'''The Diagram''' was a text that king [[Taravangian]] created on the day when he was a genius. It contained instructions on what to do to unite Mankind and was written in a language that Taravangian had invented on that day. Some sentences from it are in the [[Words of Radiance]] epigraphs.
In the Taravangian interlude, Taravangian goes to [[Jah Keved]], as The Diagram instructed him to. In Jah Keved, he is then made King.

{{quote|There is one you will watch. Though all of them have some relevance to precognition, Moelach is one of the most powerful in this regard.
