: The Sibling sensed the Fused had found their node in the well of the main floor of Urithiru, and while Kaladin was kept in another nightmare, Dabbid nearly went in his place to protect the node {{book ref|sa4|70}}. Kaladin hurried to the main floor and there the Pursuer was once again waiting for him {{book ref|sa4|70}}. While fighting the Pursuer, Kaladin challenged Leshwi to a duel, knowing that a fight with her would be more honorable, and would keep the Pursuer at bay {{book ref|sa4|70}}. Kaladin, with the help of Syl, aimed himself towards the well, to avoid further injuring himself after going through a loophole to avoid a true duel with Leshwi {{book ref|sa4|70}}. Kaladin is able to swim with help from the device and destroy the node in the well, only this Sibling's corruption has gone so far that his healing is nearly gone, which was especially noticeable after Raboniel injured him again {{book ref|sa4|70}}. Kaladin went to escape the well, knowing he would be surrounded by Fused, but he and Syl were separated and the Pursuer locked him in by adding weights to the top of the well {{book ref|sa4|70}}. Kaladin escaped to the underground reservoir and attempted to get to his hidden room but was at risk of being surrounded by Singers, and escaped to the outside of the tower during a Highstorm to wait for his Stormlight to renew {{book ref|sa4|70, 71}}. While on the side of the tower, Dalinar was able to contact Kaladin through the Highstorm, and after falling unconscious Dalinar pushed him into the tower using the winds {{book ref|sa4|71}}.
: Eventually, it is revealed that Kaladin was taken back to the hidden room by Dabbid, but Kaladin fell into a coma, having his consciousness taken to Braize by Odium {{book ref|sa4|80, 85}}. During this time on Braize, Kaladin finds Wit, who created a bubble of protection to prevent Odium from discovering him for a short amount of time, and tells Kaladin the story "The Dog and the Dragon" {{book ref|sa4|80}}.

|You told me it would get worse. It will, but then it will get better. Then it will get worse again. Then better. This is life, and I will not lie by saying every day will be sunshine. But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say. That is truth. I promise you, Kaladin: You will be warm again.

Dabbid goes to ask for help from Rlain, as he believes Kaladin is dying, and Venli helps get Lift out of her prison to heal Kaladin {{book ref|sa4|83, 85}}. Lift heals both Kaladin and Teft, and they begin to develop a plan to protect the Slibling's final node {{cite}}. When they learn that the final node is in danger, exhausted, Kaladin goes to face the Pursuer once more with the remnants of Bridge Four, Lift, and Venli {{cite}}. Kaladin destroys the Pursuer's reputation, deeming him "the Defeated One" and defeats him by humiliating him {{cite}}. But, after feeling energized he discovers Teft dead by the hand of Vyre, and is rendered catatonic {{cite}}.
