Hello there, i am new here and i need your help to solv a problem we (me and my gf) have. It´s about the Kaladin-Shallan-Relationship in Words of Radiance. The Situation: At the first meeting of Shallan and Kaladin, Kaladin thinks she is an imposter because the real Shallan has drowned. The Question: How did Kaladin knew this? The Problem: We can´t find a valid answer how Kaladin knew Shallan should have drowned. A few charpters earlier Navani mused that Jasna and Shallan hadn´t arrived yet because Jasna probably made another detour. There are no witnesses that have seen the ship sink. There are no other known survivers. We really don´t know how Kaladin got to this conclusion. Why is this important: This situation defines a lot over the early Shallan-Kaladin-Relationship and explains Kaladins distrust of Shallan .. Till now we have re-read Word of Radiance twice and bought the audible audiobook. I listent trought the audiobook twice now (45 hours), but i still can not find a valid answer how he came to this conclusion!! Sorry if this question was already answered or if there is a simpel paragraph that gives a good answer. We are no nativ-english-speakers, but we read and listen every Sandersons-Book in it´s o-tone. Too much of the athmosphere is lost in during the translation process .. . I have Oathbringer since the release. But i can´t get myself to really read the book because this question troubles me and i am stuck at Words of Radiance

On the back of Words of Radiance, there is this picture: http://coppermind.net/wiki/File:TWoK_Rear_Endsheet.jpg It's similar to the one on the front, which we know is the 10 types of surgebinding, the 10 orders, and the 10 heralds, so it's probably the parshendi's equivilant. My questions are: Who is the lady? She is where the heralds are on the front cover picture, but who is she? Is she Odium? Cultivation? A spren? What is the gem in the center? It it similar to the gems that Parshendi have in their beard? Could this be all of the Parshendi forms, and their spren?
