Taldain is a planet of the cosmere upon which the story of White Sand is set.

Taldain are divided into two parts: the Dayside, whose inhabitants can animate sand and make it attack and defend as needed, and the Darkside, whose inhabitants their own unique abilities and must wear dark lenses when visiting the Dayside. [1]

A brilliant, new fantasy world, White Sand is split into two halves: on one side are the Daysiders, and on the other the Darksiders. Daysiders have a unique ability to control and manipulate sand, bending it to their will to attack, or protect, as they wish. Darksiders have their own unique abilities and culture, and must wear thick dark lenses while on the Dayside. Generally speaking, Daysiders and Darksiders do not get along...and White Sand follows the adventures of one particular Daysider, a boy named Kenton.


It has been confirmed that the Shard Bavadin resides on Taldain.[2]
