Highmarshal Halad

An Alethi military authority whose maxims are still quoted as rules of war: *to beat someone, you must first know them,* and *plan every battle as if you will inevitably retreat, but fight every battle like there is no backing down.* Cited by Adolin under Urithiru when Shallan asks whether to fight or fall back from the Midnight Mother.
