The '''Battle of Thaylen Field''' is one of the first major engagements in the [[True Desolation]]. It's fought between the human armies, led by [[Dalinar Kholin]], and the [[Voidbringer]]s, mainly [[Fused]], under direct command of [[Odium]].{{book ref|sa3|115}}
 
== History ==
Several thousand [[Singer]]s arrived at the shores of [[Thaylen City]] under the protection of an [[Everstorm]] spawned by [[Odium]] in order to mask their invasion.{{book ref|sa3|115}} Due to the perception that sailing during a storm is impossible, the human defenders of the city are caught unaware. Furthermore, because of the timely manipulation of [[Taravangian]]{{book ref|sa3|111}}, the Thaylen people and a portion of Sadeas' Alethi army, under [[Meridas Amaram]], are the only fighting forces left in the city. The Everstorm covering the advance of the enemy stalls over the city instead of continuing on{{book ref|sa3|115}}, something never seen before.
 
=== Preparations ===
The souls of approximately 10,000 enemy spren gather outside the [[Thaylen City]] [[Oathgate]] in [[Shadesmar]].{{book ref|sa3|112}} Due to the stalled Everstorm, the Voidbringer souls are able to pass into the [[Physical Realm]]; among them were [[Fused]], ancients who didn't have bodies. This allowed some of them to inhabit the stone in the ground, ripping themselves free to become [[Thunderclast]]s. In addition, clad in a body made of golden carapace and clutching a regal scepter, Odium himself stepped onto the shore to personally lead the battle.{{book ref|sa3|115}}
Several thousand [[Singer]]s arrived at the shores of [[Thaylen City]] under the protection of an [[Everstorm]], spawned by [[Odium]] in order to mask their invasion and hasten their ships.{{book ref|sa3|115}} Due to the perception thatAs sailing during a storm iswas considered impossible, the human defenders of the city arewere caught unaware.; Furthermorefurthermore, becausedue of the timely manipulation ofto [[Taravangian]]'s manipulations,{{book ref|sa3|111}} much of the city's defense force had departed it shortly before, leaving only the [[Thaylen people]]s and a portion of Sadeas' Alethi army, under [[Meridas Amaram]], are the only fighting forces left in the city.

TheAt the same time, the souls of approximately 10,000ten enemythousand spren[[singer]]s gathergathered outside the [[Thaylen City]] [[Oathgate]] in [[Shadesmar]].{{book ref|sa3|112}} Due to the stalled Everstorm, the Voidbringer souls arewere able to pass into the [[Physical Realm]]; among them were [[Fused]], ancientswith whotwo didn'tgoing have bodies.

In addition, clad in a body made of golden carapace and clutching a regal scepter, Odium himself stepped onto the shore to personally lead the battle.{{book ref|sa3|115}}
Even with such might backing them, some of the [[Fused]] expressed doubt over their chances of victory. The Thunderclasts were a powerful weapon, but the army of recently freed Parshmen had little training, had never experienced true battle before and many did not want to fight at all.{{book ref|sa3|115}} Amaram's forces had taken up the defense of the city and the seasoned veterans of the [[Shattered Plains]] demonstrated their combat readiness with their maneuvering. Although faced with horrors, the battle was believed to be winnable or even favorable to the humans. The Ancient Singers did not believe their barely trained forces could stand against the battle-hardened humans and that their army would ultimately break. Odium, however, explained that he had not brought the Singers to fight, but to watch his true army fight.
 
