An honorspren, called Syl, made by the Stormfather long before the Recreance. Her first knight died in his only battle and she survived the Recreance by losing herself. She later follows Kaladin in the guise of a windspren, bonds him as a Windrunner, nearly dies when his oaths break, and returns to claim him. She travels with him into Shadesmar, to Celebrant.
