Difference between revisions of "Summary:Dawnshard"

Cord and Rysn discuss Cord's desire for [[Shards|Shardbearer|Shards]], and the political status of the [[Horneater Peaks]] in reference to the status of the war on [[Roshar]]. Cord acknowledges that [[Cultivation's Perpendicularity]] is going to become a major draw for forces both allied and malicious.

Nikli's outburst is cut short by the arrival of luckspren and Chiri-Chiri to the cavern. The [[larkin]] lands on the negotiating table and roars protectively. The revelation of the Dawnshard's bonding gives Rysn the leverage needed to turn the negotiation. The crew of the Wandersail is permitted safe return with information about Akinah in addition to the shardplate and Soulcasters found in the cavern. In return for their safety, Rysn vows to be the protector of the Dawnshard so that it is not in Akina when [[cosmere]] forces eventually come in search of it. The Sleepless agree to this plan under the condition that they be permitted to follow Rysn permanently. A two-layer cover story is created: it would be said publicly that the return of a larkin convinced the Sleepless to let the ship go; while the rulers of Roshar, particularly Navani and Queen Fen, would be told that the exchange included Sleepless remaining with Rysn as training on impersonating humanity.
