Difference between revisions of "Teft"

 

Teft was the first to suspect Kaladin might be able to use [[stormlight]], saving Kaladin's life in the process. He learned this by (amongst other things) pushing a dun [[spheres|sphere]] into Kaladin's hand, claiming it to be "For luck" just before Kaladin was to be left outside alone to face "the judgement of the [[Stormfather]]" by way of the [[highstorm]]. After the storm the sphere Kaladin had been given appeared to still be dun, even though it should have been infused with light by the highstorm it was left outside during, leading Teft to muse, "An empty sphere after a storm, he thought. And a man who's still alive when he should be dead. Two impossibilities." That meant Kaladin had "stolen" the light that infused the sphere, which left Teft almost certain that Kaladin had the ability to [[infuse]] stormlight and that Kaladin was part of the events the [[Envisagers]] had been waiting for. When Kaladin was recovering from his wounds and fever after the highstorm, Teft brought three small infused diamond spheres and pressed them into Kaladin's hand, waiting anxiously to see what would happen. When Teft had nearly lost hope of being right about the events and their meaning, Kaladin drew in a short powerful breath infusing himself with stormlight and began to glow from the leaking stormlight. Teft knowing there was a healing effect to the stormlight repeated this treatment enough as to not draw suspicion from the other bridgemen, and ten days after the hanging in the highstorm, Kaladin arose.

 

During his many conversations with Kaladin he stated time and again he isn't to be trusted. Either due to the events that lead to the fall of the Envisagers, or some other unknown event.
