As Kaladin and Lezian
Lezian realizes just how visible this contest is, and how many people are watching. He sees his own legend, his own lore and reputation begin to crumble, and hums to an increasingly panicked Rhythm. As Kaladin begins walking forward, Lezian stumbles back into his own soldiers holding the perimeter. Kaladin unhooks Navani's fabrial from his belt, and goads Lezian, who charges him.{{book ref|sa4|105}} Kaladin simply presses Navani's fabrial device to Lezian's chest, and locks it on with a lashing, launching him backwards. He hits the glass window of the atrium and cracks his carapace, but is unable to heal himself as he lacks the voidlight to do so. As Kaladin stalks forward, repeatedly and powerfully commanding him to flee, Lezian, dripping blood from his wounds, loses his resolve and runs away.{{book ref|sa4|105}} Kaladin notes that everyone present and watching understood that while Lezian had retreated from battles before, it meant something more, something different this time. In running from Kaladin, Lezian's title was broken, and he was no longer the Pursuer.{{book ref|sa4|105}}
After Moash has broken Kaladin's resolve by showing him a dead Teft, he grabs a gagged and bound Lirin, and waits for Lezian, who arrives as a shameful ribbon. As he materialized a body, Moash hands him Lirin, and commands him to kill him if Kaladin regains his senses. Lezian doesn't quite want to accept it, as he wants to go kill Kaladin immediately, but folds for the time being, as Moash explains to him what will happen should he interfere with Kaladin grieving.{{book ref|sa4|105}}
After Moash leaves, Lezian is restless regardless. He hands Lirin over to Leshwi, and as she cuts away his bonds, berates her for trying to turn [[Fused#The_Nine|the Nine]] against him, saying she wants to destroy his legacy. Leshwi argues that his legacy is already dead, and that it died the moment he ran from Kaladin. This enrages Lezian, and he loudly declares that his legacy is untouched, and that he can prove it, as he drops his first body as a husk and streaks as a ribbon towards Kaladin.{{book ref|sa4|106}}
