Queen Fen of Thaylenah and Queen Navani of Urithiru fund an expedition to find the city and discover its secrets. They hire the Wandersail, the most advanced ship in the Thaylen fleet, owned by new trademaster Rysn. Rysn is given the ardent Rushu to search for secrets, the Windrunners Lopen and Huio to protect her, and the Horneater Cord to cook.But everyone on the ship has their own goals and secrets. The captain is not pleased with how her ship ended up in Rysn's hands. Rysn is mostly in the expedition in a desperate attempt to heal her rare pet.

Amplifier Artifact: It's implied that the Dawnshards act as these, elevating other Invested Arts to titanic power but incapable of being used on their own. This is part of why the Sleepless end up allowing Rysn to remain the Change Dawnshard, since without a spren bond she cannot actually use the Command to do anything.

Accidental Discovery: Huio disassembles a spanreed, and when he puts it back together it doesn't work right. Rushu realizes that accidentally leaving a piece of aluminum inside the casing has caused the sympathetic movement to decouple; now only lateral movement is sympathetic, side-to-side movement is normal—meaning that she can quickly give Rysn a hover chair. Rushu says that a lot of important discoveries are accidents.

Ancient Conspiracy: The Sleepless, who we have learned in previous books are dedicated to hiding something on Aimia at all costs. They are guarding the Dawnshard, a Cosmic Keystone that was one of four used to unmake Adonalsium.
