==== Campaign in Emul ====
During the [[coalition of monarchs]]' campaign in Emul in {{rosharan date|1175|4}}, Dalinar had a crew of [[Windrunners]] fly himself, [[Szeth]], and [[Nightblood]] to Ishar's camp in an attempt to learn more about his own [[Bondsmith]] abilities. While still in the air, Dalinar noted that he already had a [[Connection]] to the Herald, allowing him to identify him on sight. Ishar accused Dalinar of being [[Odium]]'s champion, and refused his pleas for aid, though he did acknowledge that his "lies" were reasonable.{{book ref|sa4|111}}
He summoned his own [[Honorblade]], which he claimed to have received from Szeth's father before he thanked Ishar for letting him die. Ishar attacked Dalinar, easily defeating the five Windrunners. As Dalinar opened a [[perpendicularity]], Ishar approached him and created a Connection with Dalinar, meaning to steal his bond with the [[Stormfather]] as well as Dalinar's Connection to Odium, in which he sensed Odium's and Dalinar's opposition to each other.{{book ref|sa4|111}} At the last moment, Szeth used Nightblood to sever Ishar's new Connection and then collapse the perpendicularity, which Ishar had been holding open against Dalinar's will. Nightblood was then able to chip a piece from Ishar's Honorblade. Shocked by the damage to his Blade, Ishar opened his own perpendicularity, which the Stormfather was unable to sense, and fled into [[Shadesmar]] with his men. Once Ishar was gone, Dalinar heard the Herald's voice through the perpendicularity. Sounding much more sane, he informed Dalinar that he could be restored temporarily if a Radiant swore an oath near him. Ishar claimed to know a way of resetting the Oathpact, and asked Dalinar to meet him in Shinovar, before reverting to madness.{{book ref|sa4|111}}
