			<description>In which Ellyra sings! And by the way, if you want to pinpoint a reason for why this chapter took so long, BLAME THE STUPID SONG. I swear it took me more time to write that stupid ballad than it did to write the whole rest of the chapter.</description>

			<title>Beauty Blind</title>

			<title>The Overwhelming Question</title>
