$ABC$ is a triangle with a circumscribed circle $k$, center $I$ of its inscribed circle $\omega$, and center $I_a$ of its excircle $\omega _a$, opposite to $A$. $\omega$ and $\omega _a$ are tangent to $BC$ in points $P$ and $Q$, respectively, and $S$ is the middle point of the arc $\widehat{BC}$ that doesn’t contain $A$. Consider a circle that is tangent to $BC$ in point $P$ and to $k$ in point $R$. Let $RI$ intersect $k$ for a second time in point $L$. Prove that, $LI_a$ and $SQ$ intersect in a point that lies on $k$.
