==== Surgeon's Assistant ====

 

After the official announcement of Kaladin's retirement, Syl went with Kaladin to the sparring grounds looking for [[Zahel]]. They tracked him to the edge of the plateau, where he was hanging up laundry. Zahel wanted Kaladin to fight him, so Syl became a sword with dulled edges. She helped him as best she could, but they still lost; afterwards, she flew around the area as Kaladin spoke with Zahel.{{book ref|sa4|15}} The day the ''Fourth Bridge'' arrived at the Shattered Plains, Kaladin and Syl went to meet it. They gave his parents a tour of the rooms they had spent the past week preparing for them, Syl enjoying Lirin and Hesina's banter. She excitedly showed them the different rooms and prompted Kaladin to tell Lirin that he had retired from active duty and hoped to help his father in his new clinic.{{book ref|sa4|18}}

The day of one of the following [[highstorm]]s, Syl excitedly flew around Urithiru. She watched [[Cord]] cook for a while, then went to check on the sleeping Kaladin. The storm arrived, so she soared back outside and enjoyed the winds. The Stormfather, seeing that Syl had a strong desire to ask him something, spoke with her; she asked him to help her understand Kaladin's depression, but he told her that while he had the power to do what she wanted, he didn't have the ability. She sought out Dalinar next, and he helped her see that by thinking about the feelings that caused her to drift after [[Relador]]'s death she might already be able to understand Kaladin's "dark brain."{{book ref|sa4|i|1}}

 

 

The day before the embassy to the [[honorspren]] left, Syl went to speak with [[Adolin]]. She told him of her fears for their mission, warning him to be disappointed.{{book ref|sa4|22}} The next day, Adolin went to say goodbye to Kaladin before leaving. Syl showed up, telling Adolin that the position had been good for Kal. She gave Adolin some last minute tips on honorspren and their ideas of morality before he left.{{book ref|sa4|21}}

A few days later, Syl flew into Jez's Duty just ahead of [[Rlain]]. She sat on Kaladin's shoulder while they talked about war, their search for [[Dabbid]], and Kaladin's new group therapy sessions. She was pleased when Kaladin admitted that his work with the others with mental illness was helping him and agreed to attend a group session himself.{{book ref|sa4|38}} As [[Raboniel]] and her strike team began corrupting the crystal pillar far away in the basement, Syl suddenly found herself separated from Kaladin. It took her the duration of Kaladin's climb up to Lirin's clinic until she found a way to pull herself back to Kaladin with his help. She could no longer become a Blade, and when she tried to go to Navani to report on the invasion, she could only go a little ways from Kaladin before she began losing herself. She brought him news that Navani knew about what was going on and was sending out messengers, but there were more and more enemy forces arriving all the time through the Oathgates.{{book ref|sa4|39}}

 

Syl accompanied Kaladin as he kept himself busy distributing supplies to the former Hearthstone residents in the wake of the failure of most of the tower's [[fabrial]]s. She warned him that she kept seeing [[Voidspren]] about the tower, then started acting like a [[windspren]] as a [[Regal]] approached him in the hallway to avert his suspicion.{{book ref|sa4|41}} Syl led Kaladin to a balcony, where they spoke with Rlain. When Rlain explained his plan to go to the invading force, Syl became sad. Kaladin asked her what was wrong, but she abruptly put on a forced cheerful act.{{book ref|sa4|42}} Just after a [[Alili|messenger]] delivered confirmation of Navani's surrender to Lirin's clinic, Syl entered and gave a silent warning of an enemy soldier approaching. She went back to keeping watch but had to return shortly to warn of a group of soldiers methodically checking each residence; Kaladin hid, so Syl went to eavesdrop for him. Syl and Kaladin, realizing they meant to take Teft with them, had a brief exchange acknowledging the momentous decision they were about to make before entering the room and rescuing Teft, fleeing with him into the depths of Urithiru.{{book ref|sa4|43}}

As Kaladin took care of Teft with their new supplies, he finally convinced Syl to open up to him about the cause of her recent melancholy moods. She explained about remembering [[Relador]], and they discussed the best way to deal with feelings of sadness and depression. Syl practiced changing colors until they were startled by a noise at the door, which turned out to be [[Dabbid]]. Leaving him with Teft, Syl accompanied Kaladin as he went to investigate the Oathgates. She scouted for him as he climbed the outside of the tower, and when a group of scouts began packing up their supplies, she realized they must have had a functioning [[spanreed]] with them.{{book ref|sa4|55}} Knowing of Navani's desire to discover how the invading force had functioning [[fabrial]]s, Syl and Kaladin gave chase to the group. Having looked ahead, Syl brought Kaladin news of a spanreed hub and also pointed out to him that spren were more visible to everyone than usual because of the corruption in the tower. Deciding it was worth it to proceed despite the added danger of discovery, Kaladin came up with the idea of Syl pretending to be a Voidspren to fool the guards. She wrapped herself in red cloth and successfully distracted the guards while Kaladin snuck past. Approaching the spanreed room via a ventilation shaft, Kaladin snared some fabrials with a rope and relied on Syl to check that the hallway was clear before exiting the shaft. As Syl was preparing to distract the guards again in the guise of a Voidspren, however, the Sibling contacted Kaladin and asked for his help defending one of their nodes.{{book ref|sa4|58}}

|How can you tell? I don’t think he '''ever''' gets excited. Not even when I tell him I have a fun surprise for him.
