Lift returns in time to save Gawx's life, performing Regrowth for the first time to heal him.{{book ref|wor|i|9}} Darkness then captures her and drags her away to kill her. However, the viziers think that Gawx has healed himself, and believe that it was a sign from the Heralds that Gawx is to be their new Prime Aquasix. They think it means that he can survive future attacks from Szeth. Gawx hurriedly pardons Lift for her crimes, and Darkness is forced to release her.
=== Time in Yeddaw ===
Lift ultimately left the Bronze Palace in Azimir and set out for [[Yeddaw]]{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=1}}. She interrupts a local guard, [[Hauka]], while she is reviewing a smuggler who is also trying to gain entry to the city. She avoids capture once being discovered in the smuggler's pile of Tallew, and then tips the cart over into the immigrant district of the city, then jumping off the ledge after it{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=3}}. She avoids death by grabbing onto Wyndle to slow her descent {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=4}}.
She then goes out in search of urchins to find a place where she can eat since she expended most of her Stormlight evading the guards {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=5}}. She met a girl who told her of the [[Tashi's Light Orphanage]], a place where she could potentially get a meal if she got on the good side of the woman who runs it {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=6}}.
When Lift arrives at the orphanage she is told to wait which upsets her. While waiting for her food, she sees a mother come by the orphanage to drop off her child as he is hurt and sick and she can no longer care for him. When [[Stump|the Stump]]comes to bring the child in, she is told by the Stump that she will be given three meals and then they will no longer feed her at the orphanage. After getting her food, she talks with an old man sitting on one of the stone benches in front of the orphanage. He tells her that the woman who runs the orphanage likes to trade spheres and that if she can find someone who would trade with her then she may let Lift stay at the orphanage{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=6}}.
After she leaves the orphanage, Lift sets out in search of the guard she met at the gate. She finds her then follows her to her home, where she sees Darkness go in after her and question her on her altercation with Lift {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=7}}. She then trails Darkness through the city, and ultimately to his base of operations within the city{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=7}}. After eating his food, she then spies on the Skybreakers and finds that Darkness has found two potential recruits in addition to Szeth. She overhears them talking about searching for her and for another person within the city who is a potential radiant{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=9}}.
After this, Lift returns to the orphanage to claim her second meal from the Stump. While she is there she runs into the boy whose mother dropped him off during her first visit to find that his condition seems to have significantly improved. The Stump seems to think this is because he was faking his injury all along to take from the orphanage {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter 10}}. She also has another conversation with the old man who frequents the orphanage's bench.
Lift then goes off in search of a place where information in the city is stored. She trades for information with a woman who points her to the [[Grand Indicium]] at the center of the city {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=11}}. She then travels to the large building to find an idea of who the other radiant in the city might be{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=12}}. She goes straight to the front of the building, telling the scribe at the desk that she is a friend of the emperor of Azir. The scribe does not believe her so Lift has the scribes contact the Aquasix in Azimir who then bade the scribes to listen to what Lift needs{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=13}}. She then has the scribes search the information for any strange events that have happened in the city recently but none of them seem pertinent so Lift begins getting frustrated. She then gets the idea that Darkness' minions likely got the same idea to track down the potential Radiant as she did and heads off in search of where in the building they might be {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=14}}
When they find the room where Darkness' lackeys are looking for information in, Lift has Wyndle follow them inside and listen for who they are targeting while she stays outside, unable to sneak past Szeth, who sits guarding the door. Wyndle did not gather much information other than the fact that the Skybreakers had found their target, so Lift follows them when they leave the room {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=15}}. She is confronted by Szeth who partially unsheathes Nightblood. When Nightblood leaves Lift unharmed, Szeth has a conversation with Lift, informing her that the other Skybreakers were in search of the old man who often sat outside the orphanage as there were rumors that he could change his appearance and was marked as a potential Lightweaver. He tells her she has no chance of catching up to them, but Lift sets out after them anyway {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=16}}.
When she reaches the orphanage, she hears a scream that makes her believe she has come too late. The Stump confronts her outside the orphanage, believing her to be the source of the scream. Lift asks for the last of her three meals to replenish her stormlight before going off to confront the Skybreakers {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=17}}.
Lift finds that instead of the old man being the one harmed, it was in fact the two Skybreakers who lay dead on the ground. The man, [[Arclo]], goes on sever tangents about philosophy before revealing that Darkness will go after the other radiant if she were to flee. Arclo then guides Lift to the conclusion that the Stump is the other radiant, leaving Lift to go back running towards the orphanage {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=18}}.
When she arrives at the orphanage, she finds that Darkness has beaten her there. The fight and he ultimately traps her with his knife until the Stump comes back down from the roof of the orphanage, allowing Lift to free herself. Darkness then stabs the Stump and leaves her to bleed out while he chases Lift. They end up on the roof, where Lift states one of the Edgedancer ideals, allowing her to change Wyndle's form into something she can use as a weapon. She is ultimately able to convince Nale that the voidbringers are back, and that he needs to stop trying to stop the radiants from forming{{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=19}}
She is able to help the Stump to heal, and explains to her some of the abilities she has, like the ability to heal herself and those around her. After which she leaves to head back to Azimir {{book ref|Edgedancer|chapter=20}}.
