I realize this has be discussed in another thread, but this thread is the top search on Google for this topic, so, someone should probably post it. After Edgedancer, I think its likely that the Dysian hordelings, perhaps the one in Edgedancer, are writing the documents on the back cover copy. They check all the boxes. They're immortal, would remember the Heralds, and the Last Desolation, and the Dysian specifically mentions to Lift that they are watching the four surgebinders, and gives them the same titles as in the back cover copy of tWoK. The Assassin, the surgeon, the highprince, and the liar. The Dysian in Edgedancer may be in the city because he is actually watching Szeth.

Late to the party, I see. The real Taln would have to show up to Alethkar. As explained in Dalinar's visions, the Alethi were the Kingdom set aside for war, and Taln is the Herald of War. Each Herald has a specialty, and each of the Silver Kingdoms also had a specialty that matched a Herald, I would assume.

These are in their entirety.

I just recently read the text version, and was wondering if perhaps "Shella" is an oath/curse, but one said in awe, the way we might say "Sweet Jesus!" So, its also a name. Which led me to think it was very similar to "Shallan", and therefore "Shalash." Weren't some of the Heralds supposed to be from other Cosmere worlds? Perhaps there's a connection?
