Rui is a druid dedicated to Cha’Huate, the dying island-god. She’s been made into an aspect of its flora. Blind from birth, she was chosen by Empty Face to receive this blessing, and now serves her as the order serves Cha’Huate. Despite her small stature and serene disposition, Rui is furtively feared by the islanders for her peculiar mannerisms, her eyeless floral gaze, and because she attracts a lot of bees.
Cha’Huate’s blessing is apparent in Rui’s face, and more so in her effect on the world around her. She causes mutations and accelerated growth by bearing a fragment of the island god’s primal purpose, even as it dies. The island’s population of bees is attuned to her as is she were their queen.

Ollie knows the answer as it's his tale, but I'd suggest that Cha'Haute knows the purpose of her novel daughter and sole successor is fated, doomed and promised. She will take the place of Cha'Haute in her former province of power, the Sight hers and purpose bound. She knew it the moment she saw everything again in a brilliant singularity, then it exploded like the possibility of Everything, as a seed pod, a dandelion cloud on the wind.
An ark, below the Old Book, behind the dais, secret hidden in plain sight, that she is the Professor Returned. A blinded moment but with matchless wisdom sees better than the best sensor grid the Mothermode's ever built, and then some. And hope is the fuel that sets novelty to bear the new dawn, like Ra's novel purpose; like Bakka, told honestly that there is nothing here to weep for, only the merciful release of Providence to celebrate together.
But that's what I think. I say there's a method to every madness, and I like the madness I see here, a sensible, orderly chaos of clearsight.
