==Plot Summary==
Two days after Sadeas is found dead, the [[Everstorm]] comes again. [[Dalinar]] is pacing restlessly through his chambers. He walks onto his balcony and feels an inner chill. He asks if this is caused by the [[Stormfather]], but he denies it, stating that the storm is unnatural and unprecedented. When the Everstorm arrives, Dalinar forces himself to watch it as it encloses the [[Urithiru]] plateau. The storm is unnaturally quiet. So quiet, he can hear [[Navani]] slipping up behind him. Dalinar notices she has her safehand exposed. He asks whether there is any word from the west. They found out that the storm is slower than a [[Highstorm]] and doesn’t recharge spheres. Navani thinks the other monarchs must listen to them now, but Dalinar is
Several hours later, Dalinar rides an elevator to the top of the tower in the night. [[Adolin]], [[Renarin]], [[Shallan]] and a few guards are with him. The others leave him alone to give him some space to be nervous. He feels the Stormfather rumbling and tells him he was surprised the spren agreed to marry them. The Stormfather replies that he respects all oaths. When the lift reaches the top floor, the guards open the door and Dalinar walks to the roof. They had set up braziers for warmth and torches for light. Dalinar doesn’t know what to think about the fact that no one had questioned him when he announced he was going to marry Navani in the middle of the night on the roof. He seeks out Navani and finds her in a glorious red wedding gown. She is standing next to Elhokar. They also invited some others and even [[Kadash]] was standing in the back. Dalinar asks where Navani got the gown, then talks to Elhokar. He is afraid that this will further muddy his relationship with the king and apologizes. Elhokar gives them a cool blessing and then walks to one of the braziers for warmth. The Stormfather appears, his face stretching between horizons, and he addresses Dalinar. The spren’s attention then shifts to Navani. She swears an oath to Dalinar.
