Yeah, I'm probably just confused on the honorblade stuff.  There is so little to go on so far...

nalen did say at the end of this last book that shinovar had 7... Which Im guessing is not counting the one sveth just had.  So thats 8 accounted for, one lost is probably the one nalen has, and talanel should have one as well as the last herald in the oathpact.  So that should be all of them. 

However, i do question whether this nalen is the actual herald.  If he abandoned the oathpact like all the heralds did... He shouldnt have his honorblade right?  If he has his honorblade and is the hearald... Shouldnt he have been enduring untold torture with talanel?


If I'm not wrong, Brandon himself said one of the Heralds changed his mind and came back for the honorblade after the Prelude of Way of Kings. So I'm torn here. Either Nalan is the one, or the man who claims to be him stole his honorblade from Shinovar, and Szeth didn't know it. Szeth himself was swayed by the possibilty Kaladin had one honorblade, so I question his knowledge all honorblades are accounted for on Shinovar.
