I have not seen anything posted about this, and I'm new to the forums so sorry if this is a repeat.
Elhokar claims that he see's assassins in the shadows, and at first i though it was nothing, but when i was rereading The Way of Kings i came across this part "They watch me. Always. Waiting. I see their faces in mirrors. Symbols, twisted, inhuman...". This is said by Elhokar on page 826 in the hardcover version. And this made me think of the things that Shallan saw that had symbols instead of heads.
Is he seeing the same spren that Shallan saw in her drawings? Has he also bonded spren as well? I just wanted to get your thoughts.
Once again this is my first post so I'm sorry if I messed up.
