Each of the dream fragment puzzles from the previous rounds gives a short word. These puzzles also have associated sets of symbols which indicate how to divide each answer into two pieces (except for the last one).
The puzzles are presented as nested circles, which suggests splitting each fragment answer as indicated and nesting the results, ten deep.
