He has some knowledge of military strategy in western [[Roshar]], but is less informed regarding war in and around Alethkar. He displays curiosity about the ways in which they wage war, being particularly impressed with the use of [[Soulcaster]]s.

Iri's royal line did not have any blood relation to Toh and Evi, further weakening their claim.{{book ref|sa3|16}}
For some time, Toh lived
