(Many events are in very odd orders, and it made reference to things that should not have happened. It'll be tough, but I should be able to get it back into place.)
 
==== Preparing for the Assassin in White ====
Kaladin led a patrol through the Lighteyes' training grounds with Moash and Drehy, to guard Adolin and Renarin. Syl encouraged Kaladin to tell Dalinar about Amaram, but he refused, thinking he wouldn't be believed. After the arrival of Adolin and Renarin, Kaladin confirmed their safety. He talked with [[Zahel]], an ex-soldier ardent, but was left alone soon after Zahel was called by the other ardents. Kaladin asked Syl if she found Zahel weird, and she replied saying all humans other than Rock seemed weird.{{book ref|sa2|16}} Later, Kaladin watched Zahel train Renarin. Zahel was having Renarin jump off the roof of the grounds to practice being comfortable with Shardplate's strength. Kaladin mocked Renarin's clumsiness, but Zahel countered, saying Renarin had a good attitude about it. Zahel then offered Kaladin the chance to train under him, but Kaladin declined. Kaladin, who wanted to test his abilities, participated in a mock duel with Zahel, who used a blunted Shardblade. Kaladin lost, but Zahel believed Kaladin could have given someone enough time to escape in a real fight. Adolin, who had been practicing further away, insulted Kaladin, which enraged him. Kaladin charged at Adolin, but was quickly defeated, as Adolin was wearing Shardplate, and Kaladin only had his spear. Zahel yelled at the prince for his carelessness. Kaladin used Stormlight to heal himself, and ran at Adolin again, only to lose his strength and collapse. Zahel commended Kaladin for his quick thinking, but claimed it would not be enough against a Shardbearer. Kaladin asked Syl why his energy suddenly dissapeared, and she responded, saying he was not protecting anyone while attacking Adolin.{{book ref|sa2|18}}
 
During each highstorm, Kaladin gathered all those who were under his protection in one location to make it easier to keep them safe. However, he blamed himself when the countdown to the [[Everstorm]] continued to appear. After a particular highstorm, King [[Elhokar]] was nearly killed after the railing of the balcony he was standing on broke free. Kaladin and [[Dalinar]] concluded that the support was cut with a [[Shardblade]] and that it was an assassination attempt.{{book Kaladinref|sa2|22}}{{book later confronted Moash as he was the only one on the balcony after the storm.

Later, Kaladin approached Dalinar and told him about Amaram's betrayal and Kaladin's branding. Dalinar was doubtful, believing Amaram to be an honorable man, but agreed to look into it. This angered Kaladin, leaving him unsatisfied with Dalinar’s promise. Kaladin figured he'd take matters into his own hands, but Syl countered, saying Kaladin was not a [[Skybreaker]] and was worrying her.{{book ref|sa2|22}}
 
Soon after, Dalinar requested that Kaladin and his men learn how to ride horses, as they might be useful in the future. The groom thought it was absurd for darkeyes to learn horseback riding, but she taught them anyways. Kaladin was hesitant to learn at first, but he did so anyway, at the wishes of Dalinar. At first, he rode an old, mellow horse named Spray, until Adolin came by and taunted him for not riding a fast horse. He jokingly told Kaladin he should ride [[Dreamstorm]], a wild and violent horse. Kaladin decided to do so, and mounted the horse. As it bucked him wildly, he was forced to lash himself to the sadlesaddle using Adhesion. He was whipped around, until he finally ran out of Stormlight, flinging several feet in the air and landing across the stable.

The next highstorm, Kaladin had a dream wherein he spoke towhich the Stormfather visited him. The Stormfather said that Kaladin would soon betray andSyl, killthereby Sylkilling her.

Moash continued to be involved with the plot to kill Elhokar. Kaladin ordered him to cease involvement with the conspiracy, but he wished that their arguments were less persuasive. Moash agreed to stop meeting with them.
 
Kaladin guarded Adolin while he met with Shallan. Adolin objected he do so, but Kaladin refused to leave him by himself. He met up with Wit, who informed Kaladin that he was aware of his new Surgebinding powers. Kaladin was shocked and angry with Wit, which he often was these days. Wit left when they were not looking, convincing a bystander to take his place driving the wagon.
