I think it's pretty unlikely any shard changes at the end of book 5 other than Honor being revived and taken up by someone who is not Taravangian. This is mainly because I dont think Todium is just going to be around in that form for one book and I think Cultivation is going to be very important in the back half with Lift being grown up so I don't think she changes yet either. In terms of Vengeance being the intent of Honor and Odium, I think that makes a lot of sense, at least more than war. The way I first read the light of those two being warlight was just that those two had been at war for so long that their rhythm on Roshar reflected their eternal war (probably related to connection in some way), not that this would be their combined intent. Especially considering I really doubt the cultivation+Honor intent would be 'Tower' based on their light being called that. Vengeance as representing holding to promises/oaths and 'God's divine hatred' combined makes a lot of sense to me. I do think it's unlikely the ending of book 5 involves the combination of shards, as Brandon already ended one series that way.
