==History==
Gavilar givesgave a sphere to [[Eshonai]] on the day of his assassination and tellstold her to give it to [[the Five]] after a conversation about [[Parshmen]] and, [[Parshendi]], and their gods.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}} The sphere given to Eshonai iswas described as having a dark yet faintly violet glow that she seemsseemed to believe iswas [[Voidlight]].{{book ref|sa3|prologue}}
 
Later that day, Gavilar givesgave [[Szeth]] a similar black sphere at the end of their fatal duel.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} The sphere given to Szeth iswas described as small, crystalline, tied to a chain, and glowing with a black light that Szeth hashad not seen before.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} Gavilar sayssaid that Szeth must take the sphere so that "they" dowould not get hold of it; it is unclear to whom he iswas referring.{{book ref|sa1|prologue}} Szeth later hid the sphere in [[Jah Keved]].{{book ref|sa1|interlude|3}} and has not yet retrieved it.

At the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], [[Dalinar Kholin]] trapstrapped the [[Unmade]] named [[Nergaoul]] in the [[King's Drop]] ruby{{book ref|sa3|120}} which subsequently glowsglowed with a dark, bizarre light.{{book ref|sa3|121}} [[Navani Kholin]] sayssaid it remindsreminded her of a sphere that Gavilar had.{{book ref|sa3|121}} Navani doesdid not appear to be aware that there was more than one sphere; she also believesbelieved that Gavilar "made" the sphere she saw.{{book ref|sa3|121}}
 
*A [[TookBav]] drunkenlyworker claimsnamed [[Took]] claimed to have stolen a similar sphere from the [[Nightwatcher]].{{book ref|sa1|interlude|3}} Although Took was Szeth's master for a time, he was unlikely to have known about Gavilar's spheres.
 
== Speculation ==
{{theory}}
Readers have theorized that Gavilar's spheres contain either [[Voidlight]] or an [[Unmade]].{{wob ref|10582}}{{wob ref|10285}}
Brandon has not explicitly confirmed what the black spheres contain. He has said that the sphere's light is different from Stormlight,{{wob ref|10390}} related to [[Odium]],{{wob ref|308}} and that "it is what the third book (''[[Oathbringer]]'') implies it is."{{wob ref|9515}}
 
The size, shape, and glowing properties of the spheres are similar to common Rosharan [[polestone]]s that can hold Stormlight. Additionally, the dark violet glow has been seen when the [[Fused]] use Voidlight;{{book ref|sa3|54}}{{book ref|sa3|79}}{{book ref|sa3|i|13}} Eshonai also seems to recognize the glow as Voidlight based on knowledge passed down through [[Listener]] songs.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}}
 
Before giving Eshonai a sphere, Gavilar tells her that [[Singer#Slaveform|slaveform]] came about after an "ancient, crucial [[spren]]" was captured.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}} The [[Urithiru gem archive]] referscontains references to thea historical [[Bondsmith]] named [[Melishi]] planningwho planned to capture an Unmade using a [[perfect gemstone]]{{epigraph ref|sa3|79}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|83}} to deny the use of Voidlight and [[Singer#Forms_of_Power|Forms of Power]].{{epigraph ref|sa3|78}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|81}} A "strike team" (presumably of [[Knights Radiant]] in support of Melishi) was subsequently sent to imprison [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]], whom the Radiants believed to be the source of Voidlight.{{epigraph ref|sa3|80}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|81}} BasedGavilar onseemed to have some knowledge of these events, including the fatefact that it was possible to capture powerful spren in a gemstone and that the Unmade were the source of the Forms of Power, and he sought to release them.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}} After Dalinar captured Nergaoul in a large perfect gemstone, it then glowed with a dark light, similar to the light of Gavilar''Oathbringer''s spheres.{{book ref|sa3|121}} [[Meridas Amaram]] was able to bond with [[Yelig-nar]] by swallowing a small smokestone,{{book thisref|sa3|121}} couldand meana glowing dark violet gemstone was later visible inside his body as the Unmade took it over.{{book ref|sa3|120}} Although Gavilar had multiple spheres and they are not confirmed to be perfect, it is possible that they somehow contain Ba-Ado-Mishram isor trappedanother in the spheresUnmade.
