''Dark One'' takes place on a previously unknown Shardworld focused around electricity.{{qa ref|1127|8|}} On this Shardworld the ground itself carries an electrical charge and the flora and fauna has evolved around that charge. An example of this being certain animals being able to shoot spittle that acts like a taser.{{ref|name=teslatopia}}
It was originally planned to be a cosmere stories, but Sanderson changed his mind and thought it would work better as a separate story.
== 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}}
