The '''Battle of the Tower''' was an engagement between the [[Parshendi]] and the combined armies of the highprinces [[Dalinar]] and [[Torol Sadeas]] which occurred on the [[Tower]].{{ref|b|twok|c|65}}{{ref|b|twok|c|66}}{{ref|b|twok|c|67}}{{ref|b|twok|c|68}}
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.{{ref|b|twok|c|64}} Once there, Sadeas and Dalinar's armies attacked the Parshendi from different adjacent plateaus.{{ref|b|twok|c|65}}
