One day, she, Kaladin, and [[Tien]] were out hunting [[lurg]]s when they noticed a group of boys congregating idly instead of worming the [[lavis]] polyps. Laral led Kaladin down to the others and thrust him into what was a very confusing confrontation for him, before returning home after [[Jost]] beat Kaladin with his quarterstaff. Her father died that day while he was tended to by [[Lirin]].{{book ref|twok|16}} She inherited the rest of Wistiow's wealth and was given a dowry by Highprince [[Sadeas]] in lieu of the authority over Hearthstone and her father's old property.{{book ref|sa1|37}}