Even with such might backing them, some of the [[Fused]] expressed doubt over their chances of victory, largely due to the inexperience of their army of freed [[Parshmen]], many of whom did not want to fight at all.{{book ref|sa3|115}} With Amaram's forces being veterans of the [[Shattered Plains]] campaings, the battle was believed to be winnable or even favorable to the humans. Odium, however, had different plans.
In the form of blood red mist, occasionally manifesting into images of combat, the [[Unmade]] [[Nergaoul]] took to the battlefield and filled Sadeas' troops with the [[Thrill]], imbuing them with bloodlust and the urge to fight above all else. It was then that the voidspren that had come through the Oathgate into the physical realm seized new hosts. Odium had figured out a way in which he could bond voidspren to humans, something that had never happened in previous desolations. The Alethi army, 10,000 men strong, turned glowing red eyes upon their own forces. Lead by Amaram, who had cut a deal with Odium, the Alethi army began to assault Thaylen City.{{book ref|sa3|115}} A massive Thunderclast breached the wall and broke apart the Thaylen gem reserve. It scattered the riches of Thaylen City in the form of dun gemstones throughout the city and onto the plain of battle. Among these gems was a large ruby called the "[[King's Drop]]"{{book ref|sa3|i|13}} {{book ref|sa3|116}}, which was of particular interest to the enemy.

Taking his copy of [[The Way of Kings]] under his arm and unwilling to bow before the enemy, [[Dalinar]] went alone to meet the enemy.{{book ref|sa3|116}} Despite the departure of the [[Azish]], [[Lift]] had snuck back to the city, unwilling to abandon Dalinar. She asks him how she can help. Though Dalinar was unsure of the particular importance of the King's Drop, he had seen how eagerly the enemy protected it. So, Dalinar orders Lift to pursue and retrieve the gem.{{book ref|sa3|117}} [[Szeth]], who hovers above the city along with [[Nale]] chooses to swear the Third Ideal of the [[Skybreaker]]s opting to put his faith in a man who will do what is right: Dalinar.

[[File:I am Unity.jpg|thumb|left|200px|<center><small>by [[Coppermind:Artists/Wanda Sonnemann|Wanda Sonnemann]]</small></center>"I am Unity."]]Odium and Dalinar meet along with several Fused including [[Venli]]. Odium explains that he had been grooming Dalinar for years and reveals that he himself is to be Odium's Champion. Dalinar falls to his knees as the Thrill and the pain of his past actions bombard him. He is broken and alone and Odium offers him an escape of that pain if he will just give in. {{book ref|sa3|118}} Dalinar instead manages to overcome the pressure and accept and bear his pain, refusing to become Odium's Champion. He rises to his feet and reaches his hands to either side. In one hand he grips the [[Cognitive Realm]], in the other the [[Spiritual Realm]]. Venli whispers to him asking "What are you?" He brings his hands together exclaiming, "I am Unity."{{book ref|sa3|119}} All three realms, physical, cognitive, and spiritual are united in an outpouring of [[gloryspren]] and [[Stormlight]], infusing every gem in the city and forming a [[Perpendicularity]] that [[Adolin]], [[Shallan]], and [[Kaladin]] use to return to the Physical Realm and join the fight.
 
At the same time, Odium ordered one of the thunderclasts, [[Yushah]], to assault the [[Thaylen Gemstone Reserve]] to deny the enemy [[King's Drop]], a [[perfect gemstone]] capable of capturing an [[Unmade]]. Yushah breached the wall and broke apart the entire building, scattering all the gemstones onto the battlefield.{{book ref|sa3|i|13}}{{book ref|sa3|116}}
Shallan, using [[Surgebinding#Illumination|Lightweaving]], creates an entire army to distract their assailants, even managing to give them substance.{{book ref|sa3|120}} Jasnah shows off her prowess with her [[Soulcasting]] abilities, and decides not to kill [[Renarin]], who is revealed to have bonded a corrupted spren, instead embracing him. Renarin, who had seen his death at Jasnah's hands as a vision, realizes that his visions are not set in stone and that there is hope for humanity.{{book ref|sa3|118}}
 
Taking his copy of ''[[The Way of Kings (in-world)|The Way of Kings]]'' under his arm and unwilling to bow before the enemy, [[Dalinar Kholin]] went alone to meet the enemy.{{book ref|sa3|116}} Despite the prior departure of the [[Azish]] forces, [[Lift]] had snuck back to the city, unwilling to abandon Dalinar.the Sheothers, asksand himwas howtasked she can help.

