Shortly after, Ishar fled through another perpendicularity into [[Shadesmar]]. Sigzil and the others waited in the sky above the camp, then descended again when it seemed obvious that Ishar was not immediately coming back. They poked through the Herald's tent among several odd corpses covered in sheets, and Sigzil found a ledger detailing his experiments: records recounting how long each [[spren]] had lived in the body the Herald had created for it in the [[Physical Realm]]. Appalled, the group fled back to their camp in Emul.{{book ref|sa4|111}}
=== Skybreaker ===
At some point after the True Desolation, Sigzil became a Skybreaker, bonding to [[Auxiliary]]. He managed to swear up to the Fourth Ideal.{{cite}}
=== Dawnshard and the Night Brigade ===
At an unknown point, Hoid offered Sigzil a Dawnshard for the sake of protecting the cosmere, which he accepted.{{book ref|tsm|10}} This put him on the radar of the Night Brigade, who began to hunt him down across the cosmere.{{book ref|tsm|10}} The process also left him with what he described as a "torment": any attempt to hurt another person would cause his muscles to lock up, leaving him temporarily helpless.
In a moment of need Sigzil, carrying the Dawnshard, reached out for Investiture to protect himself, looking for Investiture, the Dawnshard found it in Auxiliary and started to use his essence to fuel Sigzil's abilities, burning him away.{{book ref|tsm|20}} Sigzil just barely managed to stop it before Auxiliary was entirely burned away, which had an immense negative impact on the [[highspren]].{{book ref|tsm|12}}{{book ref|tsm|20}}
Eventually, he gave the Dawnshard to somebody else, hoping that it would get the Night Brigade off his trail, but they continued to hunt him regardless. This is because his lingering Connection to the Dawnshard could lead them to it by making a Hemalurgic spike out of him.{{book ref|tsm|28}} Thus he was forced to continue running from them for decades.{{book ref|tsm|13}} During this time, he had visited numerous planets,{{wob ref|15592}}{{wob ref|15589}} including [[Ashyn]] and [[Threnody]].{{book ref|tsm|2}}{{book ref|tsm|15}}
