Who's the killer?[edit]

Is there actually confirmation on Ialai's killer? I am now doing my second reread and the annotation for Ialai's killer is marked as chapter 7, though that chapter explicitly DOES NOT name Shallan the killer. Veil did want to kill Ialai, but ultimately decides against it in the end.

The annotation for Ialai's death notes Shallan as the killer from chapter 7, but that chapter explicitly does not note Shallan as the killer. Veil wanted to kill Ialai, but reverses her decision after speaking to her. Should this remain the annotation? Cobalt Crusader (talk) 19:41, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

It was actually Radiant who killed Ialai, in order to protect Shallan from having to do it and further feed Formless. I can't really say what would be the best choice in this situation, as I'm relatively inexperienced, but I hope it helps with your decision. Spriy (talk), 19:44, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
Honestly, I'm not sure the infobox needs to list anyone as her killer; infoboxes don't need to be exhaustive and this is covered well in the last paragraph of the history section. But if it stays, I suppose it should probably be written as Radiant and cite chapter 93. --Stargazer (talk) 20:59, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
I agree with Stargazer, even though I previously reviewed this article. :) There's really no need to include that information in the infobox, especially since it's quite a large spoiler. I will remove it. -Big Smooth (talk) 21:54, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
