Kaladin walked to where is mother was waiting and greeted his brother [[Oroden]], who called him "Gagadin". His mother inquired after [[Lyn]], and Syl replied she had broken up with Kal. His mother and Syl talk about him as he wouldn't talk about personal issues. He moved to the shed where his mother had hidden the Herdazian general. He found several guards but the general had sneaked off, so Kal asked the guards to pass the message with an invitation from Dalinar. Moving on, he was approached by his father who reprimanded him for not approaching covertly enough. The Windrunner cut the fight short and told his father to start packing. Knowing his parents would not leave the people of the town, he had brought an [[Fourth Bridge|airship]] to evacuate them all.{{book ref|sa4|2}}
The highmarshal escorted his father up the ramp of the ''Fourth Bridge'' and introduced him to Dalinar and Navani. After Lirin left to inspect the accommodations, Kaladin apologized for his father's behavior which had been lacking in politeness. They quickly discuss the new Fused and the need to defend the ship, and Kal gets a new charge of Stormlight from the Bondsmith. He launched into the air, but not before touching the place where the old bridge was embedded in the deck.{{book ref|sa4|3}} Kaladin organized his Windrunners while they watched the [[Heavenly Ones]] advance in the distance. He hoped [[Leshwi]] would be among them, as he looked forward to fighting her again. The Fused offered the Windrunners one-on-one combat, creating an organized battle field. Leshwi spotted the highmarshal and invited him for a duel. They fought in the sky with Leshwi leading and Kaladin pursuing. Their flight led them around the battlefield and through the town. When they got near the airship, the Fused slowed to inspect it more carefully. This gave Kaladin the opportunity to get a normal spear from Rock that he used a moment later to Lash towards the Heavenly One. With some fancy maneuvers, the Fused managed to escape, leaving Kaladin on the ground where Teft asked if he was alright. They exchanged status reports, and Kaladin ordered the Windrunners to fight defensively. A new Fused appeared and Kaladin accepted its challenge.{{book ref|sa4|5}}
Kaladin fought with the Fused, and was winning quite quickly as the enemy was using up his light rapidly. When Kaladin had him defeated, he decided to let the Fused go as killing him wouldn't help as he would be reborn soon. When the Fused dropped its spear and drifted away, Kaladin noticed a red light streaking for him and the Windrunner started evading instantly. Lyn swooped by checking in on him, and he sends her of with a message to look out for the teleporting Fused. Kaladin remarked to Syl how the others were checking in on him, and flew to Dalinar who was just getting a report from Roshone. The former citylord would accompany an Edgedancer to free prisoners form the manor's cellar. Syl made Kal admit that the man had improved despite Kal still hating him.{{book ref|sa4|5}}
