When I saw that letter to Mount Aris, I knew I just had to deliver it immediately! It wasn't an emergency letter or anything, I'd just been wanting to go there ever since its restoration.

Silverstream loves her friends more than anything in the world. She wants for them to be happy all the time. But when she notices a lack of family getting in the way of Gallus's happiness, she makes it her mission to fix that. How will she fix it? Simple. Just let him share hers! All she has to do is convince her family that Gallus would make the perfect addition to it. Oh, and not tell them about her motives in the process, since it's going to be a surprise after all.

Of course, because she's being so secretive about it, the other parties involved can't help but misinterpret her intentions on trying to sell Gallus to her family....

Sky Beak and Ocean Flow relax by the beach and engage in a conversation they've had many times before.

Having learned that one of her fellow students can't swim, Silverstream takes it upon herself to correct that oversight. To that end, she calls up her brother, Teramar, and ropes Ocellus into a make-shift swimming camp for Yona.

Although a part of Yona understands why she needs swimming lessons, the more dominant part of her would rather be anywhere but in the water. However, Silverstream is determined to get Yona to be able to swim.

Will Silverstream, Teramar, and Ocellus succeeded? Or is Yona destined to never be a swimmer?

This story is a sequel to Nightingale
