'' | On her [[Christmas]] holiday, [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] is invited to [[Qiyos]] by [[Gilly (Hue and Cry)|Gilly]] to celebrate [[Three Sisters (festival)|Three Sisters]], but the pod malfunctions and she, [[pilot (Wise Women)|the pilot]] and [[Andrea McCallister|Cally]] land some distance from where they intended. Gilly and a group of other [[Qiyotian]]s find them and take them on giant [[caterpillar]]-like [[Nermash]] that Benny, Cally and Gill fall from when Benny's, who is in season, mates with another. | ||
Gilly explains to Benny and Cally that the Three Sisters are a trio of [[star]]s, called [[Grandmother (star)|Grandmother]], [[Mother (star)|Mother]] and [[Daughter (star)|Daughter]], which align once a year. They meet the [[Mother of the Waters]] and gift the three newborn queens of Qiyos with Benny's [[rum]], Gilly's [[ukelele]] and Cally's [[jar]] of [[mountain]] [[snow]]melt. In return, the Mother of the Waters takes them back to the pod by [[hovercraft]] and they find that the pilot has called for a replacement. They celebrate the alignment. | |||
