While the bridgemen learn how to ride horses Adolin and Renarin are out exercising theirs. At one point Adolin comes over on [[Sureblood]] to flirt with [[Jenet]] and ends up getting a rock thrown at him for his trouble. Later he taunts Kaladin’s difficulties with [[Spray]], the horse he’s riding. He ends up goading Kaladin into riding [[Dreamstorm]] and calls him mad when Kaladin follows through and inevitably gets thrown from the horse’s back. He later thanks Kaladin for not telling his father that he more or less dared Kaladin to do it.{{book ref|wor|25}}
 
As part of the second phase of Dalinar’s plan Adolin arrives with a small strike force to help Jakamav and Roion’s forces on a plateau to encourage the spirit of cooperation amongst the Warcamps. The two of them climb from the second tier of the hill they’re fighting on to the top tier where the chrysalis and the rest of the Parshendi are, waiting to harvest it. Once they get to the chrysalis Adolin discovers the Parshendi have already harvested the gemheart. Adolin spots Eshonai and demands that she fight him. He is surprised when she calls him by name and asks that she be able to meet Dalinar. Fighting the Thrill Adolin tells her Dalinar would want to speak with her and Eshonai tells him she will send a messenger to give the location of the meet. When Adolin gets back he finds Renarin despondent. The bridgemen tell him that Renarin wanted to help repel the Parshendi who tried to take the bridge but when he summoned his blade he froze and simply stood there. Adolin believes this to be one of Renarin’s fits. He tries to console his brother but Renarin doesn’t want to talk. Leaving his brother Adolin organizes his troops and pays his respects to Roion and Ruthar. Afterwards he talks again with Jakamav who warns Adolin that if he keeps duelling he will end up losing his shards. He also reveals that the reason Adolin is having difficulties finding others to duel isn’t Sadeas as he suspected but [[Eranniv]], who is giving Shardbearers certain promises if they refuse Adolin so that he might have a chance to do something spectacular. Adolin then invites Jakamav out for drinking but is told being seen with him is bad for one’s reputation. As Adolin considers whether he has any true friends at all Renarin tells him he didn’t have a fit and froze because he was a coward. Adolin denies this and tells his brother he is very brave. He notices Renarin has stopped wearing his glasses and feels chilled when Renarin brings up the writing on the wall and the oncoming storm. {{book ref|wor|26}}
