That would be boring and predictable. My version is this: When Kir disbanded the organization, the need for a hostage disappeared. Therefore, to get at least some benefit from her, Tayu was sold into slavery. By fate, the buyers turned out to be followers of Elulu-Suen. Time passed, and eventually, the girl broke and accepted the new teaching, eventually even reaching the status of a Naramesh. But she did not forget her husband and, having gained long-awaited freedom, went in search of him. But will Kir be able to love the new Tayu?
