Later [[Dalinar]] finds Rysn and the wounded Vstim amid the wreckage of the collapsed Thaylen Gemstone Reserve building. He asks Rysn what happened and Vstim is attended to.{{book ref|sa3|116}}
== Dawnshard ==
Prior to Rysn meeting with [[Navani Kholin]], Vstim shares information with her about a secret Alethi [[fabrial]] project involving a set of conjoined fabrial lifts. Some of the details of the project are public, but Vstim's position as Theylan Minister of Trade affords him private information on the true purpose of the project.
It is stated that Vstim accepted investment funds from several people for creation of the Wandersail. However, despite transferring ownership of the Wandersail to Rysn, he remains the primary investor. As such, he receives a portion of the Wandersail's profits.
During the construction and test voyages of the Wandersail, Vstim kept his intention to gift the ship to Rysn private. This led to initial animosity towards Rysn on the part of the crew, who anticipated ownership being given to [[Drlwan]], the captain.
On her voyage to Akinah, Rysn recalls a particular set of trades made by Vstim during an expedition to the wilderness of [[Hexi]]. While in [[Triax]], Vstim purchased barrels of containing worms for mere chips. He later traded the wormy grain to Hexi nomads, as their priestly class took oaths not to eat flesh but considered grubs and insects to be plant, not animal.
When the Wandersail and its crew take shore leave, following the encounter with the [[Sleepless]] in the form of a dead [[santhid]], Rysn communicates with Vstim via spanreed. He informs of the secret purpose of Queen Navani's goal to find an Oathgate on Akinah. Vstim also communicates via spanreed with [[Queen Jasnah Kholin]] on behalf of Rysn regarding [[Aimians]] and Masked Ones, [[Fused]] Lightweavers.
