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

Dai-gonarthis is believed to be one of the Unmade,[2] an ancient and terrible spren of Odium.[3] He also seems to be known as the Black Fisher.[1]
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.[2] 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, as in one of the Death Rattles collected by King Taravangian's Silent Gatherers, a dying woman mentions the name Dai-gonarthis.[1] 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.[4]
