Auger Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) In the chapter where Moash first enters the slave camps, he asks about the parshman slaves - to which the Fused replies that they "harboured a false god" into the camp, and were punished for this reason. What do you think this "False God" is/was? Edited May 2, 2018 by Auger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Govir Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 Most likely it was Syl, since she is of Honor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed it was Kaladin, being a Radiant, since the humans brought Odium with them when they first came to Roshar, which implies Honour and Cultivation were the Fused's gods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calderis Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 It was Kaladin. The Fused are their "Gods" so it makes sense that they would refer to humans with powers in a similar manner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandering Investor Posted May 2, 2018 Report Share Posted May 2, 2018 The souls of the ancient dawnsigners are more akin to spren than humans. Additionally, the souls of the ancient dawnsingers are so fused with Odium's power that they could be considered little parts of him, while the radiant spren are pieces of honor and cultivation. So they could be referring to Syl. Or they may equate a Radiant(spren/human) with Fused(voidbringer/dawnsinger) and consider both gods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to re-read the section, but according to the OP it was the Fused who were saying "they harbored a false god". If it was the Fused who said this, I doubt that the Fused are the "actual" gods to them, and therefore they're referring to Spren in general as false gods and Syl specifically in this case. In any event, it was definitely either Kaladin or Syl they were referring to. Maybe even both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calderis Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) It was a regular singer who told that to Moash, not one of the Fused. She then immediately refers to one of the Fused as their gods. Quote He didn’t actually expect an answer. But the parshwoman followed his gaze, then shook her head. “They harbored a false god. Brought him into the very center among us.” “The Almighty?” She laughed. “A real false god, a living one. Like our living gods.” She looked up as one of the Fused passed overhead. In context, I definitely believe that is in reference to Kaladin. Edited May 3, 2018 by Calderis 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
