He appears to have been at least distantly involved with the [[Knights Radiant]]. Shortly before the [[Recreance]], he and [[Nale]] were both present for [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]]'s imprisonment, and he knew the truth of what caused the Recreance.{{book ref\|sa4\|24}}{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|94}} At some point afterwards, he grew to regret what happened with the [[Unmade]], but he either didn't seek out her gemstone to release her or did not succeed in finding it.{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|97}} At some point after the assassination, Kalak moved to [[Lasting Integrity]] and either assumed or resumed the duties of their High Judge.{{book ref\|sa4\|78}} ~~{{image\|Kalak by Shuravf.jpg\|side=left\|width=250px}}~~ === The Trial of Adolin Kholin === ▲{{image\|Kalak ~~Prelude~~by Shuravf.jpg\|side=right\|~~height~~width=250px~~\|Abandoning his [[Honorblade]]~~}} ==== The Diplomatic Mission ==== {{quote On the first day of the trial, Kelek was impatient to begin, fully ready to convict Adolin and have him sent to execution; the news that the honorspren wouldn't actually execute Adolin came as a surprise to him. After hurrying Sekeir along to begin as soon as possible, and making sure he understood the terms of the trial correctly, Kelek began to listen to the witness testimonies.{{book ref\|sa4\|87}} After [[Amuna]]'s testimony, Kalak admitted that the [[Stormfather]] choosing to bond again was in Adolin's favour. After a longer break, however, when he made everyone wait as he ate a fruit and made notes, he was forced by Sekeir to admit that the Stormfather's recent erratic behavior made the great spren's opinion untrustworthy. Next came [[Blended]]'s testimony; following it, Kalak pointed out to Adolin that an [[inkspren]] electing to side with ~~honorspren~~honorpren on any matter was not a good look for humans. Finally, [[Notum]] was brought out to read a pre-made testimony. However, he broke away from it to protest and side with Adolin. This caused a good amount of agitation among the honorspren, which in turn made Kalak panic. He curled up and covered his ears, trembling.{{book ref\|sa4\|87}} After Notum was led out, Kelek quickly returned to a state of calm, and explained to Adolin that he's stepped into an old argument between spren. When Adolin pointed out that the first day of the trial went well for him, Kalak was unconvinced. He explained to Adolin that he did not believe men truly changed, and further elaborated that some spren believe they should side with [[Odium]], and that Adolin's arrival could tip the scales in favour of that.{{book ref\|sa4\|87}} Kalak, like many other [[Herald]]s, has a deep respect for [[Jezrien]], treating him as the unquestionable leader even when he knows Jezrien is just as tired of the war as the others are. The idea that Jezrien himself might be breaking terrifies him.{{book ref\|sa1\|part=prelude}} Unlike [[Nale]], Kalak keeps that respect even thousands of years later, after Jezrien has been reduced to a homeless drunk. He is incensed at [[Szeth]] using Jezrien's [[Honorblade]], and quickly investigates what happened to Jezrien after his passing.{{book ref\|sa2\|part=prelude}}{{epigraph ref\|sa4\|79}} Though the group decided to never meet again, Kalak and Nale seem to ~~spend~~hang ~~time~~out together prior to the [[True Desolation]]. Both were present for [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]]'s capture, and centuries later, both were speaking to [[Gavilar]] together about his research. They were in [[Kholinar Palace]] on the night of the [[assassination of Gavilar]], though they don't seem to have witnessed the event itself.{{book ref\|sa4\|24}}{{book ref\|sa4\|prologue}} In the present times, Kalak seems rather scared of going along with Nale, while Nale bullies him and dismisses his concerns.{{book ref\|sa2\|prologue}}{{book ref\|sa4\|prologue}} He considers [[Taln]] to be the best of them all. At Aharietiam, he was ashamed to leave him behind. During the [[True Desolation]], he bemoans the fact that even someone like this could break.{{book ref\|sa4\|97}} * The official painting of Kalak, by {{a\|Magali Villeneuve}}, was included in the hardcover release of ''[[Rhythm of War]]''. == ~~Notes~~Notas == <references /> {{complete\|[[User:Rasarr\|Rasarr]] ([[User talk:Rasarr\|talk]]) 21:48, 23 November 2020 (UTC)}} {{Stormlight}} [[Categoría:Personajes con puntos de vista]] ~~[[category: viewpoint characters]]~~
