Tl;dr I think the shard Honor will not be taken up by an individual, but by the United people of Roshar. I don't have a ton of specific textual evidence atm but I'm wondering if a shard could be held by more than one person, or something to that effect. Phrases like "honor is alive as long as he lives in the hearts of men" get a lot of emphasis in this book Jasnah and dalinar have a few convos and thoughts about decentralized power that feel a little sudden and out of place. It gives dalinars "unite them" command from honor a late game meaning: unite the peoples of Roshar to become the collective will behind honor. It will serve as an interesting point in the constant convos about what leadership is. And united roshar holding honor would make a perfect counterpoint to Tarvangian holding odium, and a way to fully refute his evil-utilitarian-dictator philosophy. What do yall think?

Alethi Architecture: what does it look like? Do we have any WOB or textual evidence on Alethi Architecture? Or do you have any opinions? I am thinking of doing a painting of Kholinar, as there doesnt appear to be any definitive fanart of it. I have found some descriptions of the windblades, their strata, and the ways that the walls of the city are built onto them. But I havent found any description of the actual architecture. small towns have the stormward slanted roofs, but the houses in kholinar shouldnt need that. We definitely know that its mostly stone. When Dalinar visits Thaylen city his descriptions of the columns and domes makes one picture greece, and the fact that this feels foreign to him kinda rules out a greco-roman look to kholinar. The sturdy, stone architecture of ancient Mesopotamia feels right if theres no evidence pointing anywhere else. reconstructions of Babylon or Assur and that kind of thing, but made grander and more fantastical .
