In the Sun Kingdom, it is customary that a marriage in the royal family must earn the approval of the Ministry of the Priesthood. The Ministry rejects Nike, however, and demands that she perform the potentially fatal "Rite of Illumination." Livi is worried for Nike's safety, but Nike decides to perform the rite to see herself accepted.
Rain and clouds are ill-omened 
things which cover the sun.
المطر والسحب من الأشياء المشؤومة 
.التي تغطي الشمس
Regen und Wolken sind böse Omen,
die die Sonne verdecken.
Este país no necesita de cosas dañinas,
Chuva e nuvens são coisas odiadas
 e que cobrem o sol.
