[109], With the Weeping underway, Kaladin felt the darkness return. I won't stand there and watch while men die behind me. Kaladin told her he could see her and she replied that she wanted him to. Kaladin attacked again and broke the highlord's breastplate revealing a large crystal underneath. [5], Over next few weeks, Kaladin grew more and more depressed. However, Kaladin confessed that he had everything taken away from him by the lighteyes and for now, he couldnt let them take this too. Well before the end of one of them, Bluth lowered the sides of the wagon, allowing the rain to soak the slaves. When Kaladin tried to take his brothers place, he was denied because the law gave the choice to Roshone alone. Kaladin thanked Dalinar, and left to go rest. [179][180] Navani came up with the idea of using the glove created by her ardent Tomor for Kaladin to use in replacement of his missing Lashings, and with some training, he was able to use it in combat. Despite the outward confidence he is often able to show, he often feels like a failure, focusing on the many deaths that he feels he could have prevented. At the age of eighteen, Kaladin was promoted to squadleader, making him the youngest one in the army and became known as Kaladin Stormblessed. He was a surgeon who would help anyone, even those who hated him. Before either man could discuss it further, Lopen pointed out that Kaladin was glowing. Things were compounded the next day when Kaladin met Matal, their new commander, and was re-acquainted with his wife, Hashal. With word spreading that the emperor of Azir was dead at the hands of the Assassin in White, Kaladin reminded Teft that the assassin had already killed Gavilar and they just had to hope he was done. However, Kaladin decided to accept the responsibility that Surgebinding represented and use the power to help others. They went through countless bridgeleaders, which typically was a favored position on a bridge crew, always getting to run in the best places. [22] While his honorspren is present with him, his movements are enhanced by her, which Kaladin describes as "being guided by the wind." Believing that Lirin had stolen the spheres from Wistiow, he coerced the townspeople to stop making donations for Lirins work, which was the primary source of the familys income. It's gonna be choosing todedicatethemselves to something. Just like Hobber did. I broadly agree with your premise. He stepped out of line and saw a tall parshwoman with red eyes, like those of the Shattered Plains. As the carriage moved along, Kaladin spoke with Wit, who revealed he knew about Kaladin's abilities. He also lamented that he didnt have friends and asked what would happen if he wanted to become something other than a surgeon. [54], When Navani requested Windrunners to go on an expedition to Akinah to find the Oathgate there, Kaladin initially suggested sending Teft. He looked so bad, one of the ardents brought him soup as if he were one of the refugees. To his knowledge, spren could mimic voices or expressions, but they didnt have actual intelligence or memory. Knowing it would only be a matter of time before the rotspren were attracted to the wounded, Kaladin came up with the idea of collecting knobweed stems during stone-gathering detail. He wondered what it would be like marrying Laral and if he did, would he always feel inferior to her. Kaladin noticed that Abrobadar had been defeated by Adolin as well. Shaking off his vision, Kaladin went to clean up, even letting Rock give him a shave. Calling it a day, the men returned to the warcamp and to the news that a hero had come to the Shattered Plains. Realizing it was going to be a difficult approach, Kaladin ordered Bridge Four to perform the side carry as they engaged the Parshendi. In his fight with Szeth, she takes the shape of a sword, shield, spear, halberd, dagger, and warhammer. Dalinars connection to the Stormfather and his incredible abilities as of Oathbringer give him a special link to Honors power. His expression became gloomy as he was conflicted on which path to choose, surgeon or soldier. However, Hesina reminded him that that his life was his own and that he didnt have to become a surgeon to make them proud. [166], Some days later, Kaladin used the Oathgate to travel to the Shattered Plains while he contemplated what role he wanted. Outside the clouds changed as a highstorm is passing in the Physical. The night culminated in Kaladin using the money he had earned to purchase food and assigning Rock to cook a stew. Syl explained that the spren leading the parshmen must be from him, a Voidspren. Adolin