This seems to be from the perspective of one of the [[Knights Radiant]], likely from the [[Day of Recreance]]. The phrase "Why have you forsaken us, Almighty" likely refers to how, in the years before the Recreance, [[Honor]] did not support the newest generation of Radiants when they discovered the truth about the [[First Desolation]], and instead raved about his belief that their [[Surgebinding]] would destroy Roshar.{{book ref|sa3|113}} The phrase "Shard of my soul, where have you gone" seems to refer to how the Radiants lost their spren during the Recreance, as the [[Nahel Bond]] allows a spren to fill in some of the cracks in a person's soul.{{wob ref|2542}}
