Lyney and Aether first meet in Fontaine, during Fontaine's archon quest. While the traveler and Paimon checks on his twin sister, he apears and introduces himself as Lyney and Paimon explains that Lynette was talking to them, which surprises Lyney as he knows she usually keeps to herself. Paimon then asks about what Lynette was saying, so Lyney explains that it is a prophecy going around in Fontaine. He then formally greets the pair. Learning the reason for their visit, Lyney offers to take them to the opera house. He later helps the traveler to avoid his arrest.

During a trick on Lyney's perfomance Lyney has some difficulty in finishing the trick. While he successfully gets out of his own box, the other one fails to do so, instead resulting in the water tank from earlier breaking, leaving Lyney shocked. Everyone on the opera believed that Lyney was the culprit,Furina then declares Lyney a suspect due to the circumstances involved. Neuvillette then asks Furina if she was going to press charges on Lyney, which surprises her, but with the audience believing otherwise, ends up declaring a duel between her and the Traveler.

During the trial, When Lyney maintains his innocence, Furina points out that around the half-way mark, there was a loud thud and expresses doubt that he could not have heard it, surprising him, while the scales tilt in her favor. She then exposes them as members of from the House of the Hearth, surprising the Traveler and Paimon as this meant that they were Fatui agents. This results in the audience supporting Furina's claims while she notices the Traveler is speechless, believing herself to have won. Neuvillette asks Lyney if what Furina said was true, which he confirms. At the opera's backstage, Lyney expresses surprise that Furina would have dug deep into their past, while the Traveler and Paimon are upset by the deception. The twins apologize for deceiving them, knowing of their records with the Fatui, but Lyney insists that he is innocent in this case. The Traveler agrees to help to see justice served correctly.

With the case over, Lyney and Lynette talk to the Traveler again, thanking them for their help and apologizing for deceiving them.
