Oathbringer	comment	WARNING: Late Arrival Spoilers abound for previous books in The Stormlight Archive.Oathbringer is the third book in Brandon Sanderson's Epic Fantasy series The Stormlight Archive, taking place on the world of Roshar, characterized by its Hostile Weather and Giant Enemy Crabs. Just as previous books focused on Kaladin and Shallan, Oathbringer centers around Dalinar Kholin, Highprince of War for Alethkar, as well as leader of the reborn Knights Radiant and a member of the Order of Bondsmiths.At the end of Words of Radiance, the Parshendi became Voidbringers and summoned the Everstorm, an evil highstorm that blows the wrong way. Kaladin and Shallan revealed their Surgebinding abilities and opened the way to Urithiru, fabled city of the Radiants. Once there, Dalinar bound the Stormfather himself as his spren, and Renarin revealed himself to be a Truthwatcher. Realizing that the parshmen in his home village would soon become Voidbringers, Kaladin flew off to warn his family, while everyone else remained behind to explore the city.Despite traveling hundreds of miles in half a day, Kaladin runs out of Stormlight before he reaches home, and has to walk the rest of the way, resulting in the Everstorm arriving before him. Just as he is giving up hope of anyone having survived, some soldiers in the manor spot him and pull him inside.Meanwhile, Jasnah (having survived the attack on the Wind's Pleasure by teleporting to Shadesmar) has returned to the Physical Realm to find Hoid, the King's Wit, waiting for her. He cheerily tells her that Shallan did her job for her, before they begin the long walk back to civilization together.And Szeth-son-Neturo, formerly the Assassin in White, has been inducted into the Skybreaker Order by Nalan'Elin, Herald of Justice himself. Nale tells him that he should never have been made Truthless, but praises him for holding to his ideals regardless. Now, it is time to return to punish the Shin for their crimes. To that end, the Herald has a new sword for him, a black Shardblade with a metal sheath."Hello. Would you like to destroy some evil today?"

To fight directly might coax out forces that can hurt him, and as previous experiences can apparently attest, those kinds of scars don't fade. Thus, if provoked the right way, he will assign a champion to fight in his stead, since that way he only loses time, which he has plenty of.

They weren't intended to serve as historical records, but Honor had infused them with so many valuable details from the past and enough interactivity to tease out some lost secrets of history that Dalinar and later Navani and Jasnah use them to learn a great deal about the ancient and mythological past. Nor were they supposed to be used as a mechanism for video calls. Eventually the Stormfather just allows Dalinar to use the visions as direct mechanisms to contact other people, and in Rhythm of War the vision is used to let Kaladin talk with Tien in the Spiritual Realm to get closure for his death.

Oathbringer / int_28b2f93a	type	Slavery Is a Special Kind of Evil
Oathbringer / int_28b2f93a	comment	Slavery Is a Special Kind of Evil: The parshmen, after they've regained their minds, are rightfully angry about how mankind has treated them, and Kaladin, a former slave himself, has more than a little sympathy for them. Perhaps because of this, the humans enslaved by the singers are treated surprisingly well. They are given shelter and clothing, freedom to roam when they're not working, and can choose what type of work they want to do—they can even choose not to work at all, though they don't get food in that case. They are also careful not to work their slaves to exhaustion and excuse slaves who are simply too weak to do the job (though they keep an eye out for slaves just pretending to be too weak to do the job) and keep them well-equipped as necessary. It's a stark contrast to the way humans treat their slaves. There's an argument to be made that technically the humans aren't slaves at all, just ordinary laborers. Averted with just about every other character though. Most humans, and virtually all lighteyes, see nothing inherently wrong with slavery, although many do disapprove of masters mistreating their slaves, and the Vorin religion proscribes penalties for mistreating slaves. At least a few of the main characters technically own slaves themselves, although it's fairly easy for the reader not to notice this. The fact that Vorin priests are also slaves owned by their highprinces goes a long way to explain why this is considered socially acceptable.

Oathbringer / int_2ddddebf	comment	Hostile Weather: The Everstorm is a new one, the Voidbringer storm to counter Honor's highstorm. Not only does it blow from west to east (devastating towns and cities designed for the opposite direction), it doesn't carry Stormlight for Radiants to use. Dalinar notes that it seems to be more intelligent than the highstorms; while it's a bit weaker, it seems to focus its destruction on undefended small towns, and alters its properties for maximum damage. On the plus side, it's more regular than a highstorm, appearing every nine days. It appears in Thaylen City only five days into its cycle near the climax to deliberately coincide with a Voidbringer attack on the city. Its previous passes through seemed to be more deliberately damaging to the city than all other areas. Talenel's temple, in particular, seems to have been targeted rather violently in retaliation for how long he delayed the Desolation.

