==== Encounter with Re-Sephir ====

As Shallan attended another meeting led by Dalinar, she drew an image of the spren she encountered while in the theater. Pattern informed her that this was not a typical spren like he is but it was, instead, a spren of [[Odium]]. Bored by the political conversation, Shallan drew an image of Sadeas and discovered that his appearance was similar to that of Brightlord Perel, confirming her belief that the murderer was copying any violent acts performed in Urithiru. While idly flipping through her drawings of the recent murder victims, [[Malata]], the [[Dustbringer]] accompanying [[Taravangian]], attempted to make small talk with the Lightweaver, but Shallan found the conversation unpleasant due to her indifferent attitude and overfamiliarity when conversing with her.{{book ref|sa3|27}} As she began to plan her next move in her search for the murderer, the room quieted as Ialai Sadeas and Meridas Amaram entered. While initially shocked by their sudden appearance, Dalinar attempted to invite Ialai to attend the meeting, but she quickly rejected his invitation and announced Amaram's delegation as regent and heir to the title of House Sadeas. After Adolin insulted the highprince, Dalinar asked his son to leave the room and Shallan quickly followed. When she caught up with the young prince, he expressed his displeasure by Ialai's announcement, and Shallan unexpectedly shared her belief that Amaram may have killed [[Helaran]]. As she explained that the highprince possessed her brother's former Shardblade, Adolin reluctantly shared that Amaram obtained the Shardblade after [[Kaladin]] killed a [[Helaran|Shardbearer]]. Shocked by the news, Shallan tucked her thoughts away, and tried to move the conversation to another topic while they made their ways to the bottom floors of the tower. While Adolin went to visit the stables, Shallan returned to her room and absentmindedly flipped through her sketchbooks to keep her mind busy. While flipping through the sketchbook, she found strange images she could not recall drawing. Disturbed by the drawings, she shut her sketchbook and quickly left her room. Later, she arrived in the common room of the barracks and informed her soldiers the she had a new job for them. {{book ref|sa3|27}}

 

Shallan used her guards to try and search for any more clues about the recent murder. While disguised as Veil, Shallan waited and found a man that was hung similarly to another man that died the same way. As Shallan chased after the murderer, she sent Pattern to bring Adolin whom returned with Bridge Four. As they entered a room containing a pit, they descended into the hole, discovering a room covered with murals depicting all ten [[Herald|heralds]] and the [[Almighty]]. [[Renarin]] found a large black mass, and they discovered that the murders have been the result of the [[Unmade]], [[Re-Shephir]]. {{book ref|sa3|29}}
