(Undo revision 120983 by Pevin al'Meara (talk) That was an excerpt from Rhythm of War, a book which hasn't come out yet, and as such spoilers. This could be added in its own little subsection (similar to how the Herdazian general page handles it), but it might be better to leave it off until the book is out.)

=== Shattering and ancient Roshar ===
It's unknown who Cultivation's Vessel is, only that she dates back to the [[Shattering of Adonalsium]] and that she greatly dislikes [[Hoid]].{{book ref|sa2|55}} The Shard itself was creatingcreated during the Shattering, and was subsequently taken up by the Vessel. She and [[Honor]], with whom she was romantically involved, departed the site of the Shattering, [[Yolen]], and ended up on Roshar.{{wob ref|2786}} There, they became the gods of a local sentient species known as the [[singer]]s. However, following [[Odium]]'s arrival in the [[Rosharan system]], the two Shards ended up siding with human newcomers instead.{{book ref|sa3|111}}
 
Although Cultivation assisted Honor in fighting Odium, Honor still perished.{{wob ref|2729}} Following his death, Cultivation withdrew in grief, and appeared to have lost all interest in aiding mankind any longer.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} This was not entirely correct, however -- rather than hiding, she was planning.{{wob ref|8669}}