Oathbringer / int_4832a3bb	type	Always Chaotic Evil
Oathbringer / int_4832a3bb	comment	Always Chaotic Evil: Played with. Subverted with the transformed parshmen. Everyone assumed that each and every one of them would become possessed by a Voidspren when exposed to the Everstorm, but instead most of them were simply healed of their broken Connection and Identity and given a random form. Many wouldn't even be fighting humanity if not for the Fused. On the other hand, the Fused are entirely unredeemable and desire nothing but killing every living human on Roshar no matter the cost—and they aren't particularly concerned about helping the parshmen, either. The fact that they are the souls of ancient parshmen, given the power to possess their descendants by Odium, a god of hate, growing more insane every time they are resurrected, is certainly part of it. The Unmade are an entirely different kettle of fish altogether due to their borderline Eldritch Abomination nature. Re-Shephir just wants to understand humanity, but, thanks to Odium's influence, tries to do so by being a Copycat Killer. Sja-anat claims to want to help the Radiants, and her corrupted spren don't seem inherently malicious, especially the one that bonded to Renarin by mistake. Nergaoul may be responsible for the Thrill, but he doesn't hate, and simply loves fighting, and wants to share that love with everyone else. Yelig-Nar is the only Unmade we encounter in this book who is both intelligent and unambiguously on Odium's side.

If a Fused dies, they will take the body of a living parshman during the next Everstorm, killing the parshman in the process. Among spren, no one seems to like cryptics.

While deceiving Dalinar during a parley, the outmatched Thanalan the Younger manages to achieve enormously generous terms of surrender. Dalinar agrees to let him join the Alethi alliance as a highlord, possibly even a highprince, and to not only save face and be seen as a cunning hero for having only pretended to rebel in order to ferret out traitors, but also to end his rebellion bloodlessly, saving his people and city. Unfortunately, Thanalan throws this all away just for a chance to kill the man who slew his father in battle, and the consequences for all involved are tragic. He had a perfectly good lifeline and could have enjoyed a high place in the world, but just couldn't help screwing himself over for revenge. Although it all revolved around him revealing the traitor Highprince who helped him and sustained the rebellion, something that it looks like was a deception in the first place. He was unlikely to keep that good deal after that.

It was actually written by Dalinar, after he asked Navani to teach him to read. Eshonai was set up to be the first Parshendi Radiant, but it ends up being her sister Venli, bonding to a lightspren called Timbre, since Eshonai died in the first Everstorm. Dalinar was ready to fight Odium's champion, only for it to turn out that Odium had chosen him as his champion.

Taravangian also managed to get a Radiant on his side, which makes him look even better - however, she is a Dustbringer and their spren are mostly interested in smashing things (and still mad at the old Radiants). Amaram is promoted to Highprince of the Sadeas Princedom in part due to the fact that he has the respect of the soldiers. The little detail about him being a thief and a murderer is swept under the rug, despite Dalinar's annoyance. Amaram insists that they can put him on trial after the Desolation.

The recruits are told to hunt down the prisoners and bring them back dead or alive; the test proctors already have received writs of execution for all of them. Szeth realizes that the reason the prisoners were able to escape was because the prison was of shoddy construction with only one guard—the warden had been spending the absolute minimum amount of money and pocketing the rest. Szeth asks if he's allowed to execute the warden. The proctors tell him his writ of execution was the first one they received.

