Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with circumcenter $O$ and circumcircle $\Omega$. Choose points $D, E$ from sides $AB, AC$, respectively, and let $\ell$ be the line passing through $A$ and perpendicular to $DE$. Let $\ell$ intersect the circumcircle of triangle $ADE$ and $\Omega$ again at points $P, Q$, respectively. Let $N$ be the intersection of $OQ$ and $BC$, $S$ be the intersection of $OP$ and $DE$, and $W$ be the orthocenter of triangle $SAO$. Prove that the points $S$, $N$, $O$, $W$ are concyclic. Proposed by Li4 and me.
