'''Dai-gonarthis''' is believed to be one of the [[Unmade]],{{epigraph ref|sa3|113}} an ancient and terrible [[spren]] of [[Odium]].{{
Little is known of Dai-gonarthis
During one of his conversations with [[Dalinar Kholin]], the mad [[Jezrien]], in the guise of Ahu, also references the Black Fisher, lending further credibility to the theory that it is an important creature of Odium.{{book ref|sa3|88}}
== Trivia ==
▲Little is known of Dai-gonarthis, even its gender is uncertain. [[Hessi]] posits in [[Mythica]] that it may have been involved in the [[scouring of Aimia]] somehow, although the specifics are uncertain.{{epigraph ref|sa3|113}} She also expresses uncertainty that Dai-gonarthis is a member of the Unmade at all. However, it does seem likely that Dai-gonarthis is truly the final Unmade though, as in one of the [[Death Rattle]]s collected by King [[Taravangian]]'s [[Silent Gatherer]]s, a dying woman mentions the name Dai-gonarthis.{{epigraph ref|sa1|67}} During one of his conversations with [[Dalinar Kholin]], the mad [[Jezrien]], in the guise of Ahu, also references the Black Fisher, so there is likely some importance to Dai-gonarthis.{{book ref|sa3|88}}
* The name Dai-Gonarthis is most likely derived from [[wikipedia:Dagon|Dagon]], an ancient Canaanite deity later reimagined as a Lovecraftian sea god.{{url ref|url=https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/62476-ob-unmade-name-linguistic-origins/|text=Unmade Name Linguistic Origins|site=17th Shard}}