Oathbringer / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: As with any Sanderson work, so much that literally the last 15% of the book is all of them coming home to roost. The story Shallan told Pattern about the girl who lived in a village surrounded by a wall. This turns to be based on how the ancient human settlers of Roshar were orginally confined to the area that would become Shinovar. Later, Wit continues the story from where Shallan leaves off. When the girl left, she discovered Stormlight, causing the start of Highstorms and essentially beginning the war against the Voidbringers. Early in the flashback, Sadeas mentions how he doubts even a rockslide could kill Dalinar. He turns out to be very right. The Dawnchant. Chanting is done in rhythm, foreshadowing that it was originally part of the language of the parshmen. Meta-wise and in-universe, the explicit mention there's only one Perpendicularity in Roshar despite there being 2 Shards, and that it belongs to Cultivation. Honor's Perpendicularity is part of the climax, and has many implicaitons both in and out of universe. Zahel's literally colorful metaphors and the sword kata he taught Adolin and Kaladin. It not only immediately singles out a new character as not only a worldhopper, but also hints heavily that Vivenna isn't dead as has been hinted. Dalinar's memories, interspersed with present-day chapters. A flashback chapter ends with Dalinar making a tentative plan for peace with Rathalas and leading a force of Elites to investigate the supposed traitorous caravan. The name of the next chapter? Rockfall - the lighteyes manor house that Veil and her team robs in the present day. Humanity's lack of resemblance to native Rosharan life, as the Stormfather lampshades. Wit hinted at it even earlier in the series, when he pointed out that humans have an animal called an axehound, even though they don't know what a hound is. The fact that Odium can manifest an appearance to Dalinar. By way of Mistborn, we know that Shards cannot be perceived by people who don't have a Connection to them. The fact that Dalinar can shows he has such a Connection to Odium, making him compatible to Odium's power, and vulnerable to possession by Odiumspren the way Sadeas' army is. Played with in the depiction of Odium's champion and its nine shadows. Dalinar WAS chosen by Odium to be his champion, but that doesn't mean Odium got him. When he went to battle with Odium, it was with nine companions; seven Knights Radiant whose powers are still shadows of what they could be, and two Heralds who are mere shadows of their former selves. The conversation between Adolin and Azure, when she says that sometimes the best way to fulfil a duty is to let someone else do it. Adolin at first finds this unthinkable, but later on he decides to let Jasnah take the throne of Kholinar, because he knows she will be much better at it. As everyone prepares for the climactic battle, Dalinar goes out to survey the fortifications of Thaylen City. Meridas Amaram has been personally been preparing them, and when Dalinar speaks to him about them, Amaram remarks that he admires Dalinar for their plan to know the enemy's defenses. Dalinar reprimands Amaram for this, believing Amaram to be one of the people who believe Dalinar is trying to conquer the world for Alethkar. It's actually because Amaram is now on Odium's payroll and has been informed that Dalinar is to become Odium's champion, so he believes Dalinar is organizing the defense specifically to take advantage of intentional weaknesses when Odium's army attacks. When discussing Amaram, Adolin says that he used to see him as a model soldier who didn't care for petty politics, and Shallan wonders why soldiers who don't care what they're fighting for would be a good thing. It turns out that Dalinar was just like that in his youth, and was worse than Shallan could imagine before becoming The Atoner.

In fact, Sadeas boasted about doing just that, which is why Adolin killed him.

This alerts Dalinar Kholin to the fact that the ruby must be important, so he sends Lift to get it back. Also, without gemstones strewn all around after the Reserve has been destroyed, Radiants would not have so much Stormlight to use, especially Kaladin, while fighting the Fused and Amaram on the field outside Thaylen. He also gives Dalinar the encouragement he needs to fight off being chosen as Odium's own champion.

The Emuli are amenable to an alliance while the Tukari are not, which Navani is fine with since the Tukari are crazy. Many of the Fused are insane after their repeated resurrections. The sane ones are automatically in charge, since despite his talk of passion, Odium needs people who can actually follow orders. An army in thrall to the Thrill is tireless and fearless, but also so battle-crazed they'll fight an endlessly respawning army of illusions without caring it's pointless.

Acting the part of a Folk Hero by stealing from the rich and giving to the poor sounds good in theory, but if you do it openly, whatever you give to the poor will quickly be stolen from them in turn by the local criminals. The entire War of Reckoning and the massive loss of life involved is retroactively revealed to be this in the prologue. The reason that the Parshendi assassinated King Gavilar and sparked the war in the first place was to prevent him from causing the return of their ancient gods, bet they themselves eventually caused the return by adopting Stormform out of desperation to survive when the Alethi threatened to wipe them out in retaliation for killing Gavilar. At most, the war managed to delay the True Desolation by a few years.

Kaladin consistently respects the fact Shallan and Adolin are a couple and moves on with his life despite Syl's repeated attempts to play matchmaker.

There is no undoing what he's done, but that doesn't give him the excuse to continue doing wrong either.

Oathbringer / int_e905c892	comment	The Heretic: The ardents really, really aren't happy with Dalinar's visions. They can live with the ones about the Knights Radiant in their glory days, but then there's the part about the Almighty being dead. Dalinar tries to point out that if the Almighty is dead then obviously he was never really God and there must be something beyond him, but that really doesn't help. And then Dalinar marries Navani in a ceremony officiated by the Stormfather, which is either kinda silly or horrific blasphemy. They eventually outright excommunicate him.