returned, and he and Veil talked about the ongoing wedding party and how Kaladin didn't notice the bar staff. [16], In four years, I will bring him home safely. One day, when Kaladin was lying on the roof during the rain after repairing a leak, Tien called up to him, wanting to join him. [170], Teft and Kaladin went to the winehouse for drinks, both sticking to orange. Laral rejoined them, commenting that Tien changed Kal for the better. [137] The Wall Guard send five to six hundred troops led by Azure and Kaladin to join the assault on the palace. Gaz ran beside Bridge Four, calling out commands during the run due to their most recent bridgeleader having tossed himself down the Honor Chasm. They discussed the reason for Moash's hatred towards the King, and Kaladin agreed to meet with the Moash's partners. [108] When the storm ended, the pair found their way back to the warcamps, with Bridge Four there to meet them. [183], You told me it would get worse. Graves and Moash attempted to make it look like Szeth attacked, and Kaladin heard an argument between Syl and the Stormfather. As Adolin, Shallan and Dalinar stood on the mechanical bridge, Kaladin realized a bit too late about the incoming danger. The highprince shared some advice from Zahel about war and suggested they spar when he came back. [89], During each highstorm, Kaladin gathered all those who were under his protection in one location to make it easier to keep them safe. Later, Kaladin sat to recover while the others arranged passage and supplies. He will have a patient or patients that he cannot save. The Coppermind has spoilers for all of Brandon's published works, now including The Lost Metal and Tress of the Emerald Sea (Secret Project 1). After joining the army, he had considerable practice as a field medic, attending to his fellows soldiers injured in combat. Kaladin, with the help of Syl, aimed himself towards the well, to avoid further injuring himself after going through a loophole to avoid a true duel with Leshwi. The ancient code of the Knights Radiant says journey before destination. Some may call it a simple platitude, but it is far more. Kaladin asked Syl if there were more like him. Kaladin was able to swim with help from Tomor's device and destroyed the node in the well. Lirin admitted that he wasnt sure if he even wanted to attend as a part of him just wanted to take the family and flee to Kharbranth or another Alethi town. Later a scout came with an urgent message. He asked Syl if she knew anything about Odium, which caused her to hiss and flee immediately to a nearby building. This hurt Kaladin and started to exaggerate his depression. Sorry If someone had this idea before but I did not see it. [165], Wit and Kaladin's relationship is strange but positive; they've only met and had serious conversations a few times but each time Wit has taken the effort to give Kaladin some needed emotional support and reinforcement, thus far by telling him a story that goads Kaladin into some sort of growth (despite Wit's protests that the stories have no inherent meaning and anything Kaladin gets out of them is entirely up to Kaladin). He also bribed the surgeons to give priority to his men. On the next bridge run, the youth and the last man that survived Kaladins initial bridge run died, leaving Kaladin the senior member of Bridge Four. Kaladin was about to be left for dead by the retreating bridge crews, until Syl called out his name and urged him to move. Kaladin eventually was backed against a wall, until Adolin appeared and grappled Jakamav to the ground. He was whipped around, until he finally ran out of Stormlight, flinging him several feet in the air and landing across the stable. He pleaded with the Stormfather to show mercy and spare the people below. [103] Finally, Kaladin was released. A series of thumps interrupted Kals thoughts, sending him scrambling out of his chair. Syl was impressed with what he had done, but Kaladin was dissatisfied that it wasn't enough. He promoted Teft, Moash, Skar, Rock and Sigzil to lieutenants, a rank between captain and sergeant, to form a command structure for a thousand men. Bridge Four tossed infused gems to Kaladin, prompting him to attack Szeth, seeking revenge for the fallen bridgemen. [82][83][84], Bridge Four retreated with the rest of Sadeas army, lagging behind so they could carry their wounded. [110] Kaladin walked through the empty camp, and tried to put his losses behind him. [46] [47] However, she is brought back once Kaladin returns to the path of the Windrunner and swears the Third Oath. Now go to work and stop complaining! This angered