{{AlphaToC}} __NOTOC__
This glossary was original on Brandon's website. It is no longer available there, but can still be viewed on the [http://web.archive.org/web/20190428151604/https://brandonsanderson.com/books/elantris/elantris/elantris-glossary/ Internet Archive]. It is unclear whether this change was a simple technical error or whether Brandon decided to take the glossary down, and its current canonicity is unclear.

Keseg didn't see himself as a revolutionary; his teachings were meant to clarify what the JinDo already believed. His two disciples, however, collected his teachings in the Do-Keseg, then carried them through the world.}}
