When Opal returned to Byroden with Dariax, Dorian, Fearne, Orym, and Fy'ra, Ruby Lee was quick to welcome her back and introduce the others to Byroden. She served as head of the Byroden Forever festival, mistress of ceremonies for the 22nd Annual pageant, and one of the pageant's judges.[9] The festival included a day fair, a parade an hour before sunset, and a beauty pageant just before sunset.[10][11] She was somewhat alarmed when she learned that four of the pageant contestants would be performing in the talent portion together in one act.[12]
