;Dalinar
Brightness [[Litima]] reads the [[The Way of Kings (in-world)|''The Way of Kings'']] to Dalinar. Renarin is with him. Listening usually comforts Dalinar, but not this time. It reminds him of Adolin's arguments. Dalinar is disturbed by the nature of his visions. Dalinar tells Renarin that Highprince [[Aladar]] refused his offer of an alliance, just as Roion did. Horns sounds outside. Dalinar enters the war room and gives [[Teleb]] an order to march. Teleb presses Dalinar on the idea of using faster bridges carried by men, and he finally relents and gives Teleb permission to recruit and train one crew. Sadeas comes to interview Dalinar's solderssoldiers. He is insistent that the investigation continue despite the imminent battle, so he follows Dalinar and his army. Dalinar and Sadeas talk about the [[Thrill]]. Usually men don't speak about it.
 
Dalinar summons [[Oathbringer (Shardblade)|Oathbringer]] and together with Adolin they attack the Parshendi. The Thrill gives him strength, focus, and power until he feels a sudden stab of powerful revulsion to the scene of death around him. He forces himself to continue to fight but feels sick. Dalinar hears a voice saying "Life before death," but nobody is near enough. He starts to fight for his men.
