Venli organizes Leshwi's servants to serve her on the spire. Timbre encourages her to go towards the Second Ideal. Venli introduces Shumin as a new servant, and she is accepted after facing the heights. Dul leads in Yokska, a human woman tailor, to design clothing for Leshwi. Leshwi sends her to teach artform singers instead, stating she is already being doubted as being too soft to humans. Venli then discusses running away from the Fused with Shumin, Dul, and Mazish. Shumin, who has newly joined, expresses an over eagerness. Venli reveals her ability to peek into Shadesmar but pretends it is a Regal ability, to Timbre's disapproval. They scramble and pretend nothing is happening when Leshwi comes to gather them and tell them something is happening that will change the war.

He still tries to maintain the strong façade, but collapses and thinks about Moash as soon as he enters his chambers. Syl fetches Adolin and he arrives to pull Kaladin out for a drink. They go to Jez's Duty winehouse, where Adolin has frequented and blended in well. Kaladin chats with Veil and Radiant about the assassination of Ialai and Shallan's personas. They talk about finding a new relationship for Kaladin, who is reluctant. Kaladin talked with Adolin about his battle shock and Shallan's mental stability. Rock tells Kaladin about his departure to his homeland to face the trials for lifting the bow.

The ''Fourth Bridge'' is approaching the Shattered Plains, so Kaladin operates the Oathgate to take himself there, then Lashes himself into the sky, landing on the ship. An hour later, he leads his parents up to the sixth floor to show them the neighborhood that has been arranged for the former Hearthstone residents. Syl, Hesina, and Lirin banter in the hallways before they reach the rooms. Kaladin shows them around the area, assuming that Lirin disapproves of the arrangements because of his silence. Syl excitedly leads the group to the rooms they have prepared for Kaladin's family and gives them a tour of a sitting room with a full bookshelf, Oroden's room, and a fully stocked surgery. Lirin finally admits that he thinks his kind of medical care is obsolete now, but Kaladin is able to explain to him that it isn't. At Syl's prompting, Kaladin tells his overjoyed parents that he has retired from battle and wants to be a surgeon with his father.

Kaladin binds Adin's ankle, telling his father to bring him back after a week of staying off it so he can judge its progress. Hawin leads Mil in next, then leaves the room; forgetting that she is gone, Kaladin asks her to read the list of "migraine prodromes." Syl instead finds the right page and begins reading the list to Kaladin while he chats with Mil. After sending Mil away, Kaladin and Syl discuss further uses for their powers that don't have to do with fighting. Kaladin notices that Syl is acting more somber than usual. Walking out to the balcony, Kaladin is spotted by a group of Windrunners, and they salute him before flying down to the Oathgates. He treats patients for the rest of the day, taking special note of Cressa's request to find her uncle. Going to ask Lirin about the man, Kaladin instead encounters Teft speaking with Hesina. Knowing that Teft had been mobilized with the rest of Bridge Four, Kaladin asks why he is still there. When Teft explains that he has gotten approval from Dalinar to step down from active duty, Kaladin tries to tell him to go back. Quickly realizing that Teft is dead set on his decision, Kaladin thanks him for sticking with him and tells him about their search for Noril.

Navani and her scribes reach the map room and find officers there, including a darkeyed Battalionlord named Teofil. They discuss strategy and decide that the best thing they can do is to try to reverse what has happened by getting to the basement. Navani communicates with the Sibling through a garnet vein in the wall. She learns that the Sibling was asleep until they felt a Bondsmith in the tower but has subsequently stayed hidden. The Sibling recognizes Raboniel, calling her the Lady of Pains, and knows that she intends to go farther than just reversing the suppression abilities of the tower, that she wants to change who they are. The Sibling agrees to help Navani prevent that from happening and tells her to gather Stormlight.

Kaladin is in the clinic, where a messenger woman tells them that Navani has surrendered, so they are to live under singer law and not resist. Lirin says that it wasn't so bad before, and it won't be so bad now. Kaladin is frustrated at his response and how they have to live under the rule of the enemy. Hesina and Laral go to check on the people, and Kaladin and his father continue to argue about resisting on the way to their rooms. A little later, Syl alerts them to a search party that is nearing, and Kaladin hides. The soldiers enter and say that they are to take the Radiants into custody. Kaladin overhears and cannot bear the thought of them taking Teft. He emerges to find a Regal and a regular soldier, with the soldier carrying Teft. Kaladin pushes his father into another room as he tells them to leave Teft. The Regal refuses, and they fight brutally, with Kaladin leaving the Fused to bleed out. Kaladin tells the other soldier to leave and then checks on his father, who is in shock. Kaladin says that they all need to go into hiding, and Lirin, furious, refuses. He cannot believe that Kaladin murdered someone in his clinic, his home. He tells Kaladin to leave and that he will stay, despairing because he believes his son has become a monster. Kaladin grabs Teft and leaves.

Vyre is in Kholinar, throwing his Honorblade and trying to get it to respond to him the way he saw Adolin’s blade respond to him on a battlefield. Khen, a singer, talks to Vyre and says that they're leaving because this is not what they want to do. He tells Vyre that though he claims he is not burdened, his obsession with Kaladin suggests otherwise. As Vyre goes to haul some rocks from a quarry, he is taken by a vision with Odium. Odium says that Vyre is becoming something unexpected, and he also orders him to help operate the Oathgates to bring forces to Urithiru. Odium says he is worried about the effect that Kaladin has on him, and asks for Vyre's help to defeat him. Vyre says that Kaladin can't be killed, and when Odium says that he would claim Kaladin as he did Vyre, Vyre thinks to himself that he would rather Kaladin be dead. Odium asks how to hurt Kaladin, and Vyre says that he needs to be isolated from his friends and made to fear. Odium says that he lacks the needed Connection to Kaladin in order to influence him and show him visions; since Vyre has such a Connection to him, they plan on using his dreams to bring Kaladin visions.

