimes it's gonna seem like our differences are too extreme, but all we have to do is look beneath the surface, to see that we are all here on this planet with the same goals and aspirations, even when our customs might seem strange and unfamiliar. By overcoming our prejudices, we'll become stronger and learn more about ourselves. We can cease this moment to create a hopeful future, for our children and our families.
