| − | '''The Highprince of Information''' is a title bestowed by the [[Alethi]] king to one of the [[highprince]]s. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The Highprince of Information has authority over criminal investigations, particularly those of interest to the Crown.{{book ref|sa1|22}} The title also grants permission to enter another highprince's land and question their servants and troops. Denying the Highprince of Information access to these could be taken as denying the kings will. |

| − | == History == |
||
| − | As [[Torol Sadeas]] suggested, [[Elhokar|King Elhokar]] made him Highprince of Information. His first task was the investigation of a suspected assassination attempt on the king during a chasmfiend hunt, but Sadeas disproved that assertion later.{{book ref|sa1|54}} |
||
| − | Sadeas renounced the title of Highprince of Information later, in order to distance himself from the king's authority and antagonize the throne and [[Dalinar]], as it had been his idea to institute these functions into Elhokar's kingdom as a means of preparing the other Highprinces for his nomination as Highprince of War. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After the relocation to [[Urithiru]] and Sadeas' murder, Highprince [[Aladar]] was named Highprince of Information by Dalinar.{{Book ref|sa3|2}} He tasks Aladar with establishing law and order in Urithiru, and making sure the other highprinces know their realms of control with Urithiru. Aladar moves forward and uses his scribes and military as a policing force and to investigate.{{book ref|sa3|18}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | As it was not in Dalinar's own authority to do so, it can be surmised that either Elhokar ratified this decision after the fact or that he gave his uncle the authority to make this nomination in his name beforehand. |
