During this charge, Kaladin overtly performed two great feats of Surgebinding: first, he drew over a hundred arrows to his shield. A few moments later, he spoke the [[Immortal Words|Second Ideal]] of the [[Windrunner]]s, progressing his path to becoming a member of the Knights Radiant and unlocking a new level of power. Having spoken the Second Ideal, Kaladin generated a wave of stormlightStormlight powerful enough to throw back an entire enemy rank of Parshendi.{{book ref|twok|67}}

Kaladin fought with amazing prowess, his natural talents enhanced to unnatural levels by stormlightStormlight. He single-handedly engaged and defeated dozens of Parshendi. Kaladin and his men held the bridge until Dalinar’s soldiers were able to fight their way to them. Kaladin organized the retreat, but neither Highprince Dalinar or Adolin were with them. Adolin was still fighting nearby, forcing the [[Cobalt Guard]] to stay on the field as well. Kaladin convinced Adolin to order a retreat while he went to retrieve Dalinar. Kaladin found Dalinar fighting with [[Eshonai]], both of whom were utilizing a full set of Shards. Fighting a Shardbearer for a second time, Kaladin rescued Dalinar and retreated with what remained of his army. While returning to the warcamps, Dalinar promised Kaladin he would ensure their safety from Sadeas.{{book ref|twok|68}}
