At the start of the [[Siege of Kholinar]], their commander died when trying to quell the riots, while their highborn patron went to speak with Queen [[Aesudan]] in the [[Kholinar palace]], never to be seen again. When the [[Cult of Moments]] attempted to storm one of the gates, [[Azure]] stepped up and took charge. Afterwards, she became the Wall Guard's new Highmarshal, although her men pretended that she was a man to circumvent their [[Vorin]] sensibilities.{{book ref|sa3|70}}
Azure rallied the Wall Guard and led them to seize the city's emerald reserves, as well as to attack one of the city's monasteries to acquire a [[Soulcaster]].{{book ref|sa3|73}}{{book ref|sa3|77}} She cut out a chamber underneath the city and lined it with [[aluminium]] to prevent the [[voidspren]] from detecting the work done there, then placed [[Ithi]] and her sister there to Soulcast rock into grain.{{book ref|sa3|81}} By the time [[Kaladin]] and his team arrive in [[Kholinar]], the sisters are Kholinar's only remaining food source.{{book ref|sa3|77}}
At that time, the Wall Guard is actively recruiting any [[lighteyes]] who can wield a weapon, regardless of whether they're deserters or even criminals, using free meals as an incentive to join.{{book ref|sa3|69}} When they attempt to recruit Kaladin, he agrees, hoping to learn where the city's food comes from.{{book ref|sa3|73}} He eventually reveals himself to them as a [[Shardbearer]] and informs them about king [[Elhokar]]'s presence in the city, then rallies them to join his group in an assault on the Kholinar Palace.{{book ref|sa3|79}}{{book ref|sa3|82}}
