Shallan swears another ideal seemingly as she is fighting to save herself and Adolin at the bottom of a bead ocean. She knows in theory she should have some control over shadesmar but it has never felt that way. Suddenly radiant materializes and stabs her attacker with a shard blade

Kaladin is getting ready to leave. Bouncing along actually being friendly with people. He meets a couple of Bridge for OGs and learns Dabbid is close to bonding a Spren.

Meanwhile shallan and Adolin are returning to U with the help of a few wind runners before they are attacked hy an especially aggressive group of heavenly ones. Normally they fight with a lot of Jonnie but not this group. They r out for blood

They learn ba ato mishram attempted to overthrow odium and was locked away in the spiritual rhealm by the herolds. This is the information that Miraze was seaking. They contact Wit with a scion and he was uncharacteristically direct as he always is with Shallan. They decide to get to her before the ghost bloods can.

Adolin is disappointed that they only got 12 Connor Soren to sign on to be wind runner bond but it’s a good start and they have made many repairs to the relationships

Noten announces that there is honor in men but that he is conflicted about bonding. He wants to refound the navy and support the effort from the cognitive realm. Potentially helping recruit.

Her mind is still splintered and some memories are repressed but she has mostly taken in Veil. The her old Is afraid of everything. He asks her how often she peers into the spiritual rhelm while sketching and although confused she realizes he is right. That she pulls on this realm for her art which is why her portraits always connect so well with people..

The death rattles were mentioned again at the top of this book. We still don’t really know what’s happening there. Likely something to do with a dirty taking over as investiture leaves the body.

Hallam is still at lasting integrity with adolin and the herald. She discovers that she had bonded two cryptics. One is a deadeyes although more physically frail than maya.

Witt was cryptic as always but he spoke as if knowing the wind was asking for help. He seemed to think that they would not meet again. Whatever taravangiaj did to him is having a physical effect on his body and mind. When they are done Kal speaks to dalinar who asks him to try therapy on Ishtar the Harold and Szeth. He also asks him to be the heir to the throne of uritheru. Syl has been more and more real recently

Kaladin feels good for the first time in a long time. Despite losing Teft he feels like he is not wrapped in darkness. He hears the wind speak to him. Wit refers to it as the old magic founded before the splintering. He speaks to wit for a while and as ever it’s a mixed bag. Wit encourages him to play the flute and actually teaches him how to play one of the rhythms of Roshar. W begs him to listen to the wind
