\|books=[[The Stormlight Archive]] }} {{update\|sa4}} {{quote \| A well of power that pierces all three realms. A pathway home. '''Honor's Perpendicularity''' is one of [[Roshar]]'s two [[perpendicularity\|perpendicularities]], alongside [[Cultivation's Perpendicularity\|Cultivation's]].{{book ref\|sa3\|93}} It's considered highly dangerous and has a habit of moving around, appearing in various places at random.{{book ref\|sa3\|93}} What usually causes it to appear or vanish is unclear, as is, how closely it is linked with the highstorms.{{wob ref\|1525}} During the True Desolation, Honor's Perpendicularity can be opened at will by the [[Bondsmith]] [[Dalinar]]. This was not possible for previous Bondsmiths. After [[Ishar]] saw Dalinar opening the perpendicularity, the Herald is able to replicate the feat.{{book ref\|sa4\|111}} == At Thaylen Field == {{quote [[Dalinar]] manages to summon Honor's perpendicularity in [[Thaylen City]] during the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], after swearing his Third Ideal as a [[Bondsmith]]. There, it takes the form of a column of golden light surrounding Dalinar, and seems to attract numerous [[gloryspren]]. [[Odium]] is terrified of its appearance, withdrawing from the battlefield almost as soon as he sees it.{{book ref\|sa3\|119}} The perpendicularity collapses on its own after just a few moments, although the three Realms remain close for a short time longer.{{book ref\|sa3\|120}} While open, the perpendicularity not only allows for people to cross over between [[Shadesmar]] and Roshar's [[Physical Realm]], but also provides effectively- unlimited [[Stormlight]] to the surrounding area, refilling all [[gemstone]]s and allowing the [[Surgebinder]]s present to use their powers to their full potential. It also causes [[Taln]] to regain some of his mental functions, as he acts cognizant of his surroundings while it is open. Moreover, Dalinar seems more [[cosmere]]-aware during that time, with knowledge and understanding of concepts he has never been taught, which seems to diminish shortly after the perpendicularity closes.{{book ref\|sa3\|119}}{{book ref\|sa3\|120}} It is possible that this is due to a temporary [[Ascension]] to the Shard.{{wob ref\|10443}} In [[Shadesmar]], the perpendicularity likewise manifests as a column of light, with the surrounding soul-beads melting together, creating solid ground. The [[Fused]] have a violent reaction to its opening, being blasted away as if by wind. Notably, the same doesn't happen to either humans or spren.{{book ref\|sa3\|119}} == Trivia == * In a deleted scene from ''[[Words of Radiance]]'', Honor's perpendicularity is a stable junction that would allow [[Jasnah]] to safely return from Shadesmar, with [[Ivory]] knowing its location.{{wob ref\|12304}} It's unknown if the canon for it changed later, or if it was a mistake that would've been picked in the editing phase, were the scene to remain in the book. ~~== Speculation ==~~ ~~When speaking the third ideal, Dalinar says {{quote~~ ~~\| We are Connected. (...) We are something different. His remnants, your soul, my will.~~ ~~\| [[Dalinar]] to [[Stormfather]]{{book ref\|sa3\|119}}~~ }} This and Odiums fear partially implies that as a bond smith, it is possible for Dalinar to potentially gain control of or even bond the splinters of Honors power. If this is truly possible, then it would be the first instance of a shard repairing itself within the Cosmere. == Notes == <references /> {{~~complete~~partial}} {{Stormlight}} [[category: possessive articles]] [[es: Perpendicularidad de Honor]]