Amaram tries to attack Dalinar but is rebuffed by Kaladin.{{book ref|sa3|119}} He then chooses to bond [[Yelig-nar]] by swallowing a gem that the [[Unmade]] was contained in, growing grotesque carapace under his [[Shardplate]] and access to all ten [[Surge]]s.{{book ref|sa3|120}} While Kaladin handles Amaram and keeps the Fused too occupied to attack him, Dalinar makes his way into the center of the red mists that make up Nergaoul. In the sky, Szeth, with the help of Lift, has finally acquired the King's Drop, but is followed by a number of flying Fused. Unable to escape them, he and Lift devise a strategy to fool them. With the help of Shallan, they allow the Fused to recapture what they believe to be the gemstone; in reality it is merely a cut rock with one of Shallan's illusions over it.{{book ref|sa3|120}} Szeth sees Dalinar within the mists and knows he cannot withstand it. Lift takes the gemstone and enters the mists after Dalinar.
 
=== Unity ===
Adolin, with the help of his [[shardblade]] [[Mayalaran]] and Thaylen highguard [[Hrdalm]], engages a Thunderclast near the city's Oathgate.{{book ref|sa3|120}} Adolin scores several blows, managing to cut off the feet of the rock beast, but ultimately sustains too many injuries to fight effectively. Fortunately, Renarin then arrives with healing and his own blade. Adolin lends Hrdalm his shardblade and the Thaylen goes to battle the Thunderclast beside Renarin. Eventually, the two of them manage to bring down the beast, reducing it to inanimate stone. Renarin then makes for the Oathgate, only to see it guarded by a dozen flying Fused.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
Despite the powerful combatants involved on the human side, Odium's forces were winning. Odium and Dalinar met in the midsts of the battlefield, with [[Venli]] observing as Dalinar challenged Odium to the contest of champions to have a chance at saving the city. Odium agreed, then explained how he had been grooming Dalinar for years to become Odium's own champion.{{book ref|sa3|118}}
 
With this, Odium unleashed the full might of the Thrill upon Dalinar, bombarding him with pain of his past actions and promising reprive id Dalinar gives in.{{book ref|sa3|118}} Dalinar, however, refuses, accepting the responsibility instead. With this, he managed to attain the next [[Bondsmith]] ideal, declaring "I am Unity" and summoning [[Honor's Perpendicularity]].{{book ref|sa3|119}} All three realms, physical, cognitive, and spiritual were united in an outpouring of [[gloryspren]] and [[Stormlight]], infusing every gem in the city and forming a passage to [[Shadesmar]]. His allies trapped there -- [[Adolin]], [[Shallan]], and [[Kaladin]] -- use to return to the Physical Realm and join the fight. By contast, seeing Dalinar's feat, Odium fled, leaving his armies to fend for themselves.{{book ref|sa3|119}}
[[File:Thrill.png|Dalinar confronts Nergaoul, by [[Coppermind:Artists/Ashley_Coad|Ashley Coad]]|thumb|right|300px]] In [[Urithiru]] a surprise attack aimed at distracting the Alethi from sending reinforcements has been underway. [[Teft]] finally bonds an [[honorspren]] and swears his ideal, becoming a full Radiant, and uses his new powers to activate the Oathgate. In Thaylen city the light of the activated gate momentarily scatters the Fused, and 2000 Kholin troops along with [[Bridge Four]] pour from the Oathgate to join the battle with Teft at their head.{{book ref|sa3|120}} Back at the ships the Singers arrived upon, [[Venli]] finally makes a decision and bonds a [[lightspren]], which takes her previously bonded voidspren captive.{{book ref|sa3|120}} She finds that she can change her eye color at will now and can fool Odium. She remains with the Singers and begins to tell them the truth about those who came before, the [[Listener]]s.{{book ref|sa3|121}}

