History
Dalar was a superior officer to both Tien and Kaladin in Amaram's army. He was charged with assigning newly made squads from the reserves to replace those that had been lost.[1]
Tien had been assigned to a team of deep reserves made up of messenger boys inexperienced in fighting; Dalar claimed that these reserves would never be used unless the army was in serious danger.[1]
During Amaram's battle with Brightlord Hallaw in 1172, Kaladin realizes that members of Tien's reserve team have been assigned to combat, due to a lack of new recruits. Kaladin frantically searches for Tien, and in the process he finds Dalar standing beside a tall post with a pair of triangular banners. Dalar tells Kaladin that Tien was assigned to Brightlord Sheler's company on the southeast side of the hill, and Kaladin immediately sets off to find him.[1]
