;Plot Summary
Szeth and the other Skybreaker hopefuls are dropped off at a town on the northern border of the Purelake for their first test. A tall, strong man impatiently tells them that a group of convicts escaped hours ago, and that they can be identified by the tattoos on their foreheads. Many of the hopefuls and squires being tested run off, already searching for the escapees. Szeth lingers and asks Ki about why they were notified and allowed to act, and she tells him that since appearance of the Everstorm, the Skybreakers have been expanding their influence and accepted by some governments as a lawkeeping force. Ki then explains the current situation, elaborating on how the convicts were kept alive despite their guilt because of the "Reshi idealists" in the region, and that the convicts are gathered in the local prison, which is maintained by Minister [[Kwati]] with the funds he is given. Szeth is a bit confused by the purpose of the test. As he and a few other remaining squires leave, Ki asks Szeth on why he is willing to walk on stone when all the other Shin she has met call it holy and refuse, and he tells her that if stone really was holy, he would have been burned away a long time ago. Szeth enters the Purelake, and the sword tells him that he is far behind the others.
