[[Lopen]] joins Bridge Four. He and [[Dabbid]] bring a water cart for the first time. Near the final assault, Kaladin sees that the Parshendi are already set up. He realizes that if they lose a couple more men, the bridge could topple and crush the entire crew. Kaladin orders Bridge Four to do the side-carry technique to prevent them from being killed.

Kaladin gains consciousness to find himself tied upside down by his ankles outside the barrack. Syl tells him that Lamaril was executed and Gaz was left in his position. Kaladin is to be judged by the Stormfather -- left out in the highstorm to see if he will survive. Syl leaves and comes back with Rock, Teft and Moash. They tell Kaladin about the disaster caused by the side carry of Bridge Four. They say that Bridge Four will remember Kaladin for what he had done, and that they will not go back to how they were before. Kaladin, just a bit light in the head after being beaten and hung up upside down, tells them he will survive. Though there is a very little chance of surviving a highstorm outside, they want to believe him. Finally Teft gives him a dun sphere as a kind of lucky charm before the three retreat to the barracks. The stormwall arrives.
