Chapter 	Epigraph 	Sources
One 	I’m certain some will feel threatened by this record. Some few may feel liberated. Most will simply feel that it should not exist. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Two 	I needed to write it anyway. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Four 	I know that many women who read this will see it only as further proof that I am the godless heretic everyone claims. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Five 	I can point to the moment when I decided for certain this record had to be written. I hung between realms, seeing into Shadesmar—the realm of the spren—and beyond.	From Oathbringer, preface
Six 	I thought that I was surely dead. Certainly, some who saw farther than I did thought I had fallen. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Seven 	I did not die. I experienced something worse. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Eight 	That moment notwithstanding, I can honestly say this book has been brewing in me since my youth. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Nine 	The sum of my experiences has pointed at this moment. This decision. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Ten 	Perhaps my heresy stretches back to those days in my childhood, where these ideas began. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twelve 	I ask not that you forgive me. Nor that you even understand. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Thirteen 	I ask only that you read or listen to these words. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Fourteen 	In this record, I hold nothing back. I will try not to shy away from difficult topics, or paint myself in a dishonestly heroic light. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Fifteen 	I will express only direct, even brutal, truth. You must know what I have done, and what those actions cost me. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Sixteen 	For in this comes the lesson. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Seventeen 	It is not a lesson I claim to be able to teach. Experience herself is the great teacher, and you must seek her directly. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Eighteen 	You cannot have a spice described to you, but must taste it for yourself. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty 	However, with a dangerous spice, you can be warned to taste lightly. I would that your lesson may not be as painful as my own. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-one 	I am no storyteller, to entertain you with whimsical yarns. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-two 	I am no philosopher, to intrigue you with piercing questions. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-three	I am no poet, to delight you with clever allusions. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-four 	I have no doubt that you are smarter than I am. I can only relate what happened, what I have done, and then let you draw conclusions. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-five 	I will confess my murders before you. Most painfully, I have killed someone who loved me dearly. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-seven	I will confess my heresy. I do not back down from the things I have said, regardless of what the ardents demand. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-eight	Finally, I will confess my humanity. I have been named a monster, and do not deny those claims. I am the monster that I fear we all can become. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Twenty-nine 	So sit back. Read, or listen, to someone who has passed between realms. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Thirty 	Listen to the words of a fool. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Thirty-one 	If they cannot make you less foolish, at least let them give you hope. 	From Oathbringer, preface
Thirty-two 	For I, of all people, have changed. 	From Oathbringer, preface
==Relic and Monument==
While Jasnah Kholin's Relic and Monument doesn't claim that everyone from the time of the Silver Kingdoms spoke the same language, it does claim that they wrote it.
==Mythica==
The epigraphs for Chapters 89 through 113 of the novel are from the book, Mythica, a volume written by Hessi, focused on the history of the Unmade.
