→The Duel
|
Adolin attacks, trying to minimize any attempt they have to assess and respond. He does alright for a while but eventually becomes overwhelmed. When he attempts to yield the shardbearers stop him and Highjudge Istow doesn’t, or chooses not to, hear him. Adolin realizes that if he leaves the duel alive he’d be doing so as a cripple. Renarin joins the duel with just his shardblade and Adolin tries to convince him to leave but Renarin refuses. Relis tells him that so long as Adolin does not surrender or make his cousin end the duel Abrobadar will not hurt Renarin but if Adolin does attempt any of those things Renarin will die. {{book ref|wor|56}}
Kaladin joins the duel as well, keeping the duel still at a disadvantage. He gets to Adolin and the two form a plan: Kaladin will keep one distracted and keep an eye on Renarin if he can while Adolin takes on the other two. Adolin tells him that they might use Renarin as leverage against them so they need to be prepared for it. Two-on-one actually seems to be an even match for Adolin. Adolin manages to break Elit’s breastplate, incapacitating him, and Kaladin forces him to surrender. When Elit surrenders Abrobadar abandons Renarin and joins Relis and Jakamav in fighting Adolin. When Kaladin runs to help Relis and Jakamav abandon Adolin to take out Kaladin. When they do so Adolin uses the opportunity to defeat Abrobadar and then jumps on Jakamav from behind and proceeds to wrestle him. His plate locks and they both tumble to the ground. {{book ref|wor|57}}
Relis goes to attack Renarin and Kaladin manages to stop his blade. Relis, hearing the screams of his shardblade when Kaladin touches the blade, runs screaming from the arena, thus abandoning the duel. This leaves only Jakamav, who Adolin is pinned beneath, restraining him. Kaladin puts his knife to Jakamav and forces him to surrender. Adolin makes Kaladin help him out of his Shardplate. When Elhokar offers the King’s Boon, Adolin requests The Right of Challenge against Sadeas. Before Elhokar can offer it Kaladin interrupts by requesting The Right of Challenge against Amaram.{{book ref|wor|57}} They are unable to pin down the duel and Sadeas responds that he will answer the challenge in a year’s time, which is too late for House Kholin.{{book ref|wor|58}}
