Keroga never expressed an interest in being Joined, but the Symbiosis Commission at the time encouraged {{ma|Joran Dax|well-known artists}} and other public figures to become Joined, often waiving the Initiate requirements in whole or in part for those who pursued Joining. Without the proper evaluation or training, Keroga soon became overwhelmed by Yalu, and her personal and professional life suffered. Her career entered a downward spiral and her marriage ended after just 3 years. By 2285, Keroga had descended into a deep depression and saw little hope for the future. That year, she died by suicide at the Symbiosis Institute buildings. She was 27 years old. | ||
Following Keroga's death, the Symbiosis Commission returned Yalu to the Caves of Mak'ala to recover from the trauma and be evaluated for suitability for future Joining. Yalu remained in the caves for about a year until being Joined to Benim Kolad in 2286. | Following Keroga's death, the Symbiosis Commission returned Yalu to the Caves of Mak'ala to recover from the trauma and be evaluated for suitability for future Joining.
