Later, they encountered a group of older boys, one of whom makes the claim his father won a Shardblade in the [[wastescum skirmishes]]. At [[Laral]]’s prompting, Kal contradicted him, which led to the boy, [[Jost]], challenging Kal to a quarterstaff fight. Although it was his first time holding a weapon, his natural talent for combat manifested. However, seeing that he hurt Jost, he stops himself from fighting anymore. Jost, having no similar inhibition, beats Kal to the ground. Kal then asked Jost to teach him, but the older boy declined, telling Kal to “go be what you are.” Joined by [[Tien]], Kal made his way home while contemplating what he wants to be. Once home, [[Lirin]] informed Kal that Citylord [[Wistiow]] had died and bequeathed a goblet full of spheres to Kal so he could study in [[Kharbranth]].{{book ref|sa1|16}} |

Two months later, thirteen-year-old |
Two months later, thirteen-year-old Kaladin attempted to treat a five-year-old girl named [[Miasal]] on his own. Kaladin started treating her, but it was too late as Miasal died from blood loss due to multiple severe wounds. An hour later, his father found Kaladin in front of the surgery room crying to himself. Lirin told him that he is proud of Kaladin’s work and there was nothing he could have done to stop Miasal’s death. Kaladin confessed to Lirin that he doesn’t want to be a surgeon, but Lirin just answered that he would have to learn when to care.{{book ref|sa1|20}} |
