Let acute scalene $\Delta ABC$ have circumcircle $\omega$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$, define $X$ as the other intersection of $AM$ with $\omega$. Let $E,F$ be the feet of altitudes from $B,C$ to $AC, AB$ respectively. Let $Q$ be the second intersection of the circumcircle of $\Delta AEF$ and $\omega$. Let $Y\neq X$ be a point such that $MX=MY$ and $QMXY$ is cyclic. Finally, let $S$ be a point on $BC$ such that $\angle BAS=\angle MAC.$ Prove that the quadrilaterals $BFYS$ and $CEYS$ are cyclic.
