kraefzke Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Do we actually know that Odium splintered Honor? I cannot really remember. I was just thinking that maybe the Heralds walking away from their oaths did it - or at least weakened him in a way that allowed Odium to kill him. This is based on what happens to spren when their KR break their oaths and on Honor musing that the spren created the KR in a way similar to how he created the Heralds. It stands to reason that Heralds breaking their oaths would have some negative effect on the shard...thoughts? 1
Swimmingly he/him Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Hmmmm... You may be on to something, but I'm almost certain that it's not the whole story. Something seems off about that to me, but I can't figure out what.
Argent he/him Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 In The Way of Kings, Dalinar's final vision has the Almighty tell him "Odium has killed me." Given the circumstances, I am willing to give some authority to the guy who got murdered when he is talking about who killed him. 1
Swimmingly he/him Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Of course, that might just mean that Odium influenced the Heralds somehow, making the Heralds the tool and Odium the wielder.

Thanks for the quote, I hadn't been sure anymore and no time to look it up. However, as I said, it could be that the Heralds walking away weakened Honor to a degree that made the killing possible in the first place. Edited March 17, 2014 by kraefzke
