Scheme of the narrow-line region in NGC 1068 (not to scale). The ionized AGN wind (green) is blueshifted (blue arrows) on the front face and redshifted (red arrows) on the back, as viewed along the line of sight. Interaction between the AGN wind and the CND (yellow ellipses) drives molecular outflows, blueshifted in the south and redshifted in the north, as observed by ALMA. The tilt of the AGN wind relative to the CND affects outflow locations: in the north, it interacts farther from the AGN than the inner edge (marked by purple crosses) of the CND, while in the south, interaction occurs at the inner edge. As a result, the strongest molecular outflows emerge at the inner edge of the southern CND and farther from the inner edge in the northern CND.
