==== Preparing for the Assassin in White ====
During the highstorms, Kaladin gathered all those who were under his protection in one location to make it easier to keep them safe. However, he blamed himself when the numbers didn’t stop. After a particular highstorm, King [[Elhokar]] was nearly killed after the balcony he was standing on broke free. Kaladin and [[Dalinar]] concluded that the support was cut with a [[Shardblade]] and that it was an assassination attempt. Kaladin later confronted Moash as he was the only one on the balcony after the storm. Moash theneventually admitted to being an accomplice and Kaladin forbade him from meeting with the assassins again.
 
Kaladin lead a patrol through the Lighteyes' training grounds with Moash and Drehy, to protect Adolin and Renarin. After sending his men to their stations, he talked with an ardent regarding the King's Blades. Syl encouraged Kaladin to tell Dalinar about Amaram, but he refused, thinking he wouldn't be believed. After the arrival of Adolin and Renarin, Kaladin confirmed their safety. He talked with [[Zahel]], an ex-soldier ardent, but was left alone after Zahel was called by the other ardents. Kaladin asked Syl if she found Zahel weird, and she replied saying all humans other than Rock seemed weird.
[[Zahel]], a swordmaster who taught Adolin and other lighteyes, tried to convince Kaladin to be trained under him so that he could learn how to fight Shardbearers. Kaladin didn’t want to, as he still associated Shardblades with the [[Helaran Davar|shardbearer]] who killed his men while he was under Amaram. Zahel then goes after Adolin, pretending to be an enemy. Kaladin fought him, but was defeated because he was not protecting anybody and his Radiant abilities not aiding him.
 
Later, Kaladin discussedapproached Dalinar and told him about Amaram's withbetrayal Dalinar,and butKaladin's branding. Dalinar doeswas nothing.doubtful, Hebelieving doesAmaram notto fullybe believean Kaladinhonorable man, but saysagreed that he willto look into it. This angered Kaladin, leaving him unsatisfied with Dalinar’s promise. Kaladin figured he'd take matters into his own hands, but Syl countered, saying Kaladin was not a [[Skybreaker]] and was worrying her.
 
Later, Dalinar requested that Kaladin and his men learn how to ride horses, as they might be useful in the future. The groom thought it was absurd for darkeyes to learn horseback riding, but she taught them anyways. Kaladin didwas not wanthesitant to ridelearn theat horsesfirst, but he doesdid asso heanyway, wasat toldthe wishes of Dalinar. At first, he rode an old, mellow horse named Spray, butuntil Adolin came by and taunted him for not riding a fast horse.

Moash continued to be involved with the plot to kill Elhokar. Kaladin ordered him to cease involvement with the conspiracy, but he wished that their arguments were less persuasive. Moash agreed to stop meeting with them.
 
Kaladin guarded Adolin while he met with Shallan,. muchAdolin toobjected Adolin’she objectiondo so, but Kaladin refused to leave him by himself. He met up with Wit, who informed Kaladin that he was aware of his new Surgebinding powers. Kaladin was shocked and angry with Wit, which he often was these days. Wit left when they were not looking, convincing a bystander to take his place driving the wagon.
