Hessi is a scholar and author on Roshar. She is the author of Mythica, a work which investigates historical information about the Unmade and explores their characteristics.[1] Selections from Mythica are used as the epigraphs for part four of Oathbringer.[2]
History
Hessi was presumably alive in Roshar during the arrival of the Everstorm; she was a contemporary of Jasnah Kholin[3] and Shallan Davar mentioned that Mythica was a recent work.[1] Shallan told Adolin and Kaladin about some of Hessi's controversial hypotheses in the book, noting that Mythica was poorly received and was hard to find.[1] Hessi herself knew that aspects of Mythica would be contentious, such as her assertions that the Unmade were still alive[4] and that Moelach was responsible for Death Rattles.[5] Subsequent events proved Hessi to be correct on a number of occasions,[1] indicating that Hessi is a gifted researcher, as she was apparently able to meet the challenge of separating fact from fiction in the many tales and stories about the Unmade.[6]
