Kaladin leafsleaves the barracks with the first light of the day in rather good spirits, as he is followed by all twenty nine members of [[Bridge Four]]. He thinks that the last holdout [[Bisig]] might have been bullied by [[Teft]] and [[Rock]] but chooses to ignore it. Kaladin has the bridgemen do exercises formfrom his military days, stretches and jumping motion for warm up. Several carpenters and soldiers are watching and laughing at them. Kaladin notices [[Gaz]] before deciding there to be still some time before breakfast to haul the bridge.

Gaz only has half of it, one Topazmark, but Lamaril is more interested in Kaladin, noting him as a problem for Gaz. Gaz is unsettled by Bridge Four's training and wonders if Kaladin really did train in the military. Gaz and Lamaril discuss the use of BridgmenBridgemen and that Kaladin could become more dangerous. Gaz offers to Kill him, but worries about the loss of Kaladin's bribes. Lamaril tells him not to, as to not make the young Bridgeleader into a martyr. He wants Kaladin to fall on a run. Before leaving he threatens Gaz with making him a bridgeman himself. Gaz worries that if Kaladin does get killed, he, Gaz might still end up a bridgeman for not being able to pay Lamaril's bribes.
