==Prologue: To Kill==
{{epigraph|The love of men is a frigid thing, a mountain stream only three steps from the ice. We are his. Oh
The prologue begins 4500 years later with [[Szeth]], a [[Truthless]] [[Shin]] assassin, waiting quietly in a large room, watching the [[Alethi]] celebrate the signing of a peace treaty with the [[Parshendi]]. He leaves the room, noting that his Parshendi masters will soon withdraw. Szeth wears white under the orders of the Parshendi to follow their traditions so that King [[Gavilar]] could see him coming.
