→The Assassination of Gavilar Kholin
|
}}
At some point, Nale got in contact with the [[Alethi]] king [[Gavilar Kholin]], possibly through [[Kalak]] and his [[Sons of Honor]], which the king was a part of. While Nale participated in Gavilar's secret project, he didn't seem to have much patience for it. Regardless, he visited the man the night of his [[Assassination of Gavilar|assassination]] in {{Rosharan date|1167|9|missing-date=?}}.{{book ref|sa4|prologue}}
A few hours before the feast began, Nale stumbled upon [[Venli]] and [[Ulim]] skulking around the [[Kholinar Palace]], and immediately recognized the latter. Silencing the [[Voidspren]], he began questioning Venli about the number of returning Voidspren; however, she managed to trick him into believing that it was his own actions that had prompted a new Return. Incensed, and thinking that Gavilar's project caused the Voidspren to come back, Nale decided to try and prevent further catastrophe. He explained to Venli that there was a loophole in the treaty that would allow the listeners to attack the Alethi if they believed there was a conspiracy against them. He also pointed her towards [[Szeth]] and pardoned her for sneaking into off-limits section of the palace before leaving in a huff.{{book ref|sa4|77}}

Following the feast, Nale continued his trail of murder, killing the [[Truthwatcher]] [[Ym]] for a forty-year-old crime.{{book ref|sa2|i|2}}{{wob ref|2507}} Afterwards, he focused his efforts on the [[Edgedancer]] [[Lift]], tracking her down all the way to the royal palace of [[Azimir]]. While he managed to catch her, and fill out the proper paperwork to have her killed, [[Gawx]] died in the process and Lift managed to heal the boy. This led to Gawx being pronounced the new [[Prime Aqasix]] and pardoning Lift, which in turn forced Nale to relent, as he had no excuse to kill her anymore.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}
