Sadeas and Dalinar planned to manipulate Highprince [[Vamah]] into using more of Elhokar's [[Soulcaster]]s, proving the two of them could work together in the best interests of the king. Dalinar told Adolin that Sadeas had sworn to protect Elhokar at any cost.{{book ref|sa1|15}}
 
Dalinar investigated the cut girth strap on the king's saddle, but at one particular king's feast, Elhokar announced that in light of the recent attempt on his life with the saddle, he iswas appointing Sadeas the [[Highprince of Information]] to investigate. This was to spite Dalinar, whowhom Elhokar believed was not taking the investigation seriously. Sadeas had learned of Dalinar's request to be [[Highprince of War]], and this was Sadeas' way of outmaneuvering his opponent.{{book ref|sa1|22}}
 
=== Highprince of Information ===
SadeasIn beganhis new position, Sadeas investigatinginvestigated the cut girth strap. Dalinar was insistent that Sadeas reveal the results of the investigation at another of Elhokar's feasts, whichthough Adolin iswas convinced Sadeas willwould use the opportunity to incriminate Dalinar and turn the other Brightlords against him. This conviction iswas punctuated by Sadeas beginning by saying to Dalinar, “You asked fordemanded this, old friend.”{{book ref|sa1|54}}
 
Even Dalinar himself was tense at Sadeas' proclamation, given for all in attendance at the king's feast to hear. SadeasHe had the strap sent to three different leather-workers who, all of whom concluded the strap had been cut – the leather was relatively new, as shown by its lack of flaking and cracking, and the tear too even. To answer when it was cut, Sadeas interviewed many on the hunt and they all reported the same oddity: Dalinar and Elhokar storming off to the rock formation alone. This presented a problem, a problem that Sadeas discovered in the king's Plate: eight of the ten sapphires used to infuse the king's plate had been damaged. When Adolin (who still thought Sadeas suspected Dalinar) protested, Sadeas noted how highly improbable this would be, since a simple fall from horseback wearing full Plate would not cause sufficient strain; even after a battle, only two or three sapphires usually needed replacing. Someone, therefore, must have sabotaged the Plate.{{book ref|sa1|54}}
 
Next, Sadeas brought out one of the grooms in the king's employ, asking him to repeat what he told Sadeas in private. The [[Fin|groom]] confirmed the saddle had been checked over in Dalinar's camp, but also noted that the horse was wearing a different saddle on the way to Dalinar's camp fromafter the kinggroom had himself outfitted the horse with Elhokar's favorite saddle. Sadeas proclaimsproclaimed that, in his personal opinion, the strap had been cut in Dalinar's camp to cast suspicion on Dalinar, and that Dalinar had no hand in the plot. This shocked both Adolin and Dalinar, both on their toes waiting for Sadeas to accuse Dalinar. Despite their rivalry, Sadeas did not want to claim a victory so easily.{{book ref|sa1|54}}

=== Betrayal ===
Right after being vindicated, Dalinar proposed that Sadeas and he work together in capturing the [[Tower (Roshar)|Tower]], a distant plateau near the Parshendi side of the Plains on which the Alethi have never won a gemheart. Dalinar suggested combining forces, to which Sadeas agreed only after they can agreeagreed on the division of spoils, particularly any Blades which maymight be won.{{book ref|sa1|54}}
 
As both men approached the Tower they could see the Parshendi had not yet extracted the gemheart from the chrysalis. Sadeas wanted to attack the Tower together, all forty bridges in a single wave.{{book ref|sa1|65}} Dalinar refused, citing the Codes again and saying he willwould attack only after Sadeas hashad made a landing point for Dalinar's bridge crews, citing the Codes again.
 
The plan worked well for a time. Sadeas managed to get his forces across the bridges and onto the Tower, carving out a landing platform for Dalinar to follow. Both forces were separated by the Parshendi, Sadeas to the west, Dalinar on the eastern edge, fighting inward. When another Parshendi force appeared behind Dalinar, Sadeas retreated to the northern plateau, pulling the eight bridge crews he'd leant to the Kholinar army with him and abandoning Dalinar Kholin.
