→Citylord of Hearthstone
|
Roshone owned several silversmith shops in [[Kholinar]], and used his connection with [[Elhokar Kholin]] to further his own interests. He had become a confidant of Elhokar, who was then the crown-prince of Alethkar, in charge of overseeing the country while his father was away at the [[Shattered Plains]]. Roshone convinced the prince to arrest two elderly darkeyed silversmiths, his business rivals and [[Moash]]'s grandparents, on false charges, where they died in prison awaiting trial. Upon discovering what had happened, Dalinar initially wanted to strip Roshone of his rank and wealth, but political pressures forced him to instead exile Roshone to "a place he couldn't do any more harm".{{book ref|sa2|62}}

When [[Brightlord]] [[Amaram]], a distant cousin of Roshone, comes through the town to recruit, Roshone takes his revenge by deciding that [[Tien]] has to join the army.{{book ref|sa1|44}} At this event, it is obvious that the daughter of former citylord Wistiow, [[Laral]], who was supposed to marry Rillir, would now marry Roshone.
=== After the Everstorm ===
Roshone’s manor survived the Everstorm and he sheltered the village in it. The parlor became a surgeon’s triage room, with mats laid out on the floor bearing wounded.{{book ref|sa3|6}}
