'''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 ==
[[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}}
