He draws the sword again during the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]] as he tries to help [[Lift]] retrieve the [[King's Drop]], effortlessly vaporizing large swaths of enemy fighters. One of the [[Fused]] is able to take the sword's sheath and block a strike with it, leaving Szeth holding it until it nearly kills both him and Lift.{{book ref|sa3|118}} They are saved when [[Dalinar Kholin]] creates a [[perpendicularity]] that douses the area in Stormlight, satiating Nightblood and allowing Szeth to retrieve the sheath.{{book ref|sa3|119}}
