Added SA2 end, cleaned up a lot of phrasing and tense. Added new section for post-truthless time. Probably still needs another proofread.

== History ==
=== Early Life ===
Szeth is bound to his [[Oathstone]]. Whoever owned his Oathstone, owned Szeth. Szeth is obliged by his honor to do as the owner commanded with the exception of killing himself or giving up his Shardblade.{{book ref|sa1|i|3}}
 
He was named Truthless at approximately 27 years of age and was traded to the Thaylen merchant [[Vstim]] shortly afterwards.{{book ref|sa1|i|4}}
 
=== Assassin in White ===
At some later point Szeth came into [[Parshendi]] possession by as of yet unknown means. When he was 29 years of age, he was given orders to murder King [[Gavilar Kholin]] of [[Alethkar]] during the Alethi-Parshendi treaty-signing celebrations, in public, and be seen doing it with live witnesses. AAs fiercehe battleattacked betweenhe Gavilarwas and Szeth commenced. Fooledfooled into believing Gavilar was a bodyguard in the beginning,. Szeth was forced into chasing after the escaping target, instead of fighting a protracted battle. However soon after, he realized the target was simply a decoy, since Gavilar would be much safer in his own Shardplate, fighting with his Shardblade, instead of fleeing for his life. Doubling back, Szeth abandoned chase and returned to kill Gavilar. InA the ensuingfierce battle, between Gavilar and Szeth commenced. Gavilar almost succeedssucceeded in killing Szeth with a Shardplate enhanced punch, but ultimately failsfailed and fallsfell to his death upon a piece of wooden debris, impalingwhich impaled him in a spot where the Shardplate had been broken. Before dying, Gavilar had two last requests: to tell his brother to "find the most important words a man could say"," and to protect a mysterious [[black orbsphere]] that shone dark light. Szeth honored both requests, scrawling a message to [[Dalinar]] into the wood with Gavilar's own hand and blood.{{book ref|twok|prologue}} Eventually he also hid away the black orb somewhere in [[Jah Keved]].{{book ref|twok|i|3}}
 
He wore traditional white Parshendi assassin attire on the night he killed Gavilar, which led to him being known as the Assassin in White. Parshendi customs bade assassins to wear white, for if someone were to be assassinated, they were owed a fair warning.{{book ref|twok|prologue}}
 
=== Vengeance Pact ===
Following Gavilar's death, the Parshendi threw away Szeth's Oathstone as they fled [[Kholinar]]. As the Alethi believed that Szeth had fled with the Parshendi they did not attempt to track him down and instead began the [[Vengeance Pact]], waging war on the Parshendi. Meanwhile Szeth was eventually picked up by [[Avado]]. The travelling merchant took him to Jah Keved in fear of possible Alethi retributions against strange foreigners in the wake of their king's death. Over the course of more than 5 years, the Oathstone changed possession many times before landing in the hands of [[Took]], a transient worker. Took was robbed and killed after a night of drinking in [[Ironsway]], a town in the [[Bavland]], and Szeth's Oathstone went to [[Makkek]].{{book ref|twok|i|3}} With Szeth under his control, Makkek set out to gain wealth, first by killing his fellow robbers, and then establishing a gambling den in [[Bornwater]].{{book ref|twok|i|6}}
 
On one of Makkek's missions, this time to eliminate a rival who had opened his own gambling place, Szeth infiltrated the local lord's mansion where his target [[Gavashaw]] resided. There he met a mysterious stranger who knew of Szeth and his role in Gavilar's death, revealing in detail of Szeth's powers, and also of a new master they both now served, revealing his Oathstone taken from Makkek. Gavashaw and Makkek had both been killed.
The stranger gave Szeth a list of high ranking targets, all of whom were to be eliminated with the same skill displayed over five years ago in Kholinar. Szeth set out to do his work. His second last goal was King [[Hanavanar]] of Jah Keved whom he killed along with his two Shardbearer guards.{{book ref|twok|i|9}}
 
King [[Taravangian]], the last one on Szeth's hit list, turned out to be his secret employer. Widely known as the dim witted, elderly, yet kind king of [[Kharbranth]], Taravangian actually ran a secret hospital hidden in the king's palace. It was built in a large room with wide railings on the sides. Its purpose was to slowly kill the incredibly sick, elderly, or just undesired remnants of society by slowly draining the blood out of them, thereby protracting their death out of public eyesight. Taravangian did this because some of the dying spoke during the last moments of their life, which he thought might provide valuable insight about the coming Desolation. So in order to prepare for it, he began collecting their [[death throesrattle|death rattles]].{{book ref|twok|71}}
 
During a [[Highstorm]], Szeth attacked King [[Elhokar]]'s palace on the [[Shattered Plains]]. He entered the palace through a hole he cut in thea way,high andstone quicklywall. He killed [[Beld]] and cut through [[Hobber]]'s midriff, crippling the use of his legs. He proceeded to fight against [[Adolin]], [[Kaladin]], and [[Dalinar]] who all believed he was there to assassinate Elhokar. He quickly gained the upper hand, sendinglashing Adolin to the ceiling and cutting through Kaladin's arm. When he was about to kill Dalinar, Dalinar caught thehis Shardblade between his hands, a maneuver known as the Last Clap, allowing Kaladin to push both himself and Szeth through the hole in the wall that Szeth had made to enter the palace. The two of them fell to the ground, both surviving. Szeth panicked when he saw Kaladin healing his arm, and when Kaladin told him he was a Windrunner, Szeth fled.
 
=== Contemplation ===
After his confrontation with Kaladin, Szeth retreatsretreated to the top of Urithiru where he wonderswondered if he was wrong the entire time,. heHe staresstared into the distance and trying not to blink, as he hearsheard the screams of his victims every time he closesclosed his eyes. Szeth shoutsshouted at the sun demanding to know why must he bear the sins if he iswas not Truthless. andHe decidesdecided to go looklooking for answers, or someone to kill.

=== Battle of Narak ===
Szeth found Dalinar during the climax of the [[Battle of Narak]]. He fought Dalinar who was able to temporarily hold his own before being lashed to the sky to eventually fall to his death after the stormlight lashing deid. Szeth believed his mission was completed and attempted to casually leave, when he was confronted by Adolin. Kaladin, who recently regained his powers and stated the [[Immortal Words|third ideal]] of the Windrunners, caught Dalinar and returned him safely to the ground. Kaladin and Szeth then battled above the colliding Highstorm and [[Everstorm]]. During the battle Szeth came to the realization that Kaladin was truly a Radiant, thus he was never Truthless. He sacrificed himself to Kaladin, who hesitated, and slashed Szeth's wrist with [[Syl]]. Szeth then fell into the storm and released the bond with his Blade. Unable to use stormlight, Szeth was killed by the fall and Kaladin recovered the Honorblade.{{book ref|sa2|86}}
