Chapter 1
Lift practices using the Surge of Friction while staying on her feet as she travels south from Azimir. She has "escaped" from the palace because she was afraid she would lose her identity with all the lessons, nice clothes, etc. Wyndle questions Lift's decision to leave and tries to convince her to turn back.
Chapter 2
Lift arrives at Yeddaw, a city "cut out of the starvin' ground" with Shardblades. As they approach the city, she and Wyndle discuss the Everstorm and the strange things going on in the world. Lift also mentions one of her goals while she is in the city -- eating all ten varieties of pancakes that people eat during the Weeping in Yeddaw. They encounter a long queue of refugees waiting to enter a well-guarded entrance. Lift sneaks toward the front of the line.
