Silvest

Heavily paraphrased from memory here. Can note name as 'jmcgit' since I've been using that on discord and reddit, and don't post here so often? If it matters I also had asked about what happens when a moment you're excited about doesn't really work out in the non-spoiler Q&A. I had phrased my question, is there anything more to learn about why Helaran was on the battlefield that day when Kaladin killed him? His response was Yes, but you already know the basics of that story... I walk through, Like it was definitely him on the battlefield, he was with the Skybreakers, his target was Amaram... He nods, and says the 'more information' is more about the Davar family in general. I had asked whether it was that Helaran was looking for Radiants, I had suspected maybe he would have struck at Amaram again if he was determined to kill him? Maybe he thought Amaram was a Radiant and taking the Shardblade disproved that? No, the Skybreakers knew about the Sons of Honor, they had a good opportunity to strike at the organization and they took it. Postscript: Moved on out of the line at that point. Presumably there wasn't another good opportunity after he became a Shardbearer. Kicking myself a bit for not asking one more follow-up, for comment on Kalak-Restares and Nale's relationship! Got my Mistborn era 2's signed with 'there's always another secret!' on Bands, plus WoK Leather v2. Also could have gushed more, but I had done a bit of that the day before in the non-question/personalization line and that's not me anyway! I was torn between asking about Helaran and asking about how Szeth's [attempted] murder of Taravangian impacts his oath to follow Dalinar's will, when Dalinar wanted him alive. Figured I'd ask the question of the resolved event as it's less likely to RAFO and might not make it into the books if it's meant to be resolved.