Lift reaches Dalinar and delivers the King's Drop, a perfect gemstone, the only vessel capable of capturing one of the Unmade. Dalinar embraces the thrill. All his years under its influence allow him to understand it like no other, and he uses this understanding to draw in and ultimately capture Nergaoul. The Thrill is sealed inside the gem, and the soldiers of Sadeas' army return to normal, either fleeing or collapsing in place. Kaladin is almost killed by Amaram after he runs out of Stormlight, but is saved by [[Rock]], who kills Amaram with two shots from a Shardbow. The Fused and Singers retreat, while Kholin forces and the [[Windrunners]] sweep the city of the last invaders. The day is won.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
=== The tide turns ===
Shallan, using [[Illumination|Lightweaving]], created an illusory army to distract the Sadeas forces, even managing to give the phantoms some substance. Meanwhile, [[Jasnah]] used the near-infinite Stormlight to annihilate the enemy forces with [[Surgebinding]], while [[Renarin]], having revealed his [[Glys|corrupted spren]], rushed to join the fight.{{book ref|sa3|119}}
 
In the center, with Dalinar no longer a possible ally, the sphere containing [[Yelig-Nar]] went to Amaram, who attacked Dalinar, only to be rebuffed by Kaladin.{{book ref|sa3|119}} Amaram then chose to bond [[Yelig-nar]] by swallowing a gem, growing grotesque carapace under his [[Shardplate]] and gaining access to all ten [[Surge]]s.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
 
With Kaladin handling all threats to Dalinar, the latter made his way into the center of the red mists that made up Nergaoul. In the sky, Szeth, with the help of Lift, had finally acquired the King's Drop, but was immediately tailed by numerous flying [[Fused]]. Unable to escape them, he and Lift devised a strategy to fool them, and, with Shallan's help, created a fake King's Drop, which they then allowed the Fused to "steal" back. With the perfect gemstone thus secured, Lift entered the mits to bring it to Dalinar.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
 
Meanwhile, Adolin, with the help of his [[shardbladeShardblade]] [[Mayalaran]] and Thaylen highguard [[Hrdalm]], engagesengaged a[[Kai-garnis]], Thunderclastthe other thunderclast, near the city's [[Oathgate]].{{book ref|sa3|120}} Though Adolin scores several blows, managingmanaged to cutseriously offwound the feet of the rock beastcreature, buthe ultimatelyeventually sustainssustained too many injuries to fight effectively.

=== Confronting the Thrill ===
[[File:Thrill.png|Dalinar confronts Nergaoul, by [[Coppermind:Artists/Ashley_Coad|Ashley Coad]]|thumb|right|300px]]
 
Over in [[Urithiru]], a surprise attack aimed at distracting the Alethi from sending reinforcements had been underway until [[Teft]] managed to speak his Third Ideal and manifest a [[Shardblade]], allowing him to open the Oathgate to Thaylen City and bring in much-needed reinforcements. There, the light of the activated gate momentarily scatters the Fused giving the new arrivals an advantage of surprise.{{book ref|sa3|120}} At the same time, back at the ships the singers had arrived upon, [[Venli]] bonded [[timbre]], becoming the first singer [[Surgebinder]].{{book ref|sa3|120}}
 
Within Nergaoul's mists, Lift reached Dalinar and delivered the King's Drop. Embracing the Thrill, Dalinar lured Nergaoul in, and used the Drop to trap him, removing him from the battlefield. With this, the soldiers of Sadeas' army returned to normal, either fleeing or collapsing in place.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
 
Outside, Kaladin's battle with Amaram was still underway. He's almost killed after he runs out of Stormlight, but is saved by [[Rock]], who killed Amaram with two shots from a Shardbow. With their last major fighter gone, [[Odium]]'s army retreated, while Kholin forces and the [[Windrunners]] swept the city of the last invaders. The day was won.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
