== Behind the Scenes ==
Brandon first started work on ''Dark One'' before being hired to finish ''[[The Wheel of Time]]'' when he then shelved it. This is the same situation as with ''[[The Rithmatist]]'' (then referred to as ''Scribbler'').{{bws ref|another-long-winded}} In July 2013 Brandon said that he was having difficulty getting ''Dark One'' "off the ground," that he had had an opportunity but ''The Rithmatist'' had worked better, so he recommended readers to "not hold [their] breath on this one." At this point Brandon described it as non-cosmere.{{ref|name=sots}}
