| − | It has been six days since [[Dalinar|Dalinar’s]] forces arrived in [[Urithiru]]. Overwhelmed by the recent events, he revisits his vision, trying to gain information from them. This vision is the first he ever experienced, where the [[Honor|Almighty]] speaks to him in a human form while overlooking a destroyed [[Kholinar]]. Dalinar, who can now revisit the visions at will because of his bond with the [[Stormfather]], ignores the speech and studies the ruined city. He tries to discover new details he can use and eventually asks the Stormfather to transport him down. The spren objects at first, saying that it isn’t part of the vision, but then rumbles and brings Dalinar down.

He tries to discover new details he can use and eventually asks the Stormfather to transport him down. The spren objects at first, saying that it isn’t part of the vision, but then rumbles and brings Dalinar down. The Highprince reflects on the events of the past few days, of the coming of the [[Everstorm]]. He tried to warn the monarchs of [[Roshar]], but they don’t take him seriously. Admiring the majesty of his city, even in it’s destroyed state, he discerns claw marks in the walls and the windblades. His thoughts immediately go back to another vision, where he fought a [[thunderclast|stone monster]] that could have caused this destruction. Dalinar deducts that this means the Almighty thinks the human race will fall to the [[Voidbringer|Voidbringers]] and not to the Everstorm. He frets again about the situation. Where there should be [[Herald|Heralds]] leading them, he only has a few untrained [[Knight Radiant|Radiants]]. As the ground starts to tremble, announcing the end of the vision, the Stormfather wants to pull Dalinar out of the vision. Dalinar wants to stay, however, and feel the destruction. As the power rips the ground apart, he sees a figure in black [[shardplate]] with nine shadows standing in front of a golden light. Dalinar sees something terribly familiar in the figure’s eyes. |
Dalinar finds himself sitting next to [[Navani]], back in Urithiru. He asks the Stormfather what he just saw. The spren answers that it is [[Odium]]. He also tells Dalinar that the nine shadows symbolise the [[Unmade]], ancient spren of the enemy. Dalinar looks up to Navani and is struck again by her beauty. She asks worriedly what happened. He tells her he has to unite the world, but Navani starts to worry for their survival in the Tower City. Dalinar calms her, saying that they can do it, using the [[Oathgate|Oathgates]]. They have one working pair, but could theoretically make connection with nine others. The problem is that a radiant has to travel to the corresponding Oathgates and activate them first. As Navani calms down, Dalinar is reminded of why he loves her. A knock comes at the door and a nervous scout pokes her head in. She announces that a corpse has been discovered in the hallways. The corpse of Highprince [[Torol Sadeas]]. |
