Dalinar convinced Sadeas to team up for a joint plateau assault. After spotting a chrysalis on the Tower Plateau Sadeas and Dalinar agreed that Sadeas' forces led into the battle and Dalinar followed with a few lent bridges from Sadeas, because Dalinar refused to use bridgemen on the initial assault, and with his own chull-drawn bridges he would have been too slow.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content Once there, Sadeas and Dalinar's armies attacked the Parshendi from different adjacent plateaus.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content
