Tsaheylu (the bond)

The direct neural link a Na'vi forms by interlacing the tendrils of their queue with those of another creature - a pa'li, an ikran, or another Na'vi. The pinkish nerve-endings interlock, opening a two-way real-time channel: motor commands, sensation, and emotion all flow across it. Canon likens it to a "biological ethernet cable." Through tsaheylu the mount becomes an extension of the rider's own musculoskeletal and nervous system.
