=== Dalinar's Honor Guard ===
{{image|WOKLB - Part4 End by Steve Argyle.jpg|Teft and Bridge Four standing behind [[Dalinar]] as he trades [[Oathbringer (Shardblade)|Oathbringer]] for them|width=250px|side=left}}
After Dalinar traded [[Oathbringer (Shardblade)|Oathbringer]] for the lives of Sadeas' bridgemen, Teft joined with the rest of Bridge Four as his personal guard.{{book ref|sa1|73}} Kaladin created a command structure among the former bridge crews he was going to train into guards, making Teft a lieutenant and putting him in overall charge of training. He directed Teft to begin by organizing the bridgemen into groups of forty, then training two from each group to act as sergeants to the rest of their men. Not long after, Bridge Four went to get tattoos to cover up the slave brands that most of them had on their foreheads, and Teft got one too, despite the fact that he never had a slave brand. He was the first to speak up for [[Rlain|Shen]] when the tattooist objected to serving him. As the group outfitted themselves in their new [[Cobalt Guard]] uniforms, Teft tried to talk Kaladin into showing Dalinar what he could do, but Kaladin refused outright. When the others cut the old guard's insignia out of the uniforms, Teft agreed with them that they weren't just replacements, they were their own crew: Bridge Four.{{book ref|sa2|2}}
Teft had a difficult time getting anywhere at first with training the former bridgemen,{{book ref|sa2|5}} prompting Kaladin, Rock, and Teft to take the group of trainees into the chasms; this helped the new recruits feel included and opened them up to show interest in the training.{{book ref|sa2|9}} On one of the regular trips to the chasms they began making, Teft left the trainees under [[Drehy]]'s direction and came to speak with Kaladin, who asked him more about the Radiants and observed that Teft became much more dour when speaking about his past.{{book ref|sa2|12}}
