A few months after the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], Rsyn was visited by [[Talik]], whose assistance she had requested due to [[Chiri-Chiri]]'s apparent illness. He counseled Rysn that the larkin must return to its home in [[Aimia]] (specifically the lost city of [[Akinah]]) in order for its condition to improve. Concurrently, [[Navani]] has put out a call for a ship to mount an expedition to Aimia, following the return of the ''[[First Dreams]]'' without its crew.{{book ref|sa3.5|1}} Rysn traveled to [[Urithiru]] with her new porter [[Nikli]] to discuss the terms under which she would commit the [[Wandersail_(1174 ship)|Wandersail]] and her crew to such a dangerous mission. An agreement was reached with [[Navani]] sending Windrunners [[Lopen]] and [[Huio]] for protection; the Ardent [[Rushu]] to discuss the possibility of a fabrial mobility device for Rysn; and having [[Queen Fen]] provide a royal mandate to motivate the Thaylen crew.{{book ref|sa3.5|2}}
At sea, Rysn
Rysn began to gain respect by handling successive 'omens' which appeared and troubled her crew. First, when the ship's grain was found to be infested, she consulted her notes from Vstim and directed the captain to trade with nearby [[Hexi]] nomads. They accepted the bad grain in exchange for jerky, saving the expedition's food stores. Later, when a [[santhid]] corpse washed up to the ship, she spun the arrival as a good omen and offered the crew a chance to rest ashore to pay respects to the greatshell.{{book ref|sa3.5|6}}{{book ref|sa3.5|8}} During the rest stop, [[Rushu]] experimented with Rysn's chair and aluminum-modified fabrials discovered by [[Huio]], leading to the creation of a prototype levitating chair. Rysn also received a spanreed
When both bad omens are revealed to have been [[Nikli]] plotting with the other [[Sleepless]] to scare the expedition away from Akinah, Rysn requested that Lopen and Huio remove [[Nikli]] from the ship. Wandersail continued to [[Aimia]], and traveled the strange storm around [[Akinah]] before finding safe harbor.{{book ref|sa3.5|12}} Rysn remained onboard, intending to set foot on the island once the landing became safe, although Chiri-Chiri dove overboard into the water and left her side. Rysn was the first to recognize that the gemhearts on the shore were fake and that a trap had been set, but is caught by surprise when [[Nikli]] returned to the ship. [[Cord]] grabbed Rysn and jumped into the water in an attempt to escape.{{book ref|sa3.5|15}}
In the water, [[Luckspren]] led the pair into a set of caverns beneath the surface of the island. The cavern contained a set of [[shardplate]], eight [[soulcaster|soulcasters]], and a mural depicting the shattering of [[Adonalsium]]. Upon staring at the mural, the [[Dawnshard]] contained within left the mural and joined with Rysn. Still unaware of the existence of the Dawnshard, Rysn and [[Cord]] planned to negotiate for safe passage home with a promise of secrecy - an offer the [[Sleepless]] were not interested in considering.{{book ref|sa3.5|18}}
At the conclusion of the negotiations, the crew of the Wandersail was permitted safe return with information about [[Akinah]] in addition to the shardplate and soulcasters found in the cavern. In return for their safety, Rysn had vowed to be the protector of the Dawnshard so that it was not in Akina when [[Cosmere]] forces eventually came in search of it. The [[Sleepless]] agreed to this plan under the condition that they be permitted to follow Rysn permanently. A two-layer cover story was created: it would be said
As Wandersail was pulling away from Aimia, [[Drlwan]] acknowledged that Rysn had put the crew before her own safety, and requested that she take the helm on their next voyage.
