== Beliefs ==
The beliefs between the highest leadership of the Sons of Honor and its members are generally at odds with each other.
Like the [[Envisagers]],{{book ref|sa2|71}} the Sons of Honor believe that by returning the [[Voidbringers]] they will cause the [[Herald]]s to return as well. They believe this will usher in a new era of Vorin dominance.{{book ref|sa2|88}} The Sons of Honor appear ruthless and have little regard for the loss of innocent life in the pursuit of their goals.{{book ref|sa1|51}}{{book ref|sa2|88}} Despite their organization being based around Vorinism, they do not appear to strictly follow the gender norms dictated by the church. [[Amaram]] uses the [[stormwarden script]] to get around the prohibitions on writing.{{book ref|sa2|52}} Restares likely knows it as well, given Amaram's letter was written in the script.{{book ref|sa2|88}}▼

They believe this will usher in a new era of Vorin dominance.{{book ref|sa2|88}} This is the reason for many of their members joining but some leaders such as Gavilar and Restares do not think this is the case and have different motives for their actions.{{book ref|sa4|4}}{{book ref|sa4|7}}

Of the organizations that are aware of the Voidbringers and the [[Desolation]]s, the Sons of Honor are the most incorrect in their beliefs and actions regarding that knowledge.{{wob ref|4604}}
== History ==
The Sons of Honour have similar origins to the Diagram.{{wob ref|3399}} At some stage the Envisagers formed as a splinter group of the Sons of Honour.{{wob ref|14534}}
The Sons of Honor existed before [[Gavilar Kholin]] joined their organization, but he helped to greatly expand their numbers and influence. Notably, he was the one who recruited Amaram to join them.{{book ref|sa3|40}} The majority of recruits joined due to religious belief but some leaders of the group, such as Gavilar, had different motives and plans and primarily used the Sons of Honour to further his own goals.{{book ref|sa4|7}}{{book ref|sa4|4}} Restares responded favourably to Gavilars plans and worked to help him despite knowing that it would return the desolations.{{book ref|sa4|82}} On the night of Gavilar's death meetings where held between him and other members of the Sons of Honour.{{book ref|sa2|prologue}}{{book ref|sa3|prologue}} Gavilar suspected that the Ghostbloods may have been behind the assassination though he also considered Restares might have been responsible, previously he had never thought that Restares would assassinate him.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}}
[[Odium]] used Amaram's beliefs and the truth about the [[Heralds]] to convince him to join Odium's forces.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
== Relationships ==
The Sons of Honor
The [[Diagram (group)|Diagram]] likely knows about the Sons of Honor, as [[Taravangian]] was a member of Gavilar's trusted inner circle.{{book ref|sa2|i|4}} It is not clear if the Sons of Honor are aware of the formation and actions of the Diagram. The two organizations have similar origins in their awareness of the [[True Desolation]] but different philosophies on what should be done about it.{{wob ref|3399}}{{wob ref|4604}}
