|The [[ketek]], written by [[Navani Kholin|Navani]] on Lightday of {{Rosharan date|1174|1|1|1}}, on the cover of a volume of her journal{{book ref|sa2|endnote}}
}}
On {{Rosharan date|1174|1|1|1}}, a few days after the [[Battle of Narak]] and the rediscovery of [[Urithiru]], Navani began a new volume of her journal; she wrote a [[ketek]] on the cover describing the meeting of the [[Everstorm]] with a [[highstorm]]. It was written as a [[glyphpair]] in the shape of two storms crashing into one another. She discussed her grief regarding [[Jasnah]]'s apparent death and the fact that [[Torol Sadeas|Sadeas]]'s treachery distracted her from the danger of the [[singer]]s.{{epigraph ref|sa2|12}} Her descriptions of this time period were notable enough that [[Nazh]] somehow sought out and read her journal.{{book ref|sa2|endnote}}

{{epigraph|
''He had spheres on the table. Some twenty or thirty of them. He'd been showing them to his uncommon visitors—most of whom have vanished, never to be seen again.
 
There was something off about those spheres. My eyes were drawn to several distinctive ones: spheres that glowed with a distinctly alien light, almost negative. Both violet and black, somehow shining, yet feeling like they should extinguish illumination instead of promote it.

You aren’t worthy. That’s why. You claim to be a scholar, but where are your discoveries? You study light, but you are its opposite. A thing that destroys light. You spend your time wallowing in the muck of the kitchens and obsessing about whether or not some lighteyes recognizes the correct lines on a map.''{{book ref|sa4|65}}
