The lack of Shards among the Unkalaki is a source of embarrassment for the ''nuatoma'', and many have traveled to [[Vedenar]] or [[Alethkar]] offering significant financial incentives in exchange for the chance to duel a [[Shardbearer]] and win a Shard.{{book ref|sa1|23}}{{book
All of the ''nuatoma'' who have challenged Alethi Shardbearers have been killed.{{book ref|sa1|23}} [[Kef'ha]], Lunamor's ''nuatoma'',
After [[Cord]] receives her Shardplate, Lunamor finds it remarkable that their nation's first Shardbearer is not a ''nuatoma'', but a young woman.{{book ref|sa4|12}}
