{{anchor|Chapter 81}}
Kaladin is in a nightmare, a violent hateful one. He is tormented by his friends who blame him for everything he was unable to do, for all the ways that he feels he has failed. He sees a warm light in the distance, and he fights to get there. He is saved by the person inside the light - Wit . Wit tells him that he is in a nightmare sent from Odium to torture him, and passes over some of Rock’s stew. Wit tells Kaladin that they’ll only have a short time together, and Kaladin says that he is close to giving up. Kaladin asks Wit for a story, and Wit excitedly obliges.
The story telling cannot be summed up in a way that would do it justice. There is a dog who wants to be a dragon and fails to do so, but he becomes so much more, and that he may not be a dragon, he is a hero. There is delicious banter between Kaladin, Wit and Design, his cryptic. And there is Wit, reminding Kaladin that life will get better and then it will get worse, and that this repeats forever - but that he can always count on being warm again. Kaladin, revived and hopeful, pushes back into the storm.
