== History ==
At some point after creating the Diagram, King Taravangian formed and managed a project to have some Diagram members attempt to bond a spren.{{book ref|sa3|107}} Malata was supposedly a part of this project, although she claims to have approached Taravangian only because Spark, her spren, suggested that they go to Urithiru, implying that she was already bonded prior to joining Taravangian's team.
She arrives to [[Urithiru]] with [[Taravangian]], using her Spark to unlock activate the Veden Oathgate.{{book ref|sa3|24}} Having access to a Radiant Shardblade, Malata was often given the responsibility of activating [[Oathgate]]s for members of Dalinar's coalition.
Upon deciding that Dalinar's secrets must be used against him, the Diagram had Malata spy on Dalinar 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 Jah Keved's [[Oathgate]] on orders from the Diagram to allow a strike force of Odium's army into Urithiru, where they battled with Alethi soldiers. An agent of the Diagram disguised as a [[Bridge Four]] member also went to Urithiru and stole [[Jezrien]]'s [[Honorblade]] from [[Eth]], killing him and injuring [[Rock]] and [[Bisig]] in the process. This was part of Taravangian's plan to appeal to Odium so that he would spare part of humanity.{{book ref|sa3|i|14}}{{book ref|sa3|107}}
