Known facts
- ordered-genocide-of-azirYanagawn tells Dalinar the Azish version of his ancestor's conquest: the Sunmaker took the country so quickly he could not leave the captive male population alive behind him, and so handed every soldier a quota of thirty men to kill, or simply ordered everyone with hair past a certain length put to the sword. Before the Heralds struck him down with disease, he had murdered roughly a tenth of Azir's people; the bones of Zawfix piled in the streets as tall as the buildings.SA:OB:Ch 45
