The party arrived in Shadesmar; as they had practiced this before, nobody panicked. They found themselves on a huge pillar with steps spiraling down around it to "sea" level. Adolin surveyed the group, and started a bit too long at [[Arshqqam]]'s [[mistspren]], who acted offended. Shallan pointed him to the downward ramp where the highprince found Maya. He took her hand and guided her to the others to be introduced. He had Shallan watch over her while he checked Gallant and repacked his luggage, as his Shardplate had not made the transfer. When they started moving, he talked with Shallan about his actions regarding Maya. The highprince used the rest of the hike to get to know the expedition members. He spoke with Godeke about theology and how recent events effected the various religious attitudes. Finally they reached the bottom where a barge was waiting for them and the party boarded it for the two week sailing to [[Nameless]]. When Shallan opened her trunk, Adolin noticed the looked shocked, but she told him it was just some spilled paint. He then went to brush down Gallant and noticed Maya watching him. She wanted to help, so he showed her how to, to the surprise of the nearby peakspren.{{book ref|sa4|22}}
 
During the second day of the voyage, Adolin found Shallan sketching on deck. They ate together, and had a quite conversation. After a bit, when Shallan admitted she left her homeland intending to rob Jasnah, Adolin responded with laughter. He found the whole notion ridiculous, and they exchanged a few jokes and chatted happily for a while longer.{{book ref|sa4|24}}
 
After the voyage, land was sighted by the watch to the relieve of Adolin and Gallant. Adolin decided, to send lightweavers with disguised into town first while the rest of the humans hid. He was surprised that Shallan was hungover as she could have healed using stormlight the night before. While waiting, the highprince and Godeke looked at their dwindling stormlight reserve and the plan to trade it for supplies here at the town. Adolin then went to check on Maya and he wondered if she would join hi in a new kata, not the morning ritual one. He started it and after two tries she joined and performed it perfectly. When the others returned, [[Ua'pam]] expressed surprise and asked how Adolin trained her. Not believing the prince denial that he had not done so. Adolin added that perhaps eternal was not as definitive as the spren thought,{{book ref|sa4|29}}
