|Kalak to [[Sekeir]]{{book ref|sa4|82}}
}}
 
Though Kalak chose to live in the honorspren capital, the relation between him and them is not friendly. The honorspren respect him and his judgements, calling him the High Judge and addressing him as the Holy One.{{book ref|sa4|78}}{{book ref|sa3|87}} However, they are also aware that he is not entirely there, and are willing to have him arrested against his will if he does not fall in line with what they -- and particularly Sekeir -- want.{{book ref|sa4|97}} They respect his judgements, but at the same time, they know that with how indecisive he is, the public opinion is what truly shapes the outcome. It's unclear if they'd still follow his judgements, where he to make a choice they did not agree with.{{book ref|sa4|82}}
 
In turn, Kalak seems incredibly dismissive of his duty as the High Judge. He initially arrived at Lasting Integrity hoping that the honorspren would assist him with getting off-world, and their failure to do so frustrates him.{{book ref|sa4|82}} He does, however, have a clear understanding of their internal conflicts and politics, enough so to realize what Adolin's trial is truly about.{{book ref|sa4|87}}
 
=== Other Heralds ===
Kalak, like many other [[Herald]]s, has a deep respect for [[Jezrien]], treating him as the unquestionable leader even when he knows Jezrien is just as tired of the war as the others are. The idea that Jezrien himself might be breaking terrifies him.{{book ref|sa|part=prologue}} Unlike [[Nale]], Kelek keeps that respect even thousands of years later, afer Jezrien has been reduced to a homeless drunk. He is incensed at [[Szeth]] using Jezrien's [[Honorblade]], and quickly investigates what happened to Jezrien after his passing.{{book ref|sa2|part=prologue}}{{epigraph ref|sa4|79}}
(nale, jezrien, taln)
 
Kalak and Nale seem to keep together when both are in the [[Physical Realm]]. Both were present for [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]]'s capture, and centuries later, both were present at the [[assassination of Gavilar Kholin]], though they don't seem to have witnessed the event itself.{{book ref|sa4|24}}{{book ref|sa4|prologue}} In the present times, Kalak seems rather scared of going along with Nale, while Nale bullies him to keep quiet and stop annoying him.{{book ref|sa2|prologue}}{{book ref|sa4|prologue}}
 
He considers [[Taln]] to be the best of them all. At Aharietiam, he was ashamed to leave him behind. During the [[True Desolation]], he bemoans the fact that even someone like this could break.{{book ref|sa4|97}}
