For their first date, Adolin
While waiting out the highstorm, Adolin
▲While waiting out the highstorm, Adolin encounters Sadeas. Sadeas tries to engage Adolin in conversation about fashion and Adolin thinks about how much he wants to kill the highprince, but knows that it would only lead to his own execution or exile. Sadeas reveals that he has renounced the title of [[Highprince of Information]]. Adolin interprets this as a rejection of the King's authority. Sadeas goes on to say that he is glad Adolin survived the Tower and that he will make a fine highprince in the upcoming months and goes as far as to say that in ten years he and Adolin will have a fine alliance. Adolin counters with saying he'll have killed Sadeas by then. When Adolin returns to his father's bunker, he finds the bridgemen around another mysterious message. Adolin has them summon Navani. Dalinar believes he might have made the markings during one of his fits because they were made with his knife but Adolin points out anyone could have taken it to do this. Dalinar and Navani are of a different opinion however. {{book ref|sa2|50}}
The next day, Adolin takes Dalinar's place at the meeting with [[Eshonai]], pretending to be him by wearing Renarin's Shardplate. When he meets Eshonai, she tells him that the Parshendi have changed the rules of the conflict and that peace will be achieved when one of them is dead and that the gemhearts no longer matter. When Adolin reiterates the desire for peace, Eshonai tells him that the Alethi will have to destroy the Parshendi. When he asks why they killed Gavilar, she tells him that Gavilar told them his plans and thought they'd delight in the return of their gods. When Adolin returns to the camps, he finds Dalinar and his generals formulating a plan to take the fight to the Parshendi directly. {{book ref|sa2|51}}
