Dai-Gonarthis
Homeworld Roshar

Let me no longer hurt! Let me no longer weep! Dai-gonarthis! The Black Fisher holds my sorrow and consumes it!

—Tanatesach 1173, 28 seconds pre-death. A darkeyed female street juggler. Note similarity to sample 1172-89.[1]

Dai-gonarthis is an unknown being mentioned on Roshar.[1] He appears to also be called the Black Fisher

In one of the Death Rattles collected by King Taravangian's Silent Gatherers, the dying woman mentions the name Dai-gonarthis.[1]

It seems likely that he is an Unmade, due to the similarities in his title and name to Yelig-nar, a known Unmade.[2] It also mentions the word "consume," which seems to be often used in connection with the Unmade.
