Difference between revisions of "Odium"

A year later, Odium brought Dalinar into a vision and agreed to set the terms of their contest.{{book ref|sa4|112}} Although Odium's most important point was being able to leave Roshar--a restriction that Dalinar ''could'' have lifted, as the largest remnant of Honor's Investiture--Dalinar refused, deciding that since Honor had died to keep Odium in the system, that point would need to remain. At this point, Odium came very close to incinerating Dalinar, almost losing control of his Intent, but managed to keep his temper in check. After such points being raised as Odium's inability to stop the Fused from being reborn and Dalinar's inability to command the Radiants to follow Odium, they agreed that on the seventhtenth day of the new month<!--I'm not sure if this specific bit is accurate-->, they would each appoint a champion, and their champions would fight atop Urithiru, unhindered by either side, until one was dead. If Dalinar won, Odium would retreat to the kingdoms that he controlled at the time for one thousand years, but would cede control of Alethkar and [[Herdaz]] to Dalinar so that he could keep his oath to the [[Dieno|Mink]]. If Odium won, though, he personally would remain in the Roshar system, but would gain control of the kingdoms of the coalition--and Dalinar's soul, which would be turned into a [[Fused]] to begin Odium's forays throughout the cosmere.
