The original idea for the story involved a group of refugees arriving in the [[Forests of Hell]] after having fled the Homeland, now destroyed by the Evil.{{wob ref\|9145}} Recent years have seen Brandon grow more confident in his idea to flip the story on its head and instead focus on people attempting to take back the Homeland.{{wob ref\|5732}} He has not yet fully completed an outline for the book.{{wob ref\|13454}} == Trivia == * One of the reasons Brandon wants to write this book is because there is "a group" that will be important later in the ~~Cosmere~~cosmere saga, and he needs to write a book about them, so ~~people~~that readers know who they are.{{wob ref\|12635}} * When Brandon first dropped the potential name of the novel in 2016 he called it "Dusk Brigade", but it was misheard as "Dust Brigade".{{wob ref\|12720}} The name "Dust Brigade" was then used in the fandom for years. It wasn't until 2022 when Brandon talked about changing the in-universe group's name to "Night Brigade" (due to the similarity with the character named [[Sixth of the Dusk (character)\|Sixth of the Dusk]]) that the communication error was caught.{{wob ref\|15573}} == Notes == <references /> {{meta/done}} {{books}} [[es:The Night Brigade]]
