He also considered [[Valam]]'s request for his bastard son to kill him cruel.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}
He is no scholar but is a full participant in the Diagram organization. He believes in the cause and is not afraid to speak his mind. {{book ref|sa3|122}} He is very supportive of the methods used by his organization to "save what they can" from [[Odium]], and considers themselves "the only victors of the day" when Taravangian is received in Jah Keved with cheers.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Mrall has a keen sense of awareness of his surroundings and experience commanding guards.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}} Though not a scholar, members of the Diagram take his opinions on their course of action into consideration.{{book ref|sa3|122}}

{{sidequote
Mrall accompanies Taravangian to [[Vedenar]] after the [[Jah Keved war of succession]] when Taravangian gains control of the [[Jah Keved|Veden]] throne.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}} When [[Szeth]] arrives to confront Taravangian, Mrall has his guards separate Taravangian from the Veden soldiers so Taravangian would not be associated with the Assassin in White. Mrall makes excuses, claiming the king is old and overcome with grief. Mrall then brings Taravangian to see [[Highprince]] [[Valam]] on his deathbed. Mrall thinks that it was cruel that Valam forced [[Redin]] to kill him.▼

▲Mrall
When the [[Alethi]] discovered [[Urithiru]], Mrall accompanied Taravangian and other key members of the Diagram as they took up residence in the tower city.{{book ref|sa3|107}} On a day of notable brilliance in Urithiru, Mrall had to revise his original restrictions on Taravangian, after [[Adrotagia]] realized he had cheated the test. Mrall was later disturbed to see that Taravangian had made changes to the [[Diagram (literature)|Diagram]].{{book ref|sa3|i|5}}

After [[Dalinar Kholin]] did not yield to Odium at the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], Mrall questioned the Diagram's accuracy, concerned that it might be flawed. Prior to Taravangian's meeting with Odium, he suggested drafting a change of plan.{{book ref|sa3|122}}
When Taravangian left Urithiru to go with the Coalition’s forces in [[Emul]], planning to betray them and be captured, Mrall was greatly saddened. He wept openly as Taravangian prepared to leave, and didn't like that Taravangian was separating himself from the Diagram and disbanding the group. Mrall didn't want to abandon Taravangian to his fate, and felt that Taravangian's life was being thrown away. Taravangian explained his reasoning briefly, and Mrall bid him farewell with a firm handshake and a hug.{{book ref|sa4|i|3}}

He is the one to decide what tasks he would be allowed to do without supervision, based on daily tests and the elderly man's behavior.{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}{{book ref|sa3|i|5}}
