'''Honor Chasm''' is a chasm in the [[Shattered Plains]] on [[Roshar]]. It begins narrow but becomes wider and deeper as it runs east. The edge of the chasm is down an incline. Six ladders are set up to allow bridgemen to go down into the chasms.{{book ref|sa1|11}}
It is located a short distance from [[Shattered Plains|Sadeas's warcamp]].{{book ref|sa1|11}}
▲[[The Way of Kings (book)|The Way of Kings]] mentions the chasm on page 159 of the hardback edition, "The Honor Chasm, the bridgemen called it, for it was the place where they could make the one decision left to them. The 'honorable' decision. Death."
It is the only place that [[Torol Sadeas|Sadeas]]' [[bridge crew]]s are allowed to visit unsupervised. The bridgemen use it to commit suicide. Gaz prefers that the bridgemen leave their sandals and vest behind if they choose to go to the Honor Chasm so he will not have to send someone down to fetch the clothing.{{book ref|sa1|11}}
[[Kaladin]] makes a trip to the chasm at one point, meaning to jump from it, but is distracted by the return of [[Syl]] and ends up returning to the camp with renewed purpose.▼
