Vienta
Sigzil's honorspren. She tends to remain invisible when in public, speaking softly into his ear when his self-doubt rises, and she insists — counter to his running self-assessment as failed scholar and persnickety perfectionist — that Bridge Four forged him into a leader and a hero. SA:WaT:Ch 21
Known facts
- vienta-becomes-deadeye-after-sigzils-renunciationWhen Sigzil renounces his oaths to spare her Moash's anti-Light knife, the bond collapses and Vienta falls as a Shardblade — a deadeye — at his side on the Narak plateau. He carries her with him through the Oathgate to Urithiru and lays her on the stones beside him, hoping that Adolin's Blade is right and deadeyes can be healed now.SA:WaT:Ch 118
