Plot Summary:
A Rayvateil can help people by the use of their song magic. Aurica Nestmile, a Rayvateil, tried to help Lyner Barsett by the use of her song, but she can't use her song magic well. Lyner asked her help to find an engineer to repair his airship. Together, they journeyed around the Firefly Alley to find an engineer, along the way, Lyner indirectly teaches Aurica how to use her song magic well.
At a time when Orica is saddened over her inability to fulfill her role as a Lavateil, or one who can control magical powers through singing Hymns, Laina's airship comes crashing down upon her from the sky. Both of them search for an engineer to repair his airship, meeting Cruze. In the process, Laina inadvertently teaches Orica that the key to singing a successful Hymn is to want to help others from the bottom of one's heart.
