He began to read The Way of Kings, a book that his brother was fond of and began to adhere to the [[Alethi Codes of War]] that his brother attempted to make him follow.

Had Dalinar been following the first Code, "Readiness", then he would have been sober enough to aid his brother against the assassin.

 

Dalinar's adoption of the Codes caused the other Highprinces to underestimate him, as he no longer possessed the thirst for battle that made him one of the most feared generals in Alethkar.

Despite sporadic heroic acts such as saving Elhokar's life from a [[chasmfiend]], Dalinar began to lose his influence over the conquered Highprinces, as rumors of his fits during highstorms circulated.

 

This involved the girth strap on his saddle being cut so that he would fall from his horse in battle, and weakened gemstones being placed in Elhokar's Shardplate so that the armor would easily crack and break.

When Dalinar failed to uncover anything of use, Elhokar named Highprince [[Sadeas]] the [[Highprince of Information]], and requested him to investigate.

The King admitted cutting the girth strap but maintained that he had nothing to do with the weakened gemstones.

 

However the King would not grant him this title unless Dalinar could prove that it was possible for the Highprinces to productively work together.

One by one the Highprinces rejected Dalinar's pleas that they join forces, until Dalinar and Highprince Sadeas became friends and they decided to try working together.

Dalinar was rescued by [[Kaladin]] and the other members [[Bridge Four]], but not before he had his armies severely weakened and almost died at the hands of a Parshendi Shardbearer.

 

This loss of the Thrill during battle caused Dalinar to question why he is fighting and whether the alternative methods of settling the Alethi dispute with the Parshendi could yield better results.

The Highprinces viewed Dalinar's wish for a more peaceful existence as a sign of weakness rather than wisdom, and this prompted him to talk to the King about his beliefs.

When Dalinar explained to the King that he is not afraid of battle, but would prefer to approach it in a different manner, Elhokar listened to him for the first time, and Dalinar finally felt that he was making progress.

 

When Dalinar began to make important decisions based on the visions his son Adolin questioned the wisdom in trusting dreams.

Dalinar expressed his belief that the visions are true and Adolin questioned his father's sanity.

Navani concluded that the gibberish that Dalinar spoke during the fits is actually [[Dawnchant]], a now (apparently) dead language, and therefore that the visions are real.

 

When Sadeas refused to sell the Bridge Four bridgemen, Dalinar offered his "priceless" Shardblade in exchange for all of Sadeas' bridgemen.

He appointed Kaladin as the Captain of all of the bridgemen, who would be trained as recruits to replenish Dalinar's armies.

Dalinar also decided to give his son Renarin Kholin his Shardplate, fully relinquishing his Shards to fulfill his promises to those around him and maintaining his honor.

 

Dalinar's misinterpretations of the visions are then explained, and the last chapter concerning Dalinar in The Way of Kings ended with the Almighty admitting that he is dead and that [[Odium]] has killed him.