Chapter 	Epigraph 	Sources
Eighty-Nine 	My research into the Unmade has convinced me that these things were not simply "spirits of the void" or "nine shadows who moved in the night." They were each a specific kind of spren, endowed with vast powers. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 3
Ninety 	I have done my best to separate fact from fiction, but the two blend like mixing paint when the Voidbringers are involved. Each of the Unmade has a dozen names, and the powers ascribed to them range from the fanciful to the terrifying. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 4
Ninety-One 	I should point out that although many personalities and motives are ascribed to them, I’m convinced that the Unmade were still spren. As such, they were as much manifestations of concepts or divine forces as they were individuals. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 7
Ninety-Two 	The most important point I wish to make is that the Unmade are still among us. I realize this will be contentious, as much of the lore surrounding them is intertwined with theology. However, it is clear to me that some of their effects are common in the world—and we simply treat them as we would the manifestations of other spren. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 12
Ninety-Three 	Traxil mentions Yelig-nar, named Blightwind, in an oft-cited quote. Though Jasnah Kholin has famously called its accuracy into question, I believe it. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 26
Ninety-Five 	Yelig-nar had great powers, perhaps the powers of all Surges compounded in one. He could transform any Voidbringer into an extremely dangerous enemy. Curiously, three legends I found mention swallowing a gemstone to engage this process. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 27
Ninety-Six 	Yelig-nar is said to consume souls, but I can’t find a specific explanation. I’m uncertain this lore is correct. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 51
Ninety-Seven 	Of the Unmade, Sja-anat was most feared by the Radiants. They spoke extensively of her ability to corrupt spren, though only “lesser” spren—whatever that means. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 89
Ninety-Eight 	Lore suggested leaving a city if the spren there start acting strangely. Curiously, Sja-anat was often regarded as an individual, when others—like Moelach or Ashertmarn—were 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 90
Ninety-Nine 	Nergaoul was known for driving forces into a battle rage, lending them great ferocity. Curiously, he did this to both sides of a conflict, Voidbringer and human. This seems common of the less self-aware spren. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 121
One Hundred 	I am convinced that Nergaoul is still active on Roshar. The accounts of the Alethi “Thrill” of battle align too well with ancient records—including the visions of red mist and dying creatures. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 140
One Hundred One 	Moelach is very similar to Nergaoul, though instead of inspiring a battle rage, he supposedly granted visions of the future. In this, lore and theology align. Seeing the future originates with the Unmade, and is from the enemy. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 143
One Hundred Two 	Moelach was said to grant visions of the future at different times—but most commonly at the transition point between realms. When a soul was nearing the Tranquiline Halls. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 144
One Hundred Three 	Many cultures speak of the so-called Death Rattles that sometimes overtake people as they die. Tradition ascribes them to the Almighty, but I find too many to be seemingly prophetic. This will be my most contentious assertion I am sure, but I think these are the effects of Moelach persisting in our current times. Proof is easy to provide: the effect is regionalized, and tends to move across Roshar. This is the roving of the Unmade.	From Hessi's Mythica, page 170
One Hundred Four 	Ashertmarn, the Heart of the Revel, is the final of the three great mindless Unmade. His gift to men is not prophecy or battle focus, but a lust for indulgence. Indeed, the great debauchery recorded from the court of Bayala in 480—which led to dynastic collapse—might be attributable to the influence of Ashertmarn. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 203
One Hundred Six 	I find Ba-Ado-Mishram to be the most interesting of the Unmade. She is said to have been keen of mind, a highprincess among the enemy forces, their commander during some of the Desolations. I do not know how this relates to the ancient god of the enemy, named Odium. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 224
One Hundred Seven 	There is very little information about Ba-Ado-Mishram in more modern times. I can only assume she, unlike many of them, returned to Damnation or was destroyed during Aharietiam. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 226
One Hundred Eight 	Chemoarish, the Dustmother, has some of the most varied lore surrounding her. The wealth of it makes sorting lies from truths extremely difficult. I do believe she is not the Nightwatcher, contrary to what some stories claim. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 231
One Hundred Nine 	Re-Shephir, the Midnight Mother, is another Unmade who appears to have been destroyed at Aharietiam. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 250
One Hundred Ten 	The Midnight Mother created monsters of shadow and oil, dark imitations of creatures she saw or consumed. Their description matches no spren I can find in modern literature. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 252
One Hundred Eleven 	It will not take a careful reader to ascertain I have listed only eight of the Unmade here. Lore is confident there were nine, an unholy number, asymmetrical and often associated with the enemy. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 266
One Hundred Twelve 	I am certain there are nine Unmade. There are many legends and names that I could have misinterpreted, conflating two Unmade into one. In the next section, I will discuss my theories on this. 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 266
One Hundred Thirteen	If I’m correct and my research true, then the question remains. Who is the ninth Unmade? Is it truly Dai-Gonarthis? If so, could their actions have actually caused the complete destruction of Aimia? 	From Hessi's Mythica, page 307
