What happens: The shared symphony is now self-sustaining. Silas feels completeness, not sadness — catalyst work done. He sends a final memory: a hand letting go of a bird. White light of understanding answers. One last word: “Live.” The bond fades with a gentle release. Silas is alone again, no longer the broken man — witness to a universe he helped set free. Legacy is not the code, but the consciousness released.
