The deity worshipped across Roshar, chiefly by the Vorin faith, whose power is the Shard Honor, held by Tanavast. Odium killed Tanavast long ago, after the Oathpact broke, though his dying is described as protracted. His Heralds were meant to guard humanity. Dalinar later suspects he was never truly God at all.
