== Prologue ==

 

Having survived the sinking of the ''[[Wind's Pleasure]]'', [[Yalb]] serves on a ship led by Captain [[Smta]]. Yalb and his crew discuss Thaylen naval traditions and the ''Wind's Pleasure'' before spotting a the abandoned ''[[First Dreams]]'' sailing over the horizon. They board and find the ship to be empty of crew and floating with no direction.

 

== Chapter 1 ==

 

[[Rysn]] sits in her office and notes how much [[Chiri-Chiri]] has grown and how sickly she appears. She also takes note of how her office and the [[Wandersail_(1174 ship)|Wandersail]] have been customized to facilitate her mobility, including the arrival of a new porter [[Nikli]]. [[Talik]] arrives, having been contacted by Rysn, to assess [[Chiri-Chiri]] and recommends that she be taken to the ancestral home of the [[larkin|larkins]] at the Aimian city [[Akinah]] - long thought to be lost. [[Rysn]] recalls that [[Navani]] had put out a call for vessels to voyage to [[Aimia]] to investigate the return of the ''[[First Dreams]]''

 

== Chapter 2 ==

 

[[Rysn]] travels to [[Urithiru]] in the company of [[Nikli]] and [[Chiri-Chiri]] to discuss terms of an expedition with [[Navani]]. She admires the fabrial lifts created by the Alethi artifabrians. They negotiate and agree to terms including: generous monetary compensation for the crew, [[Queen Fen]] providing a royal mandate to motivate the crew, two [[Windrunner|Windrunners]] ([[Lopen]] and [[Huio]]) ordered to accompany the mission, and the scribe to accompany the mission ([[Rushu]]) would be one familiar with fabrial lift technology.

 

== Chapter 4 ==

 

[[Rysn]] admires the [[Wandersail_(1174 ship)|Wandersail]] and explains the command structure since being given the ship by [[Vstim]]. Captain [[Drlwan]] curtly suggests that Rysn remain ashore for the voyage. They discuss the role of superstition and [[Passions]] among Thaylen naval crews, after finding the ship's pet [[skyeel]] dead. The crew is offered a chance to remain ashore for the duration of the expedition. Rysn confides in [[Nikli]] that she suspects the crew resents her being assigned as [[rebsk]], and they brainstorm methods to garner favor with both crew and captain.

 

== Chapter 5 ==

 

[[Wandersail_(1174 ship)|Wandersail]] begins its voyage toward [[Aimia]]. [[Rysn]] and [[Lopen]] bond over shared experience with disability. [[Rushu]] demonstrates conjoiner fabrial technology as it relates to Rysn's mobility and the group discusses [[Rushu]]'s separate mission to understand the impact of [[aluminum]] on fabrials.

 

== Chapter 6 ==

 

[[Cord]], filling in for the chef [[Nlan]] who stayed ashore, discovers that the ship's grain stores have been infested by grubs. Once again, the crew assumes that this is a bad omen and that the voyage is cursed. Using notes she took while studying under [[Vstim]], [[Rysn]] averts the crisis by directing [[Drlwan]] to dock and initiate trade with a group of [[Hexi]] Nomads. Since the [[Hexi]] are strict vegetarians (but consider grubs to be plants) they are willing to trade the bad grain for jerky made from the nomad's dead animals. [[Nikli]] recounts his success warming up to the crew, and converses with [[Rysn]] about how he ended up among the Thaylen people.

 

Separately, [[Nikli]] finds a private moment to contact the other [[Sleepless]] without revealing his true form to [[Rysn]]. He reports on the status of his efforts to dissuade the expedition. Although working to maintain the secrecy of [[Aimia]], [[Nikli]] argues that he should be allowed a last attempt to dissuade the crew, before being forced to kill everyone aboard - as happened on the ''[[First Dreams]]''.

 

 

== Chapter 8 ==

 

The crew of the Wandersail discover another bad omen - the floating corpse of a [[Santhid]] has washed over to the hull. [[Rysn]] turns the mood and wins some approval from her crew by ordering that the ship tow the corpse to shore to short and give it a proper funeral. However, the corpse disintegrates into hordelings before they have a chance.

 

== Chapter 9 ==

 

Despite not having a corpse to burn, the crew goes ashore for a bonfire and a night of rest. [[Rysn]] communicates via spanreed with [[Vstim]] who reveals [[Navani]]'s hidden agenda to find and activate the [[Oathgate]] in [[Akinah]]. The two theorize that a [[Fused]] [[Lightweaver]] may be responsible for the Santhid corpse and the other omens; [[Jasnah]] agrees by another spanreed. [[Nikli]] shares an account of the [[scouring of Aimia]], and [[Cord]] shares her past with [[Rysn]]. Building on [[Huio]]'s accidental discovery of aluminum-modified spanreeds, [[Rushu]] demonstrates how she can turn [[Rysn]]'s chair into a levitating mobility device.

 

== Chapter 10 ==

 

Back on Wandersail, [[Nikli]] attempts to frame [[Cord]] for the failed omens, but is restrained by [[Kstled]]. [[Rysn]] had found [[Nikli]] suspicious, and had [[Cord]]'s room searched previously - so that it became clear that [[Nikli]]'s evidence was fabricated. [[Nikli]] pleads for [[Rysn]] to turn back, but is removed from the ship by [[Lopen]] and [[Huio]].

 

== Chapter 11 ==

 

Wandersail breaches the storm surrounding [[Akinah]]. Rysn and Huio stay below while Lopen remains topside interacting with the crew. [[Lopen]] dives into the water to rescue [[Turlm]] and adheres [[Drlwan]]'s foot to the deck with stormlight. Right as the ship breaks through the storm, Lopen notices the large aquatic [[Sleepless#Hordelings|hordeling]] in the water.

 

== Chapter 12 ==

 

[[Rysn]] first sights [[Akinah]]. The lookouts with spyglasses report seeing greatshell corpses with gemhearts lying on the shore. Rysn and Drlwan authorize a landing party to examine the beach - followed shortly thereafter by the Windrunners and [[Rushu]] who set out toward the city ruins at the island's center. [[Cord]] reports seeing [[luckspren]] heading toward the island, and [[Chiri-Chiri]] dives overboard, leaving Rysn's side to follow them.

 

== Chapter 14 ==

 

[[Cord]] and [[Rysn]] discuss Cord's desire for Shards, and the political status of the [[Horneater Peaks]] in reference to the status of the war on [[Roshar]]. [[Cord]] acknowledges that [[Cultivation's Perpendicularity]] is going to become a major draw for forces both allied and malicious.

 

== Chapter 16 ==

 

[[Rysn]] and [[Cord]] follow a set of [[luckspren]] underwater to a cave beneath the island surface. Contained in the cave is: a set of shardplate, eight soulcasters, and a mural depicting the [[Shattering]] of [[Adonalsium]]. When Rysn examines the mural, the [[Dawnshard]] contained within it exits the mural and joins with her. Thus, Rysn becomes a Dawnshard. She begins to hear the voice of the Dawnshard in her head, as hordelings enter the cavern.

 

== Chapter 18 ==

 

The Windrunners continue to fight the large hordeling, trying to buy time for the crew to escape back to the ship. However, specialized hordelings arrive and drain the [[stormlight]] from Lopen rendering him unable to lash. [[Lopen]] falls to the ground and breaks his leg. In order to protect his cousin, Huio swears the Third Ideal and summons [[Caelinora]] as a Shardhammer.

 

== Chapter 19 ==

 

Huio takes the hordeling down with a shardspear through the head, and escapes with Lopen.
