The protagonist experiences a powerful nostalgia for his family, filled with deep affection and sorrow. His belief in the necessity of disappearing resonates strongly within him, perhaps even more intensely than it does for his sister. This reflects a profound internal struggle as he contemplates his existence and the impact of his transformation on his loved ones.

As he remains in a state of tranquil contemplation, the clock chimes three, signifying the passing of time. Outside, dawn begins to break, symbolizing the inevitability of change. Ultimately, he succumbs to his fate, as fatigue overtakes him and he breathes his final breath, symbolizing the end of his transformation and existence in that moment.
