- There. Dalinar felt something. A … faint Connection, like when he learned someone’s language. His Surgebinding, his powers, drew him through the wind around the outside base of the tower—until he found something remarkable. A single figure, almost invisible in the darkness, clinging to the outside of the tower on the eighth level.
- Kaladin Stormblessed.
- Dalinar could not fathom what had brought the Windrunner to expose himself like this in a storm, but here he was. Holding on tightly to a ledge. His clothing was ragged, and he was wounded—bleeding from numerous cuts.
- “Blood of my fathers,” Dalinar whispered. “Stormfather, do you see him?”
- I … feel him, the Stormfather said. Through you. He seems to be waiting for the center of the storm, where his spheres and Stormlight will renew.
- Dalinar drew close to the young man, who had buried his head into his shoulder for protection. He was soaked through, a piece of his shirt slapping against the stone over and over.
- “Kaladin?” Dalinar shouted. “Kaladin, what has happened?”
- The young man didn’t move. Dalinar calmed himself, resisting the furious winds, and drew power from the soul of the storm.
- KALADIN , he said.
- Kaladin shifted, turning his head. His skin had gone pale, his hair matted and whipped into rain-drenched knots. Storms … he looked like a dead man.
- WHAT HAS HAPPENED ? Dalinar demanded as the storm.
- “Singer invasion,” Kaladin whispered into the wind. “Navani captured. The tower on lockdown. Other Radiants are all unconscious.”
