Take Tau's chime, silent and still. Carry it to the bottom of Taproot, deep under my trunk, where she will make the chime her transit-body and walk away forever. Finish the ritual of -elseing.

At the bottom of Taproot, Tau manifests. She tells us, too, that another waits for her there.

Dyvvrach asks the player to help Tau separate from Chavvah. Depending on the player's choices, there are a variety of potential outcomes.
