 In Bhujerba , they meet Lamont , a curious boy who is Vayne 's younger brother , Larsa , in disguise . Basch confronts the Marquis over his lies , but the party is captured and detained aboard the Archadian airship Leviathan , headed by Judge Ghis . On the Leviathan , the party is reunited with Amalia , who is revealed to be Princess Ashe . Ghis takes the magicite , which is revealed to be a royal Dalmascan artifact , " deifacted nethicite " , from Vaan to send to Archadia . The party escapes the airship , but as Ashe had planned to use the magicite as proof that she was the princess , the group makes plans to collect another of the pieces of nethicite , the Dawn Shard . They do so , but are again captured by Ghis ; when he tries to use the Dawn Shard in the Leviathan rather than the " manufacted " magicite it normally uses , his entire airship fleet is destroyed in a mirror of the destruction of Nabudis , and the party flees again .
