World of Origin Roshar

The Dawnsingers are the ancient singers before the arrival of humans of Roshar and the advent of Desolations. One of them wrote the Eila Stele.

The Dawnsingers were believed to be some sort of spren by the ardentia. Supposedly they were healers that kindly helped the humans who had just been driven from the Tranquiline Halls to Roshar, but they didn't do large things, like cutting the cavern that would later become the Palanaeum.[1] According to mythology they also gave humanity the gifts of the symmetrical glyphs and Alethi letters.[2] They also were said to have helped found the Dawncities.[3] It is unknown which of these were done by the actual Dawnsingers and which are mere myth.
