Once more escaping the Hive's grasp, Taox took a spaceship to the capital of the [[Ammonite]] civilization that ruled Fundament's 52 moons, and was granted asylum.

Approximately 24,000 years later, the [[Dakaua]] discovered a starship which held Taox in cryo-stasis at roughly the same time they and the other species of the [[Ecumene]] were dealing with a Hive invasion. Taox shared what she knew about the Hive's leaders and their overall motivations with Dakaua leadership, who passed the information on to the Ecumene.
