{{anchor|Chapter 77}}
Navani continues to try to get the Sibling to speak to her, repeatedly apologizing for her failure to realize that they had been spied on. Raboniel enters, and as they talk, Navani realizes just how old Raboniel is. She is so tired of the war and is dismissive of Navani’s suggestion of peace because their previous attempts have failed. Navani realizes that Raboniel’s desire to combine the lights is related to her desire to end the war. They discuss her research progress, including Navani's realization that Stormlight responds to sound. She learns that Raboniel can hear the tone of light, the same tone that she uses to get the light to transfer spheres. Raboniel explains that there is a rhythm as well as a tone, and that Towerlight has two rhythms that work in harmony. Navani wonders if the rhythms of Stormlight and Voidlight could harmonize, but Raboniel says that Stormlight is too orderly and Voidlight too chaotic. Navani convinces her to try, Raboniel singing the rhythm and tone of Voidlight, and with some effort, Navani doing the same for Stormlight.Their two rhythms eventually come into harmony, and both kinds of light successfully infuse the sphere. Raboniel names the light the Rhythm of War and is shocked that they did not destroy each other. Navani asks about her motivations, and Raboniel suggests that it might allow them to kill a god - like how Honor was killed. Navani realizes that Gavilar had been looking for a way to kill a god. Even more, she realizes that he had discovered the opposite to Voidlight, that that is what had been in the sphere that killed her scholars. Raboniel gets ready to leave, thanking Navani for her assistance and that she has earned her gratitude, but that she was not going to leave Urithiru.