Kaladin, leaving him unsatisfied with Dalinars promise. Among the caravan was Rock's family, who are introduced to Bridge Four. He threw caution aside and Lashed himself upward, towards the sky, and experienced true freedom and triumph for the first time after Tien's death. The Windrunner froze when Moash outright suggested that Kaladin should kill himself. Kaladin remarked to Syl how the others were checking in on him and flew to Dalinar, who was just getting a report from Roshone. [31], Near the manor, Kaladin noticed the strange Fused with a captured Godeke entering the building. Kaladin struggled to deal with their deaths, worried that soon hed be the only one left. He typically does this while over the highstorm so as to avoid running out of Light. [95], Kaladin surveyed some of the bridge crews one night, before Syl convinced him to relax a litle and get some stew. He wondered what if something happened to one of the others because he wasn't there, to which Dalinar countered by asking what if something happened because he was there and froze. He has had enough of the war and his struggle with his addiction. Kaladin managed to stab Szeth in the foot, and then hit Szeth in the shoulder. However, the rain numbed his fingers and caused him to slip, flapping in the air again. Just like I've done. [192] Because she wants to understand Kaladin better, she goes to Dalinar and asks him to Connect her to Kaladin so she can feel what he feels;[193] he doesn't do exactly what she was expecting, but in remembering her former Knight Syl does begin to feel grief and other shades of sorrow that help her understand Kaladin's depression.[59]. Soon, Wit entered unannounced, and sat on a bench. Lopen reassured him that it wasnt a waste and asked if Kaladin could stick him to the wall. Zahel had them each practice with one of the King's blades to get comfortable with the sight at one. I've just had an epiphany on Kaladin's 4th ideal. Kaladin wondered why she didnt go with the other windspren, but she told him she liked it there with him. Later, when Kaladin and Shallan are both stranded in the chasms of the Shattered Plains, they grow to respect and admire one another. Syl, who had taken up the form of a full-sized person, spoke up and revealed that she remembered being an honorspren, a spirit of oaths, promises, and nobility. Using his Sylblade Kaladin cut one of the spren, and scared off the other spren. When she called him by name, he was shocked as he didnt believe that spren could use peoples names. [11] Unfortunately, every member of the Takers was eventually killed with Kaladin being the lone survivor. [21][101][183] Wit generally spares Kaladin his barbs and mockery, and treats him more kindly than most. [86], The scars havent finished with me yet, it appears. [199] The Shattered Plains plot, originally of Dragonsteel Prime, was moved to Roshar partially to assist in that, giving more context to Merin's slavery. The lighteyes talk about honor. The rest of Bridge Four also appeared anxious as they fell in with their bridgeleader. [12][73], Days passed and the wagons continued to roll on until one particular day when they didnt stop at their usual time, leaving Kaladin to wonder why they hadnt stopped for their afternoon slop. Next to Kaladin, Adolin groaned, and the crowd silenced. Tvlakv called for the mercenaries, but both Bluth and Tag declined to intervene. More specifically, Kaladin named Rock quartermaster, with Lopen as his second, and appointed Sigzil to be their clerk as he was the only one who could read glyphs. Renarin Kholin had come to the fire, and asked Kaladin if he could join Bridge Four. Keeps a special room in Damnation just for you. I actually think Kaladin's breakthrough will come, either directly or indirectly through Lirin and his ability to put his failures behind him. He prefers to be clean-shaven but during his time as a slave, he grows a long, scraggly beard. Dalinar revealed what he knew about Roshone and how he ended up in Hearthstone, much to Kaladin's surprise. [73], Annoyed, Tvlakv told Kaladin it was good that he was fueled by hatred because it would make him strong, but cautioned that it could keep him from getting vengeance. Then better. As Khen's group approached the Parshendi leaders of the small town, the scribe evaluated them and asked about Kaladin's presence. While Dalinar and the others were fighting the Parshendi, Kaladin plummeted towards the Shattered Plains, rejuvenated with power. As Kaladin carried the bridge, he had the idea of using the battle to escape, allowing the army to think that his men had been killed.
