{{epigraph|All is withdrawn for me. I stand against the one who saved my life. I protect the one who killed my promises. I raise my hand. The storm responds.}}
At Sadeas' staging area Navani forces her way through the crowd after hearing rumours that Sadeas came back from battle without Dalinar. Renarin follows her. Sadeas tells Navani that the Parshendi overwhelmed Dalinar's forces, and he was forced to retreat in-order to save his own men after claiming to watch Dalinar fall to Parshendi hammers. Unwilling to believe Sadeas's account, Navani begins creates a enormous ''Thath'' glyph across the staging area stone ground in ''burn'' ink. Upon finishing the glyph, Navani releases her prayer for Justice by lighting the whole glyph which leaves a scorch mark on the stone. Shortly after the flames die
Dalinar rides at the head of his remaining force. Seething with anger, he contemplates his confrontation with Sadeas. He knows he most first protect Alethkar first despite his desire for revenge. As his force approach the warcamp, Dalinar dismisses his wounded to his camp and offers to send the Kaladin's bridgemen with them. But they are determined to see his promise to buy their freedom through. Unwilling to force them to depart Dalinar enters Sadeas' warcamp. He unexpectedly finds Renarin and Navani in Sadeas' warcamp. He embraces his son and later Navani. He tells Navani that he sees the world different now and is now unwilling to let 'lying men' control his life. Releasing Navani, he confronts Sadeas. Publicly they feign civility stating that Sadeas overestimated Dalinar situation on the battlefield. But standing close Dalinar privately ask Sadeas why. Sadeas responds by claiming his oath to protect Elhokar. Saying that Dalinar is going insane and becoming weak. He feels that these are ideas are infecting Elhokar. And in the end he just wanted Dalinar gone. In this admission guilt Dalinar realizes that acting honorable would not win Sadeas loyalty despite his best effort.
Kaladin watches the conference between Dalinar and Sadeas with the members of Bridge Four. They wait for Dalinar to fulfill his promises to free him and his men. The highprinces break their conference and Sadeas bids Dalinar's and his forces to return to their camp. Stating that their alliance was unfeasible. Dalinar then asks to buy the bridgemen. Offering sixty emerald broams for each member. But Sadeas is unwilling to sell, stating that he would not sell them for 1000 broams and tells Dalinar to leave his camp. Kaladin turns away thinking Dalinar would not be able to fulfill his promise when there are gasps of surprise. Kaladin turns to see that Dalinar had summoned his Shardblade. Dalinar then proceeds to bargain for bridgemen with his Shardblade. Buying all of the bridgemen in Sadeas camp with the blade. After agreeing with Sadeas he begins to leave telling Kaladin to gather the bridgemen and move them to his camp. Unable to believe what had just happen Kaladin ask Dalinar why. Dalinar explains that Kaladin saved him and two thousand of his men. All of who's lives are priceless. And that one priceless sward is a small price to pay especially to keep his honor.
Later on this day Dalinar goes to confront Elhokar that he cut his saddle girth himself thereby bringing suspicion on Dalinar what could have ended bad. He also tells Elhokar about what happened on the battlefield when Sadeas betrayed Dalinar. Then Dalinar forces Elhokar to proclaim him as Highprince of War.
