{{image|
Rysn and [[Vstim]] visited Relu-na hoping to trade for a [[larkin]] corpse. Rysn was shocked by the existence of Tai-na and was unfamiliar with the island's culture. She and her guards were led on a long hike up to Relu-na's head to meet the king, [[Ral-na]].{{book ref|sa2|i|3}} On the way, they encountered [[Axies the Collector]], who had been visiting Relu-na as part of his ongoing spren research.{{book ref|sa1|i|5}} Axies had tried to investigate the Tai-na spren, possibly [[mandra]]s, but the natives refused to discuss it and instead bound his feet and hung him upside-down.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}}
