** '''Answer''': No. His group is called the Diagram.
 
* Wait, Nalan is Darkness? http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/6698-missing-honorblade/ what evidence do we have for that? It seems that his description is enough.
** '''Answer''': It seems that his description is enough. Later books we know that for sure.
 
* why would the diagram send the asssassinSzeth to kill Dalinar and then a small group to kill the king? Why not the assassinSzeth for both? The small group was going to even blame it on the assassin. Groups have freedom to do what they want. And that group thought they had read and understood the plan, that it would be best served by killing the king. They were not doing it on the direction of Taravangian.

* Odium can affect people like Ruin did. How?
* Odium can affect people like Ruin did. How?* '''AAnswer:''' He can affect the Parsendi when they take on the stormspren, because those spren have a hole in them like what is caused by the spikes. But Ruin could also just push the people a bit, as could Preservation. But they could only do that because they created the people. Odium can affect people also, but has to do it through the unmade. (WoB: Can Odium influence people the same way that Ruin can?... etc [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20500-orem-library-signing-on-december-6/?p=204063 orem signing 2014])

* Dalinar did not have an Honorblade, because the stormfather called it an abomination, and I don’t think you have to bond with an HonorBlade. So either the Stormfather lied, or Taln is not Taln, the Herald? Because a Herald would not have an dead-spren ShardBlade. (WoB: Q: At the very end of WoR, Dalinar touches a Shardblade and it screams at him. Should that particular Blade have been safe? A: No, it should not have. It's a clue that something has happened. There are other clues that something is wrong with what the story you've been told is.)
** '''Answer''': Someone swapped blades.

* What is Elsecalling?
* What is Elsecalling? (WoB: Q: Is Jasnah still alive at the end of the book, since the whole scene where she kind of appears… A: Yes, she is. Q: Why does she take so long to come back? A: Because Elsecalling is not precise even if you know exactly what you're doing, which she doesn't.) This is the ability to drop into the Cognitive Realm.

** There was another WOB where he says she should know how to get back, but she has not figured that out yet.
 
* Three different types of Shardblades: (WoB: You have seen three different kinds in WoK: http://www.theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=977#108)
* Three different types of Shardblades: (WoB: You have seen three different kinds in WoK: http://www.theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=977#108) 1) Honorblades, held by the 10 Heralds. Each can grant a power to those that bind with it. They are not made from Spren, they were made by Honor, and probably have a bit of his power. They are currently in the hands of the Shin, hidden and protected by them, except the 3 out in the world. 2) Standard Shardblades, two types, Live and dead, held by the Knights and given up. They are made by Spren, are actually spren in the physical realm. The blades remain even after the oaths were broken, but as dead spren, bonded to the live heart-beats of the wielder. 3) Nightblood, made on another planet (read Warbreaker), somehow in the hands of Nalan the Herald of Justice, and given to Szeth (I dont know if this is quite complete... because B said three different types where in WoK, so Nightblood would not be counted. If not, maybe just Live and Dead sprenblades are two different kinds)... (WoB: Nightblood is a very unique kind of Shardblade, but IS a Shardblade. https://www.goodreads.com/author/38550.Brandon_Sanderson/questions) Even though Nightblood is not in WoK, I believe Brandon meant this: Honor Blades, Spren Blades. And Nightblood. [http://www.theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=1084#15]
** Answer: Either Honorblades, Live blades and dead blades, - OR - Honorblades, Radient blades, and Created blades like Nighblood.

* I am not sure about the reason the Final Desolation is coming, It seems circular. The Final Desolation is going to be caused by the Parshendi turning into voidbringers, but that is happening because they saw surgebinders returning, but the spren are binding with men again because they sense the Final Desolation is coming.
