;Plot Summary
Nomad wakes from [[Worldhopping|skipping]] not knowing where he is. He is questioned by people who speak a language he doesn't understand, and he doesn't have enough [[Investiture]] to have [[Auxiliary]] translate what they are saying. He notices that the plants around him are growing extremely quickly, and that is just before dawn. People in white coats are chaining people to stakes in the ground. When one of the white-coated people tries to place manacles on him, Nomad tries to fight back, but his muscles lock up. He remembers he is beset upon by a Torment, a mysterious condition caused by him having held a [[Dawnshard]] that makes him incapable of causing harm, even in self-defense or defense of others.

A mysterious man—missing his chest, which is replaced by a glowing ember in the center of a burned-out hole—then attacks Nomad with a bat, and Nomad finds his Torment is preventing him from summoning any sort of weapon. He also notices the brightness of the soon-to-rising sun seems much too large for a normal planet. After Nomad stops one of the attacks with his bare hands, the ember man (and others around him) are surprised. The light from the horizon begins to blaze with intense heat, and all the plants around them begin wilting. Nomad is beaten to the ground by another ember man, where his is chained to a rock.
