m (RoW chapter 27 epigraph says "where Ambition, Mercy, and Odium clashed—and Ambition was destroyed" implying the battle that Mercy was involved in was likely the one where Ambition was Splintered, not the earlier one mentioned in the AU Threnody essay where Ambition was "mortally wounded") Tag: Undo |

Mercy is a Shard of Adonalsium that has not been Splintered and whose Vessel is unknown.[1]
History[edit]
Mercy was created at the Shattering of Adonalsium and picked up by an unknown Vessel.[2] It is not known what Mercy did directly after their Ascension, or where they settled, if they settled at all.
Mercy was involved in a battle between Odium and Ambition, which resulted in a wound upon the Spiritual Realm and ultimately in Ambition's Splintering. This clash had profound effects on Threnody.[3]
Some time around the True Desolation, Harmony reached out to Mercy about the threat posed by Odium, at Hoid's request, but became troubled by Mercy as a result of their exchange.[1][4]
Trivia[edit]
- Before Aona's Shard was known (and well before it was known that Mercy is a Shard), fans speculated that its Intent might be Mercy.[5] It was later revealed Aona's Shard is Devotion.[6][7]
