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.{{book ref\|sa3\|2}} Thanadal took advantage of the opportunity to build himself a virtual kingdom of his own in the area.{{book ref\|sa3\|104}} 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]],{{book ref\|sa3\|104}} 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.{{book ref\|sa3\|2}} Thanadal was a member of the [[Sons of Honor]].{{book ref\|sa4\|7}} During the year following the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]] he had rose up their ranks and became aware of the group's secrets. The [[Ghostbloods]] ultimately assassinated him despite him trying to negotiate.{{book ref\|sa4\|7}} The Kholins used to think that [[Ialai Sadeas]] was the one who ordered Highprinces Vamah and Thanadal to be assassinated.{{book ref\|sa4\|6}} But, moments from her death, Ialai told [[Shallan]] that the [[Ghostbloods]] were the ones who actually assassinated the two Highprinces.{{book ref\|sa4\|7}} == Trivia == * Thanadal never actually appears on-screen and is never described in the books. == Notes == <references /><!--sa1: 18, 28, 58. sa2: 14, 24, 29, 36, 67, 68. sa3: 2, 21, 40, 104--> ~~<references />~~ {{~~stub~~Complete}} {{stormlight}} [[~~Category~~category: ~~Family~~family names]]
