[[File: The Assassin in White by Ari Ibarra.jpg|thumb|right|<center><small>by [[Coppermind:Artists/Ari Ibarra|Ari Ibarra]]</small></center>Drawing [[Nightblood]]]]Szeth is given a sword by Nale, which he calls "sword-nimi". This sword, also known as [[Nightblood]], is sentient and can communicate with Szeth telepathically. Szeth is warned not to draw Nightblood except in case of extreme emergency and only if he carries a great deal of [[Stormlight]], as the sword is extremely dangerous and can feed upon souls.{{book ref|sa2|90}}
 
They have conversations often and Nightblood knows a good deal of information about Szeth's past. Szeth tells Nightblood he had another voice speak to him in his youth, and that he hopes this time it goes better{{book ref|sa3|92}}. Nightblood has no sense of time and speaks often of his creators and wielders such as [[Vivenna]], [[Shashara]], and [[Vasher]] even though Szeth has no idea who they are. Nightblood helps him decide which side to take.{{book ref|sa2|116}}
