ThroughKholinar is one of the agesDawn Cities, the citymost ancient sites on all of Roshar. Through the ages, it was rebuilt several times. It was the home of King [[Nohadon]] throughduring one of the [[Desolation]]s.{{book ref|twok|60}} ItFollowing has[[Sunmaker]]'s becomedeath, it fell into the hands of one of his sons, the progenitor of [[AlethiHouse Kholin]]. It became the capital city of [[Alethkar]], after [[Gavilar Kholin]] and [[Dalinar Kholin]] reunited Alethkar'sthe warring Highprinces back into a single Alethi Kingdomkingdom.
Near the end of the [[War of Reckoning]], [[Aesudan]]'s negligence and [[Pai]]'s accusations caused the city to erupt in riots. The [[Kholinar Wall Guard]] manages to restore order to the city and exiles all parshman from the city before the first everstorm arrives. Soon after the arrival of the everstorm, the Fused gather the transformed parshmen to Siege Kholinar.
 
During the siege, [[Kaladin]], [[Shallan]], and [[Adolin]] travel to Kholinar with King [[Elhokar]] in an attempt to free the city from whatever dark forces seem to be affecting it. They discover a dark cloud over the palace, and witness attacks made by the [[Fused]] before entering the city. A Fused attack on the wall is actually what allows them to enter the city, distracting the guards enough for them to push through. The city has fragmented into several factions. Queen [[Aesudan]] and the Palace guard control the palace, the [[Cult of Moments]] control the Oathgate platform, the [[Kholinar Wall Guard]] holds the wall and distributes food, and the rest of the city is split between various lighteye houses.
 
Near the end of the [[War of Reckoning]], [[Aesudan]]'s negligence and [[Pai]]'s accusations caused the city to erupt in riots. The [[Kholinar Wall Guard]] managed to restore order to the city and exiled all parshmen beyond its limits before the first [[Everstorm]] arrived. Soon afterwards, the Fused gathered the transformed parshmen and begun the [[siege of Kholinar]]. With high number of refugies coming in from the entire princedom and the silence from the palace, the city quickly became overwhelmed, with the various services collapsing and gangs roaming the city. The chief forces within Kholinar at the time were the Wall Guard and the Cult of Moments. In addition, the city was under the influence of two [[Unmade]], [[Ashertmarn]] - who influenced the Cult of Moments and caused the breakdown of the Lighteye structures in the city - and [[Sja-Anat]], who corrupted the various unmade.
There were three unmade present in the city during the siege. [[Sja-anat]] corrupted a large portion of local spren into twisted versions of themselves, including the spren of the [[Oathgate]]. [[Ashertmarn]], the Heart of the Revel, drove many of the nobles of Kholinar into excess and debauchery in an organization known as the [[Cult of Moments]]. Queen Aesudan attempted to bond with [[Yelig-nar]] by swallowing a gemstone containing it.
 
TheWhile the city's defenses and command structure hashad basically collapsed, but the [[Kholinar Wall Guard]] hashad taken up theits defense of the city under the command of Highmarshal [[Azure]], but- however, they arewere mostlyfocused directedalmost outwardsexclusively towardson the Fusedexternal threats. In the city, spren reactreacted strongly to any use of stormlight, including spanreeds and soulcasters. This, along with the threat of Fused attacks, made itoutside difficultcommunication toimpossible, communicate outside the city.and Soulcasting was only made possible by metal plates provided by [[Hoid|Wit]], seemingly made of aluminum, that prevented detection by corrupt spren. AThe wall guardGuard's single soulcaster was able to keep the guardthem and much of the city fed.

The Wall Guard was tasked with patrolling the city wall and controlling gate access, but was crippled when most of the high ranking lighteyes disappeared into the Palace after the execution of an ardent and subsequent riots. With no high -ranking lighteyes to take charge, a woman calling herself Highmarshal [[Azure]] seized control of the Wall Guard and organized them into the defense ofdefend the city. With the[[Ithi]] useand ofher asister singleusing [[Soulcaster]]the usedsingle byremaining [[IthiSoulcaster]] and her sister in a room lined with [[Aluminum]] provided by [[Wit]], Highmarshal [[Azure]] was able to keep the Wall Guard fed and provide a sizeable amount of food tofor the common people of Kholinar.
 
They recruited any able bodied fighter, using food and redemption to draw volunteers. They recruited Kaladin this way. Their primary focus was defending the wall from Fused raids, letting the city run itself for the most part. They used extra food to stop the other highlords from trying to seize control of the walls.
 
Kaladin iswas able to convince High Marshal Azure to lead six hundred of the wallWall guardGuard to assault the palace.
 
=== City Guard ===
The City Guard is the main peacekeeping force in the city. During the riots after the execution of [[Pai]], the remaining city guard was recalled to the palace. Like other people who entered, most of them never returned, leaving behind only the personal forces of the highlords.
 
After the riots, the Queen recalls the City Guard and the Palace Guard into the palace and anyone who entered never came back out. Many of the original highlords never returned either, leaving the city in chaos. Elhokar and Adolin arewere able to recruit about a hundred of the highlords and their personal guards to join on the assault.
 
=== Palace Guard ===
This iswas the force tasked with the imitate protection of the royal family in the city and the palace. A portion of the Guards resisted the lure of the Unmade and were locked in a room within the palace complex. WhileUpon intheir the roomrelease, they claimed time seemed to pass differently for them, feeling it has only been a few days notrather a fewthan weeks fromsince the riots.
 
=== Cult of Moments ===
The cult is a new arrival, as it either appeared or revealed itself upon the beginning of the siege. They are divided into two groups. One group roams the street imitating corrupted spren, andwhile the rest of the members hold feasts on the Monastery Dias. [[Ashertmarn]], the Heart of the Revel, compels them to mindless hedonism. The cult takes new members easily, provided that they can givebring them food. Shallan is able to join the revelers on the Oathgate platform by stealing and distributing foodit.
