One of the thunderclasts breached the wall and made for the [[Thaylen Gemstone Reserve]], intending to secure the [[King's Drop]], a [[perfect gemstone]] that could trap Nergaoul. At the same time, Dalinar went down into the Thaylen Field to face Odium directly.{{book ref|sa3|116}} In the ensuing confrontation, Dalinar managed to open [[Honor's Perpendicularity]], providing the [[Knights Radiant]] present with much-needed [[Stormlight]].{{book ref|sa3|119}}
 
What resulted was a pitched battle between the defending forces -- mostly the Knights Radiant and Thaylen troops, later reinforced by [[House Kholin]] soldiers brought by [[General Khal]] through the Oathgate -- and Odium's soldiers, consisting of the two thunderclasts, the Amaram army and the [[Fused]]. Much of the city was ruined in the process, although the city wall was patched by [[Jasnah Kholin]] soulcasting the air in the breach into metal. Ultimately, Nergaoul was trapped in the King's Drop and the remaining Voidbringer forces withdrew.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
 
The battle once more left Thaylen City in shambles, now augmented by the corpse of one of the thunderclasts. Massive surgeon stations were set up in the Low Ward to care for the numerous wounded, and the various alliance members pitched in to aid with the rebuilding.{{book ref|sa3|121}}{{book ref|sa3|122}} However, much work remains to be done, and whether the city can be brought back to its former glory is questionable.
