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}}
 
In December 2014 Brandon mentioned that he had made a lot of progress on the setting for ''Dark One'', now referring it to it as a cosmere work. He also said that it would likely be the teen series he worked on once ''[[The Reckoners]]'' and ''The Rithmatist'' were complete.{{ref|name=sots14}} Brandon has mentioned the possibility of it being released by Penguin Random House, as ''The Reckoners'' is, instead of by Tor.{{cite|at one of the Firefight signings--or maybe the Figment chat}}
 
The electrified world setting is based on the work of [[wikipedia: Nikola Tesla|Nikola Tesla]] who wanted to develop wireless electricity.{{ref|name=teslatopia}}
