Iviad
World of Origin Roshar
Universe Cosmere

The Iviad is a literary work on Roshar. Jasnah Kholin implies that it is extremely well-known, to the point that most scholars would recognize passages without a specific reference.[1]

Contents[edit]

The Iviad's age, format, author, and language are unknown. It has only been mentioned once, by Jasnah during her research of the Voidbringers.[1] The lines of the work are numbered for reference and the excerpt is written in sentence fragments, suggesting that the Iviad is a work of poetry rather than prose.

Quotes[edit]

Flame and char. Skin so terrible. Eyes like pits of blackness.

— A quote from the Iviad probably needs no reference notation, but this comes from line 482, should I need to locate it quickly.[1]
