I think he formed a bond with a spren, just the spren itself wasn’t seen „on screen”. After all, we can’t be sure when exactly Szeth swore the Ideal, it could be while talking to Nale but didn’t have to (for me it sounded more like Szeth just telling him what’s he going to do not swearing actually), it could be when he told Dalinar that he’s going to serve him or somewhere in between. Anyway after that we don’t have that much Szeth’s POV and he’s kind of occupied with the battle so I guess he just met the spren after the battle or something like that. That’s just the simplest explenation of the situation and the simplest is usually the most plausible one. However, it’s kind of weird that his spren wasn’t shown, as it could be just adresem as being there without thinking the pacing that much and it would be believable why it wouldn’t have a talk with Szeth or something like that as there was a battle going on. So maybe there is more to that, something we’ll learn through WoB or in the next book (it’s supposed to be about Szeth after all).

Hmmm... So it’s very probable that Restares is a leader now, but the question is was he also the leader when Gavilar was alive? Because if he wasn’t and Gavilar was that could be a motive Gavilar saw when he tried to guess who send the assasin.

I was recently thinking, do we know anything about the beginings of Sons of Honor? Or how Gavilar joined them, if he did? I’ve read somewhere that Restares is the leader of Sons of Honor, but is it based on anything?

When it comes to relationship between Shallan and Jasnah I think it’s also important that even though Shallan have grown and started to be independent and stuff she didn’t really progress as a scholar. And the whole point of wardship is that Shallan becomes a scholar. Sure maybe she’s quite a good Radiant ( which isn’t really true, I mean she’s good at Lightweaving but nothing else she has problems with Soulcasting and her sanity) but Jasnah is still her mentor when it comes to scholarship and she just acts upon it. Teacher cannot treat their students differently because they’re important people. I believe that if Shallan told her she doesn’t want to be a scholar anymore, Jasnah would be okay with finnishing her wardship and offered her to teach her Soulcasting. But Shallan is still her ward, so it’s normal that she vibes her typical tasks such as talking notes from a meeting ( and we can see that Shallan really needs to work on that).

It's a small detail, but I'm really glad that Adolin is acting normally and seemed happy during the wedding. After his chapter last week I was scared he's gonna be nervous and grumpy all the time. And if his father didn't notice something is off about him, then maybe he will be fine and he won't be a suspect.
