Humans pre vs post- Shattering? [Spoilers: AU]

[treblkickd]

This a quick question following up on Khriss' intro to the Scadrian system in Arcanum Unbound. Specifically, she writes that Scadrial is one of two places in the Cosmere where humankind does not predate the arrival of shards. Do we know what the other places is? Is the second such place just Silverlight, or is there a second planet where humanity arrived with its shard(s)?

Come to think of it, are we just being dumb and forgetting about Yolen?

Could be Roshar. The Parshendi are to be originally of Cultivation and we know that the Parshendi predate the humans on Roshar.

Humanity on Roshar predates the Shattering too.

There was intermixing long ago. Horneaters and Herdazians are both a result. (Signs of this are the stone carapace on Herdazian fingernails and the Horneater extra jaw pieces--in the back of the mouth--for breaking shells.)

Humans and Parshmen don't have a common ancestor. And as a side note, both of these strains of humanoids predate the ascension of Honor, Cultivation, and Odium.

Could be Roshar. The Parshendi are not originally of Cultivation and Odium (but implies that they are now) and we know that the Parshendi predate the humans on Roshar.  

 

WoB suggests that Adonalisum (or at least not H/C/O) created the Parshendi.

QUESTION

My brother asked a question about my cousin's theory on parshendi (I don't remember exactly what the question was)

BRANDON SANDERSON

Brandon said that the parshendi were created to be part of the Rosharian ecosystem.

I'm almost certain the second shard to create life was Endowment on Nalthis, but I can't find any sources saying such. I'm scouring the WoB collection right now and will edit if I find something.

I was rather certain that it was the opposite, but the only WoB I can find implies, but does not confirm.

Did people exist on Nalthis prior to Endowment's arrival there?

Some planets had people before the shattering.

I got the feeling that this gives you the better odds of being right. Usually when he gives an ambiguous answer like that, there's a catch. I haven't found any WoB's that confirm the other planet. If it isn't Nalthis, my best educated guest would be a shardworld we haven't seen yet and that's why Brandon didn't commit to an outright answer.

Ok, so it's sounds like we don't really have a good sense for what other place/planet Khriss was referring to there. Similar to Kered above, my first thought was that Nalthis was the second planet where humans did not exist pre-shattering, but I was not able to come up with any hard evidence to support that idea.
