He is a highmarshal in service of Highprince [[Torol Sadeas]],{{book ref|sa1|10}} and has to watch over northern Alethkar while his highprince fights in the [[Vengeance Pact]] on the [[Shattered Plains]]. Because of the continuous skirmishes at Alethkar's borders he is in permanent need of new soldiers. Eventually he comes through [[Hearthstone]] for recruitment. Hearthstone's citylord [[Roshone]] -- apparently Amaram's distant cousin -- commits [[Tien]] to be a recruit, which results in [[Kaladin]] volunteering for service in order to protect Tien; though Amaram promises [[Lirin]] to stint Tien's duty to be a messenger boy.{{book ref|twok|44}} Amaram doesn't keep his promise, and Tien dies in his very first battle,{{book ref|twok|67}} leaving Kaladin in a bitter grief.

 

Years later, shortly before the four years tour of Kaladin's duty ended, an unidentified [[Veden]] Shardbearer (later revealed to be [[Helaran Davar]]) attacks Amaram during one of these border skirmishes. Kaladin fights and kills this Shardbearer, but refuses to claim his Shards and gives the the Shardplate and Shardblade to his men.{{book ref|twok|48}} Amaram, however, kills the survivors of Kaladin's squad before his eyes and take the Shardplate and Shardblade for himself. He tells Kaladin that, as a mercy, he will not kill him but brand him as slave and sell him, claiming Kaladin was a deserter.{{book ref|twok|51}}
