The elves deviously give a cursed chest to Menel as a gift. When the box is opened, it immediately causes a devastating storm that follows its bearer. Thalia discovers the secret and struggles to get the box away from their village. With Salamacis' help, she swims through an underground stream and delivers the "present" back to the elves. In the confusion that follows, only the perfect shot of an arrow can save the situation. Unfortunately, this shot rests with Balabust, not Daiman. But he succeeds and manages to destroy both the box and the storm.