Oathbringer / int_e993da98	comment	Equal-Opportunity Evil: Zigzagged. The Fused, who are at the top of the pyramid, often have contempt for regular parshmen and treat them as lessers — or worse, potential vessels to be hijacked by other Fused. The rank-and-file Voidbringers treat most humans with more or less the same courtesy they were treated themselves: put to work doing manual labour, but keep well fed enough to keep going. That said, exceptions exist. Leshwi, a prominent Fused who was bested by Moash, develops a fondness for him and eventually has him sworn in as a Parshendi-aligned Shardbearer. Odium himself has always been willing to accept alliances and personal allegiances regardless of race or geography, but one of his goals is still to wipe out humanity.

Oathbringer / int_e9e35e8f	comment	Exact Words: When the Alethi finally get a hold of Azir, the Azir claim that their Oathgate doesn't work, and even send an affidavit to prove it. Navani is amused to note that the affidavit basically just says that the Oathgate isn't turned on, not that it's broken. Taravangian's plan hinges on one of these: he will make a bargain with Odium in which Odium agrees to spare the people Taravangian rules, then Taravangian will become ruler of the entire world. Everyone will be ruled over by Taravangian, and thus spared by the terms of the agreement. Unfortunately for nearly everyone on Roshar, Odium sees right through the trick, being smart enough to only approach him on a day where he's less intelligent and read the Diagram first, and agrees only to spare Kharbranth, anyone born in Kharbranth, and their spouses. Szeth exploits the loopholes in the rules during his Skybreaker training. The rules of the second test clearly state that points will be deducted based on the amount of times a squire's clothing had been hit by colored powder. Szeth was the ONLY one to realize that the rules never said anything about the powder needing to REMAIN on their clothes. He wins after washing his clothes and rules lawyering his way out of the objections of the other squires.

Gavilar seems to intentionally avoid comparisons since the Sunmaker eventually overreached and fell trying to expand his empire. Unfortunately, this lack of legitimacy came back to bite them by the War of Reckoning, since none of the Highprinces saw the need to follow someone who hadn't personally beaten them into line.

His companion uses a knife to draw some blood and flick it at the illusions. The blood sticks to Adolin, who was hiding among them, and he's immediately made out.

Oathbringer / int_f0864fd9	comment	Combat by Champion: The idea of defeating Odium's champion is brought up again. The Stormfather explains that the reason Odium would agree to such a binding duel is because fighting directly could actually harm him, while using a champion and losing costs him only time. Time is nothing to a Shard, but it's everything to mortals. Dalinar is a little embarrassed to realize that he was assuming he'd be the one to duel the champion, when it would be more logical to let a younger Radiant such as Kaladin do it. Odium agrees with Dalinar's assumption. Just not with him fighting for the side Dalinar thought he would. Thankfully Dalinar disagrees with this idea vehemently.

Szeth is also accepted as one of Dalinar's Radiants — his personal bodyguard, even — with basically no resistance despite being perhaps the most famous and prolific assassin in the world. Mostly because the Radiants REALLY needed help at the time and were in no position to demand an explanation or turn down his help. Taln, to Ash's surprise, not only forgives the other Heralds for leaving him in Damnation for four and a half thousand years, but is excited to find out how long he was abandoned since it prevented the Desolations from coming and gave humanity a chance to thrive.

Oathbringer / int_f909b16b	comment	Dark Secret: The secret that broke the old Knights Radiant is brought up again. The Stormfather knows it, but refuses to share it. The truth is that humans were the first Voidbringers. They arrived on Roshar as refugees after their homeworld (confirmed by the author to be Ashyn, the first planet in the Rosharan system) was destroyed and rendered uninhabitable by Surgebinding to coexist beside the parshmen, but they grew greedy and tried to take everything for themselves. At first, whenever the Knights discovered this, Honor was able to calm them down and convince them to keep fighting. But by the time of the Recreance, he was dying and half-mad, so talking to him only made things worse.

Adolin gets wounded in the gut and Kaladin runs out of Stormlight while failing to say the Fourth Ideal. Odium used Nergaoul to turn the entire Alethi army at Thaylen City onto the city, with the Thrill turned up to eleven. Amaram has joined up with Odium. Jasnah is convinced Renarin betrayed them to Odium and is about to kill him. Renarin knows this as he saw a foretelling on this. Someone steals the Windrunner Honorblade, killing and wounding Bridge Four people in the process. And then Odium's forces from Kholinar attack Urithiru through the Oathgate. Nale and the Skybreakers decide that the 'Law' supports the Voidbringers and make a group-wide Faceâ€“Heel Turn. Odium is giving a Breaking Speech to Dalinar, convincing him to become his Champion. And Lift is out of food.
