She also takes note of how her office and the [[Wandersail_(1174 ship)|Wandersail]] have been customized to facilitate her mobility, including the arrival of a new porter [[Nikli]]. [[Talik]], with whom Rysn has been in contact regarding Chiri-Chiri, arrives to assess the [[larkin]] and recommends that she be taken to the ancestral home of the larkin at the [[Aimia]]n city [[Akinah]]--long thought to be lost. Rysn recalls that [[Navani]] had put out a call for vessels to sail to Aimia to investigate the return of the ''First Dreams''. |

Lopen and [[Rua]] fly through Urithiru to meet with a [[Reshi]] delegation, who had arrived to meet with [[Dalinar]]. [[Talik]] greets him and is immediately lashed upward to the peak of the atrium where Lopen shows him the view of mountains surrounding Urithiru. The two hold an impromptu summit in the air before returning to the ground to find [[Ral-na]] (a newly bonded [[Dustbringer]]) and [[Kaladin]], who is irritated at Lopen's lack of decorum. Kaladin assigns Lopen and Huio to Rysn's expedition, and they decide to take along [[Cord]], who can see [[spren]]. |

The two theorize that a [[Fused]] [[Illumination|Lightweaver]] may be responsible for the Santhid corpse and the other omens; [[Jasnah]] agrees by another spanreed. Nikli shares an account of the [[scouring of Aimia]], and Cord shares her past with Rysn, also explaining about her people's stories of the Sleepless. Building on Huio's accidental discovery of aluminum-modified spanreeds, Rushu demonstrates how she can turn Rysn's chair into a levitating mobility device. |

Lopen, Huio, and Rushu land on Akinah. Rushu speculates that the gemhearts on the beach are a result of an ancestral instinct in the greatshells coming to die in the same place. They and the rest of the disembarked crew begin to examine, sketch, and gather the gemhearts in order to ensure that the crew gets paid. Lopen notes how odd it is that there is no [[crem]] buildup on the beach - wondering if [[highstorm]]s do not reach this island. |

Lopen flies |
Lopen flies using Stormlight and confirms for Rushu that the layout of Akinah corresponds closely to the ancient map that she had used as a guide for their expedition. Based on that map, they are able to locate what appears to be the Oathgate. However, they begin to suspect foul play when they discover that the gemheart they took was quartz and not diamond (i.e. not an actual gemheart); and that the Oathgate mechanism they found is in significantly worse repair than the ones in other cities despite being the same age. Instead, Rushu finds a hidden chamber beneath the "city" which they enter with the aid of a smoke-creating [[Soulcaster]] given to Rushu by Navani for just such a purpose. Lopen rushes back to the boat after recognizing that they had sprung a trap. |

Contained in the cave was a set of [[Shardplate]], eight Soulcasters, and a mural depicting the [[Shattering]] of [[Adonalsium]]. When Rysn examines the mural, the [[Dawnshard]] contained within it exits the mural and joins with her. Thus, Rysn becomes a Dawnshard. She begins to hear the voice of the Dawnshard in her head, as hordelings enter the cavern. |

The revelation of the Dawnshard's bonding gives Rysn the leverage needed to turn the negotiation. The crew of the Wandersail is permitted safe return with information about Akinah in addition to the shardplate and Soulcasters found in the cavern. In return for their safety, Rysn vows to be the protector of the Dawnshard so that it is not in Akina when [[cosmere]] forces eventually come in search of it. The Sleepless agree to this plan under the condition that they be permitted to follow Rysn permanently. A two-layer cover story is created: it would be said publicly that the return of a larkin convinced the Sleepless to let the ship go; while the rulers of Roshar, particularly Navani and Queen Fen, would be told that the exchange included Sleepless remaining with Rysn as training on impersonating humanity. |
