:::This rattle appears to be from the perspective of Kaladin during the [[Battle of the Tower]], moments before he swears the [[Knights Radiant/Immortal Words#Ideals of the Windrunners|Second Ideal of the Windrunners]]. The "final void" is a chasm over which he is jumping. The "friends behind, friends before" are the members of Bridge Four behind him and the army of [[Dalinar Kholin]] trapped by Parshendi before him. The "feast I must drink" is Stormlight stored in the gemstones knotted into the malen Parshendi's beards. The "words I must speak" is the Second Ideal. The "old oaths" are the [[Immortal Words]].

"I raise my hand. The storm responds." refers to the fact that Kaladin's words are accepted and Syl returns to him as a Shardblade.
