The word Kelek, and the phrase "Kelek's Breath" were used profanely.
He was called '''Kelek''' in [[Vorinism]]{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} and according to the religion, he was associated with the Essence Foil and the Attributes Resolute and Builder. He was number Kak on the [[Ten Essences]] table. In [[Evi]]'s religion he is named '''Kellai'''.{{book ref|sa3|26}}
== Trivia ==
* Though his name became "Kelek" due to linguistic drift, Kalak is one of three Heralds, alongside [[Shalash]] and [[Pailiah]], whose names are symmetrical under [[Vorin]] rules.
* Kalak is one of the only three Heralds so far to have a viewpoint in ''[[The Stormlight Archive]]'', the others being Shalash and [[Taln]], as the Prelude is written from his perspective. However, unlike the other two, he isn't slated to have his own book.
