== 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}} ▼

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 night of Gavilar's death, he thought Restares might have been responsible, though previously he had never thought that Restares would assassinate him.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} In truth, the Sons of Honor's plans to return the [[Fused]] and start a Desolation led to the [[listeners]] having him killed.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}}
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}}
AlthoughAfter hethe wasdeath of Gavilar Restares and Amaram made more frequent contact with each other. After the death of Gavilar it appears Amaram had replaced the role of him.{{book ref|sa4|4}} He ultimately served and followed the orders of Restares however. Although reluctant at first, Restares convinced Amaram to take the shards [[Kaladin]] won and kill any witnesses, though he enslaved Kaladin as a sign of his thanks instead.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} Amaram's trip to the [[Shattered Plains]] had to do with investigating the listeners and their connection to the Voidbringers.{{book ref|sa2|52}} After the [[Battle of Narak]], Amaram sent word to Restares that the Sons of Honor were successful, though in truth they had no part in starting the [[True Desolation]]. Amaram recognized that [[Taln]] was not a madman and removed him from his cell in Dalinar's temple.{{book ref|sa2|88}} At this time the Ghostbloods attempted an assassination attempt on Amaram's life.{{book ref|sa2|88}}
[[Odium]] used Amaram's beliefs and the truth about the [[Heralds]] to convince him to join Odium's forces.{{book ref|sa3|120}} ItAfter isthe currentlybattle notof knownThaylen ifField anyIalai otherbecame the leader of the Sons of Honour, due to the death of Gavilar and the actions of Amaram however there was little she could do to recover the former power of the Sons of Honour.{{book ref|sa4|4}} The remaining members of the Sons of HonorHomour knowcommand were assassinated.{{book ref|sa4|7}} Ialai spent the truthyear abouttrying to make contact with Restares again but was unsuccessful.{{book ref|sa4|13}} Mraize believed the HeraldsSons of Honour destroyed by this stage orand ifgave theyShallan havea joinedmission Odiumto aslocate wellRestares.{{book ref|sa4|13}}
== Relationships ==
The Sons of Honor appear to have an antagonistic relationship with both the [[Ghostbloods]] and the [[Skybreakers]]. [[Mraize]] sends [[Shallan]] to spy on Amaram in order to discover what secrets the Sons of Honor know.{{book ref|sa2|43}} After receiving Shallan's intelligence, they unsuccessfully try to assassinate him.{{book ref|sa2|88}} After the battle of Thaylan Field the Ghostbloods spent the next year successfully assassinating the leadership of the Sons of Honour.{{book ref|sa4|7}} The Ghostbloods also greatly hate and despise Restares for assisting Gavilar.{{book ref|sa4|82}} Despite this however Mraize acts dismissive towards the Sons of Honor, referring to them simply as Restares's cronies.{{book ref|sa2|54}} The Skybreakers also trytried to have Amaram killed as a strike against the Sons of Honor when they send [[Helaran Davar]] to his army with [[Shardblade]] and [[Shardplate]] to kill him.{{book ref|sa3|40}} This plan, however, resulted in the Sons of Honor gaining control of another set of shards.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} The leader of the Skybreakers, [[Nale]] also assisted the [[Parshendi]] in assassinating Gavilar Kholin.{{book ref|sa4|77}}
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}}
