Taffa appears in a vision as a wife and mother, an image of domestic life and human closeness. The book gives her a memorable visual impression but little individual history beyond that glimpse, leaving her role more emblematic than developed.
Description
Taffa is a middle-aged woman with thick, curly hair that gives her appearance a soft, distinctive fullness. She wears a one-piece blue dress, simple and practical in style. Her presence is that of a wife and mother, familiar and grounded, though the text does not specify her complexion, eye color, facial features, or build.
