It should also be noted that while on Braize, the Heralds share all pain. Any Herald on Braize being tortured, shared their pain with all the other Heralds on Braize. Also, if just one of them breaks...a desolation starts and they all are transported back to Roshar to prepare humanity for it. So not all of them have to tap out on Braize, just a single one. Taln, the man they left by himself, was the only Herald to never break. All the rest broke at some point, and started a Desolation. But not Taln. That's why when he was the only one in Braize, they decided to try and not follow him. However, this meant that Taln was enduring 10x more pain than any other Herald has ever endured, because there was no other Heralds on Braize to share the pain with.

Not to mention, they held off the desolations for hundreds of years at a time at first, then as they started to break, less and less time between desolations. The last ones had 2 years between I think. When it was just Taln by himself, he held it off for 4,500 years.

Yeah I thought they had made the choice despite Kalak not being there and Jezrein was simply waiting for him to show up.
So can we talk about how Taln held off the Fused for 4500 years, and then ran off and tell the humans to prepare. And when Shalash tried to apologize for leaving him, he *said that it was a good thing since now humans had time to develope, pretty much saying that he regrets nothing*

Correction - Honor didn’t find the 10 Heralds. The 10 Heralds approached him with the concept of the Oathpact and he agreed.
When I read the first few stormlight books I saw the depictions of the harolds as kind of similar soldiers with PTSD who even after their wars are over are tormented and tortured by what they had to do. They went in thinking what they were doing was righteous and noble but realized that what they had signed up for was an eternity of violence and nightmares.

What makes it so tragic is that they think they will be able to keep Roshar largely free of strife by taking on the burden but what really happens is the Heralds create a cycle of suffering that becomes more and more desperate and intense over time.

Lemme just address some things left out It is clear what they r tortured by in Braize. As far as I know, the heralds have to trap the spirits and entities of old in Braize and not let them get out, but the entities torture them to the point that the heralds have to flee braize, and when the heralds do leave braize, there is no one left to trap the entities there, so they escape and invade roshar again and the desolation starts anew
@CSPare_CChange

They aren't "Evil entities", they are the ancestors of the singers/listeners, who have been turned into cognitive shadows by Odium, when they die on Roshar, they get sent back to Braize as a cognitive shadow. They find the heralds, torture them until they break, boom new desolation. They aren't "evil", they think humans are evil since they kinda took over Roshar from the singers.

@@CSPare_CChange "if you haven't read them, why are you watching this video" Because this video is explicitly a spoiler free video. Someone who hasn't read the books would watch this video to see if the premise of the books interests them. Your question is basically the same as asking "if you haven't read the book, why are you looking at a review of the book". The fact that they haven't read it is precisely the reason they would be interested in a review, yet you're acting like the review is made for people who already like the series. That's not how reviews work.

My favorite thing about this series is how Brandon Sanderson finds interesting ways to bend the rules in Roshar's magic system. I'm thinking of Renarin and his spren, Lift and her stormlight, and Adolin's sharpblade. With that in mind, I have a theory that the heralds will be able to pass on their burden and find 10 new people to be heralds. Likely our current cast of characters.

I've been thinking the same about 10 new heralds. I wonder if Sanderson's plan all along has been to renew the oath pact in some way to save the world, but I don't think it will be a 1 to 1 correspondence. I think he's got something else in mind with fewer heralds or different forces bound by the pact.
@markchmielewski8495

I have a feeling that if Dalinar creates a new Oathpact, it will be easier for the Fused and the new Heralds. They won't be tortured on Braize, but maybe to some other planet to live in peace, or an eternal battle perhaps (same conflict, different planet - hopefully without other lives). Although, I don't know that Dalinar will get the chance to create the new Oathpact. Or if he does have the chance, he might not if he can make a deal with the fuzed to coexist on Roshar.
Definitely would love an even deeper dive into the heralds!

There seems to be two major events that happened thousands of years ago that brought us to where we are now in the story. One was the heralds decision mentioned in this video, and the other was something the listeners did that they were concerned Gavilar was going to undo.

Listeners vs singers. Listeners abandoned all gods, went into hiding, only had work form and mate form for a long time. Singers are the original inhabitants of Roshar, a portion of them were given powers by Odium, they are called the Fused. When a desolation ends and all fused are dead, there are still regular singers on Roshar. A few hundred years or so ago, one of the unmade figured out how to give these regular singers forms of power, so everyone thought this was a desolation, this is known as the false desolation. Something happened to that unmade (got trapped in a sphere), and this did something to all the singers in the world, severed their connection to the rhythms of roshar, now they are all in dull form. The listeners were unaffected by this, and were surprised to discover a bunch of dull form singers with the humans when they met.
Thank you so much! So many questions answered!!

Anyways I would like a podcast about how exactly taravangian took over odium. Did he kill odium and take possession of his shards? Or what exactly happened? I must say I’m not at all looking forward to Brandon ending this collection. I think all of his fans need to protest and insist that he continue to write this story for another 30years or so by which time we all will be too old and blind to read lol! Seriously though. There can’t be an ending😢. Thank you for your time and effort u put into your research of the cosmere❤
hey i just found your channel. I think you are a great content creator for Stormlight which is great. However, i disagree with you about this video being spoiler-free. It is certainly not. The reveal of Taln enduring by himself for 4500 years blew my mind when I read about it (i guess in second book). So basically you are spoiling a huge reveal about Taln IMO.

It was less than a year between the last two desolations before the nine abandoned the oathpact. 9 heralds abandoned their duty, 9 spren unmade by Odium. Probably not a coincidence.
The volunteering to go to Braize is the ridiculous part to me. That on it's own makes it inevitable that they will eventually opt out of the deal because they can't win even when they win. It's like being told, "no matter how good you are, you're still going to hell". All 10 of them could survive and beat back the Desolation only to have to go to Braize ANYWAY.

I’d say this is kinda spoilery because this is Oathbringer stuff. Still I love how Taln, poor sweet Taln, was the only Herald never to break. Every other herald had broken apart from Taln. Taln lasted 4500 god damn years of torture, at 10x the pain. So he could’ve lasted 45,000 years theoretically if the other heralds were with him. Wow.

But we have figured out who tortured and a bit of how the Heralds are tortured, this was explained by the Stormfather to Dalinar in Oathbringer. I haven't checked to see if anyone else in the comment section has said this...yes, it's not super in depth, but we do know who tortured them and why.
So their mission is to basically endure unspeakable torment for all eternity with the only moments of reprieve beind massive war and destruction? Did Honor really not forsee the breaking of the oath? Did he expect everyone to have the same godly resolve as he does? Why not plan to select new Heralds every ten or hundred years when the current ones break beyond repair?
If Braize is damnation, it stands to reason that Ashyn is where the tranquiline halls are, right?
