→Sadeas death and aftermath
|
On the last day before the Weeping Sadeas and his wife are taking a ride, supposedly for pleasure but in fact to assuage the extent of Sebarial's warcamp's industry. He speaks with his wife about Dalinar and Elhokar. Ialai believes they should seize the opportunity to attempt a coup on the [[Pinnacle]], but Sadeas mentions it won't be necessary, and also points out the failure of their last assassin. After Highprince [[Aladar]] joins with Dalinar's forces, Sadeas is stunned, and thinks on the events for a long time, before ultimately deciding that it does not matter, as they will all die on the Shattered Plains and that they must set about deciding who will take their places as Highprinces.{{book ref|sa2|76}}

Surprisingly, [[Dalinar]]'s call to the [[Shattered Plains#Warcamps|Alethi Warcamps]] is answered by Sadeas as quickly as it is by [[Shattered Plains|Aladar warcamp]] and [[Shattered Plains|Roion warcamp]].{{book ref|sa2|88}} Sadeas personally makes his way to [[Urithiru]] with [[Ialai Sadeas|his wife]].
They are exploring the large tower when [[Adolin]] comes upon Sadeas alone. Sadeas mentions to [[Adolin]] how he has already started planning the next round of rumors against [[Dalinar|his father]], using [[Rlain|a parshman]] being in his [[Bridge Four|personal guard]] as an explanation for how he managed to have the [[Parshendi]] co-operate with him and form a ruse (the [[Battle of Narak]]). [[Adolin]]'s anger at his constant attempt at vaingloriously undermining [[Dalinar]] turns violent, and he proceeds to stab his side-knife through the [[Highprince]]'s eye. [[Adolin]] takes his [[Shardblade]] and throws it off the side of Urithiru, then proceeds to get rid of any other evidence that he had been there before proceeding to rejoin his scouting party.{{book ref|sa2|89}}
Men of bridge four find the body, and Sadeas guards immediately accuses them of the murder. Though the blood was dry confirming that the death had happened days ago, the division between both camps/kingdoms increases and many would continue to blame Dalinar for his death.
Shortly after the murder, another corpse is found. The victim is Perel; and the only connection between both murders is that they not only have the same cause of death but the wounds are identical. It is later confimed that this second kill was caused by the unmade Re-Shephir, the Midnight Mother as a copy of Sadeas muder.
While several people including [[Sebarial]] saw Sadeas death as “a problem solved”; [[Dalinar]] is very affected by the event and asks Adolin to investigate and find the assassin. [[Adolin]] on the other hand, struggles with the guilt and confesses his actions first to Shallan and later to Dalinar himself.
=== House Sadeas after his death ===
After Torol Sadeas death, [[Ialai Sadeas]] names Highmarshal [[Meridas Amaram]] regent and heir to the house title, making him Highprince Sadeas. By doing this, she confirms a division with the Kholins. This division will continue until the end of the last battle where Odium would use Sadeas troops to fight against the rest of the Alethi.
