History

While out on the Shattered Plains during the War of Reckoning, Thanadal refused to discuss the issue of a joint plateau assault with Dalinar, sending a messenger declining the possibility without even meeting him in person.[4]

After the Battle of Narak and the following settling of the tower city of Urithiru, most of the Alethi highprinces moved across the Shattered Plains with their war camps in tow. When they vacated the craters they had occupied as well as the surrounding land and resources, they left them for Highprinces Thanadal and Vamah, who had decided not to make the move.[6] Thanadal took advantage of the opportunity to build himself a virtual kingdom of his own in the area.[7] The political implications of Thanadal's refusal to join the others in Urithiru with regards to its subsequent rising power is uncertain. However, Highprince of Commerce Turinad Sebarial worried over Thanadal's continued seizure of Alethi resources on the Shattered Plains,[7] and Aladar expressed worry to Dalinar that without Thanadal's forces joining those at Urithiru, their armies would be too weak to establish Urithiru as the bastion of order he had envisioned.[6]

Trivia

  • Thanadal never actually appears on-screen and is never described in the books.