Lift has made a home of sorts in the labyrinthine tunnels that make up the ceilings and walls of Urithiru. She continues to steal food, though primarily in the form of baskets deliberately left for her. She continues to grow, which makes her angry. She talks with Wyndle, who confirms that she saw Cultivation, not the Nightwatcher. Lift says that she had specifically asked not to change. She wanted to stay her mother's little girl and is heartbroken by the thought that her mother would not recognize her because she has grown. Wyndle wraps around her to comfort her, but then suddenly realizes that something has happened to the tower. Lift realizes her powers are gone, and they watch a red [[aviar|chicken]] fight a green one. The red one is defeated, and Lift goes to it and tries to heal it but can't, feeling resistance. She takes it with her, goes inside to a safe place, and tries again. Taking extra effort, she finally pushes through the resistance and manages to heal it. Her "awesomeness", however, is not working at all. The chicken leads her away, and they hear battling in the tower. Eventually, the chicken leads them to a corpse of an old Alethi man in robes who has been killed by a knife and appears to be robbed, missing rings. Mraize, with the green chicken on his soldier, arrives and says that he has always wanted an excuse to hunt her. Lift takes the red chicken and runs.

Taravangian is with his armies, waiting for Odium to give him the signal to betray Dalinar's armies. He is having a dumb day, and as he wishes that he were smart, he realizes that smart Taravangian had failed. He considers that, contrary to what he had thought, the curse wasn't that he wasn't smart on some days, but instead that he could not be both smart and compassionate at the same time. He gets out some of the sheets from the Diagram and wonders why the Diagram cannot see Renarin Kholin.

They realize that they are trapped, and Syl notices a faint light coming from a vein in the stone, which they follow to a gemstone embedded in the wall. Kaladin infuses it, and it reveals a door to a hidden staircase. He takes the stairs to the eleventh floor and finds a dark room well away from the search parties, hidden behind another door fabrial. He collapses into sleep.

Dalinar and the Mink are in a flying platform overseeing the battle between the Alethi and the Vedens. The Vedens are accompanied by some Fused and Skybreakers. A scribe comes with news from Urithiru. The report says that those at the tower accidentally deployed a device that interferes with both Radiant powers and the Oathgates, and that they were only able to deliver this message by hiking out of range. Dalinar and the Mink both suspect that that this is intentionally caused by Taravangian as a way to isolate them during his betrayal, though they both believe that there is more to the matter.

Kaladin breaks into one of the laundry rooms in the tower by accessing a balcony, and Syl goes to see where they can find spanreeds. She finds a spanreed hub and leads Kaladin there, pretending to be a voidspren to draw guards away. Kaladin finds a ventilation shaft that he can use to get above the room while avoiding detection. He does, and then uses adhesion to pull up a group of spanreeds. Kaladin returns to the hall and finds the Sibling blinking a light at him. They tell him that the occupying force has found another node and that they need him to save them.

Kaladin follows the Sibling's light, fighting off guards as he encounters them, having to use different maneuvers than those to which he is accustomed. The Sibling leads him through a hidden passageway between two shops, and he runs into a woodworker. He comes out eventually at an open air tunnel to see Raboniel infusing the node and the Pursuer standing by. The Pursuer and Kaladin fight, and Syl stops the Pursuer from killing him by pretending to be voidspren. Eventually, the Pursuer has to take a brief break, and Kaladin has a short exchange with Raboniel. When the Pursuer returns, Kaladin tricks him into giving chase and enlists the Sibling's help to lock him in a room. Kaladin then returns to the node and destroys it with a rock. Suddenly exhausted, he is taken by surprise and Raboniel stabs him in the chest. As Kaladin realizes that he is unable to heal quickly, Raboniel manipulates him into not killing her and tells him to flee.

Kaladin wakes from nightmares. Syl tells Kaladin that she asked Dalinar to help her understand Kaladin better, and he seems to have Connected her to her past somehow. She now remembers her old knight who died, and she feels grief for him. She says that she thinks that because spren can choose, they can change, even though they say they can't. Kaladin and Syl agree that they will talk with each other when they feel like they can't change their sadness. Dabbid enters, bringing Kaladin the glove that Tomor had left for him. Kaladin goes to a crystal vein to talk with Navani at their appointed time. She tells him what the glove does, how to get to the weights in the shaft, and how to replace the rubies with those filled with Voidlight. Kaladin and Syl go to the shaft and replace the gemstones there. After Navani talks Kaladin through using the fabrial, he and Syl go to an empty hall and practice using it.

Hesina makes notes on the maps Rlain has smuggled to them in the surgery enclosure in the Radiant infirmary. Lirin comes in and discusses her parents with her until the topic causes Hesina to bring up Kaladin. Lirin stiffly defends his attitude towards his son, and the argument grows intense enough that he makes to leave the enclosure. Hesina stops him and, frustrated, tries to point out to Lirin that Kaladin is probably the person they could most want to be a soldier, since there is going to be fighting regardless. When she points to the help in the room that day, all of whom have ''shash'' glyphs painted on their foreheads, and asks him what he sees, he says that he sees fools.
