I think RISC-V is intended to be a simpler-to-implement processor that can also be used as a compilation target for existing languages, b/c it still shares many properties of x86/ARM (e.g. pointers, memory addresses, etc.). I don't think Tendrils' chips are intended necessarily to be able to run existing code, but instead will require Vine to be able to program for their chips.
Other than that, I don't think there's much relation between the two.
