;Plot Summary
Teft and Kaladin are in a bar and are joined by Rlain. They asked him about his experience during the bridge runs when he was being targeted by his own people, and Kaladin apologizes for desecrating the bodies of the dead to create their armor. They talk about how they haven't seen Dabbid in a while, and how they would like him to join the groups that Kaladin has been forming. After prodding, Kaladin agrees to join the groups himself, something he has been avoiding. He admits to himself that the work he has been doing has been helping him put himself back together.
