The Stormfather imagined a place for Dalinar to discuss plans with him. The sky is deep black and the ground endless white stone. Items and even people made of smoke rise from the floor and slowly dissipate. This place represents how the Stormfather imagines cognitive ideas dying when no longer in use by cognitive beings.{{book ref|sa3|34}}

During this vision Dalinar found himself in the role of a man, [[Heb]], who lived with his wife and daughter, presumably during the advent of a Desolation in the year 337 of the Eighth Epoch. Heb and his daughter were attacked by [[Midnight Essence]]s, but managed to reach Heb's house unharmed. Two more of these beasts followed, and after Heb (Dalinar) fought them off with a metal fire poker, Heb took his wife and daughter and fled from the house. A short time later they were surrounded by Midnight Essences. When he and his family thought all was lost, two Knights Radiant arrived. One, a [[Windrunner]], immediately began to fight the beasts, while the second, a [[Stoneward]] used a [[Regrowth]] fabrial to heal Heb and his family before joining her companion in fighting the Midnight Essences. Feeling good again after the healing, Heb joined the fight, and the three of them fought off the Midnight Essences. The [[Starfalls Windrunner|male Knight Radiant]] asked Heb about his strange fighting stances and invited him to come to [[Urithiru]], where the Knights Radiant were centered, because everybody who could fight was needed.{{book ref|sa1|19}} Dalinar asks questions of the [[Starfalls Stoneward|female Knight Radiant]] as well.
This was Dalinar's twelfth vision.{{book ref|sa1|19}}
In this vision Dalinar was shown the aftermath of a Desolation. His role was as a man named [[Karm]], an adviser to a king, probably [[Nohadon]] himself. Nohadon was saddened over the vast destruction caused by a recent [[Desolation]], noting that the kingdoms of [[Tarma]] and [[Eiliz]] were likely to fall from the loss of population; Dalinar concurred, realizing he's never heard of either. The king also wavered over what to do with the [[Surgebinding|Surgebinders]], and how they could be made to act more honorably. Though this king was younger than Dalinar had imagined Nohadon to be, and refused the idea of writing a book as absurd, Dalinar was sure that he was right about him being Nohadon. The king mentioned that all of his scribes were killed after [[Yelig-nar]] broke into his chancery. Eventually this man decided to unite the people so that they could stand better against future Desolations.{{book ref|sa1|60}}
