| Someone should have warned me how fun this would be. I’d have tried way harder to land the job.
Having access to a Radiant Shardblade, Malata was often given the responsibility of opening [[Oathgate]]s for members of the coalition. Malata accepted this role obediently, although she once expressed distrust against the Alethi and was apparently skeptical of the claims regarding the [[Desolation]].{{book ref|sa3|27}}
The Diagram later decided that Taravangian must replace Dalinar as leader of the coalition, and had Malata spy on the Blackthorn using Spark.{{book ref|sa3|i|5}} Through this, they learned about Dalinar's visions where he talked to [[Odium]]. They used the information about these visions, along with other secrets they discovered, to undermine the coalition's trust in Dalinar.{{book ref|sa3|111}}
Later on, while the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]] was taking place, Malata opened Kholinar's [[Oathgate]] upon orders from the Diagram to allow a strike force of Odium's [[singer]] army into Urithiru, where they battled with Alethi soldiers. An agent of the Diagram disguised as a [[Bridge Four]] member was also able to enter Urithiru and steal [[Jezrien]]'s [[Honorblade]] from [[Eth]], killing him and injuring [[Rock]] and [[Bisig]] in the process. All this was part of Taravangian's plan to appeal to Odium so that he would agree to sparing part of humanity on Roshar.{{book ref|sa3|i|14}}{{book ref|sa3|120}}{{book ref|sa3|122}}
