Vai
As she returned, Kaladin realized they weren’t monsters, just slaves. The comment upset Sah, who confessed that he spends each night clutching his daughter wondering how long they would be trapped in the shadows. He asked Kaladin if he truly understood what it was like watching your family being torn apart and being completely unable to stop it. Sah dropped Kaladin and picked up his daughter, holding her close as he ran to catch up with the others. As Kaladin was pulled along, he inadvertently stepped on Vai’s flower in haste.{{book ref|sa3|17}}▼

Kaladin offered to help the parshmen, but Sah questioned whether or not he really just wanted them to get caught. As Sah walked off to confer with the other parshmen, Vai walked over to where Kaladin sat, bringing him a waterskin. She then backed away, but didn’t flee as Kaladin reached for the waterskin. When he thanked her, she asked if they would chase them, why they couldn’t just let them go. She asked Kaladin if he could go back and tell them that they don’t want trouble. Kaladin apologized, but he told Vai they will come. They are considered “a resource” they can’t ignore.{{book ref|sa3|17}}▼

Vai sniffled and asked why, that they never tried to hurt them, they were nice. She even promised that she never hit anyone when she was mad. Kaladin explained that he didn’t mean her, but Vai’s ancestors. However, he trailed off as he didn’t know how to explain slavery to a seven-year-old. He tossed the waterskin back to her and she ran back to her father.{{book ref|sa3|17}}▼

===Separation from Sah===
Unfortunately, Vai was taken from her father by order of the [[Fused]] when Sah, Khen, and the other singers in their group were sent along with [[Moash]] to fight in the [[Siege of Kholinar]]. This was supposedly a punishment for "harboring" Kaladin as a spy, although in reality the Fused were looking for reasons to conscript more singers into their infantry. Sah was enraged by this development, but had no recourse.{{book ref|sa3|54}} He was ultimately killed in the fighting; Kaladin, who participated in the battle alongside the [[Kholinar Wall Guard]], slumped to his knees upon seeing Sah fall, recalling that all he ever wanted was to protect his daughter.{{book ref|sa3|84}} Vai's whereabouts after being separated from her father are unknown but she is still alive.{{wob ref|15903}}
