The Evil is a semi-mythological being on Threnody, the Shardworld that contains the Forests of Hell.[1]
It is said to be what killed everyone in Homeland back in the Fallen World.[1]
Silence's grandmother believes that the Forescouts will be the ones to eventually defeat the Evil.[1]
It is rumored that the White Fox has shaken hands with the Evil.[1]
Nature of The Evil
It is difficult to ascertain precisely what the Evil is and what it did. What is known for certain is that it is not a full Shard.[2] It certainly seems to have caused widespread death and destruction.[1] It is apparently dangerous enough to cause an entire population to abandon their original continent and flee to the Forests of Hell, a place they once considered to be realm of the damned. The possibility remains that it is a Splinter of sort, but that seems unlikely. It has something to do with the same natural magic of the cosmere and the cognitive shadows that have to do with the shades.[3]
