Days later, Notum attempted to remove [[Kaladin]] from the upper deck of his ship. Kaladin again tried to convince him to release Syl from her quarters. Notum threatened to lock Kaladin up again or throw him overboard. Notum explained to Kaladin that he considered
After several hours spent trying to outrun the Fused, Notum agreed to help. He freed Syl and had his crew unlatch a section of the hull for the Radiants and their spren to escape through.

Notum left, intending to try again to dissuade Adolin from visiting Lasting Integrity if they met again on the road.{{book ref|sa4|30}}
