Shortly after, Ishar fled through another perpendicularity into [[Shadesmar]]. Sigzil and the others waited in the sky above the camp, then descended again when it seemed obvious that Ishar was not immediately coming back. They poked through the Herald's tent among several odd corpses covered in sheets, and Sigzil found a ledger detailing his experiments: records recounting how long each [[spren]] had lived in the body the Herald had created for it in the [[Physical Realm]]. Appalled, the group fled back their camp in Emul.{{book ref|sa4|111}}
 
=== Dawnshard and the Night Brigade ===
At an unknown point, Hoid offered a Dawnshard for the sake of the cosmere, which Sigzil accepted.{{book ref|tsm|10}} This put him on the radar of the Night Brigade, who began to hunt him down across the cosmere.{{book ref|tsm|10}}
 
Eventually, he gave the Dawnshard to somebody else, hoping that it would get the Night Brigade off his trail, but they continued to hunt him regardless. Thus he was forced to continue running from them for decades.{{cite}}
 
At some point, he came to an unnamed cavern planet on his run from the Night Brigade. During his stay, he stole a set of ragged clothes before Skipping away.{{book ref|tsm|9}}
 
=== Overthrowing the Cinder King ===
After his visit to the cavern world, he appeared on a planet known as [[Canticle]], dangerously low on Investiture and not knowing where he was.{{cite}}{{expand}}
 
== Relationships ==
 
=== Hoid ===
Sigzil has a very strained relationship with Hoid. Hating it for abandoning him when he became a slave at the Shattered Plains, doing nothing to help despite knowing how much he was suffering.{{book ref|tsm|10}} Despite his hatred of Hoid, he still agreed to take on the Dawnshard for him for the good of the cosmere.{{cite}} He also finds some degree of guidance in his teachings.{{book ref|sa2|41}}
 
Before his enslavement, they have a rather amicable relationship, traveling the world and learning about different cultures.{{cite}} Hoid often had to help get him out of trouble, like when he was arrested thrice in Babatharnam.{{book ref|sa1|46}}
