An errant cloud drifting uncontrolled on a breeze revealed Hathi Aves,
Warden of the Swans, and his young son, Taelo Aves, a pair of trill
dedicated to tending the Clarramore's swan flock. Their portion of the
Clarramore Cloud Gardens was set adrift and recently reunited with the
estate properly. In his travels, Hathi Aves found a mysterious shard
that he swore could hear the swans' innermost thoughts.

Emeritus Ayisdra Ysav'rai was the first to discover the cloud bearing
the flock and committed his time to unlock this mystery. Trekking far
and wide, his first steps were riddled with unknowns. Eager to assist,
the Winter Orchid, Anita Zayah, offered her help as well. Meanwhile, the
Sublime Opus Nelras and Aficionado Xeii Shevat delved more into the
Aves' and swans' backgrounds by conversing with Taelo, who mentioned the
family's penchant for keeping swans since the departing of their beloved
Jilai Clarramore.

Soon it became evident the swans held more knowledge than their shy and
demure countenances would imply. Normally mute, swans only release their
songs on the point of death in gorgeous clarion notes of beauty and
power. However, Emeritus Ayisdra's efforts coaxed a musical tale from
the Clarramore flock, a story hidden behind their eyes. Upon realizing
the connection to Lord Crys, the Keeper of Song whose crystalline
talents flow through the Symphonium, Nelras, the current Opus, called
upon all Symphonists to witness what might come next. A wise decision
before the historical discovery to come.

With the masterful assistance of Marquis Falmiis Shevat, the group
gathered by the humble and quaint swan pond unlocked the final mystery.
The audience basked in the unleashed duet of Crys and Jilai, revealing
secrets and personal memoirs unknown to mortals in centuries.
