=== Travel to the Shattered Plains ===
After his arrival in Kholinar, Taln was apprehended by the men of [[House Kholin]]. Taln displayed no awareness following his collapse, repeating his mantra with no regard for his surroundings.{{book ref|
The ardents placed Taln in a small, dimly lit cell in their monastery where he remained unresponsive despite their care.{{book ref|sa2|63}} Once Taln was placed in the monastery, several groups became aware of his presence on the Shattered Plains. The [[Ghostbloods]] became aware of him somehow and were interested in him because he had drawn the attention of the king and Dalinar.{{book ref|sa2|63}} Their source provided them with sketches of Taln. The Sons of Honor became aware when Dalinar ordered Bordin go drinking with some Amaram's men and talk about Taln.{{book ref|sa2|76}} As part of his investigation into Amaram, Dalinar wished Bordin to spread the lie that Taln had mentioned a cache of Shardblades on the Plains. This news spread to Amaram, who contacted Bordin and had him bring him to see Taln in the monastery.{{book ref|sa2|64}} At this same time, Shallan Davar visited Taln on the behalf of the Ghostbloods.{{book ref|sa2|63}} Shallan recorded his mantra but was unable to get a reaction out of him until she drew in some [[Stormlight]], provoking a sudden and violent reaction from Taln, who shoved her into a wall. Appearing semi-lucid, Taln identified her as a Radiant, but quickly lapsed back into his mantra shortly afterwards. Shallan decided that she believed him to be a simple madman. While Shallan was still in the room with Taln, Amaram and Bordin arrived to see Taln, so she concealed herself in the cell with Lightweaving.{{book ref|sa2|64}} Upon seeing Taln, Amaram determined that he believed the man to be a Herald, but was unable to get him to speak or interact at all. Wishing to recover the fictitious Blades, Amaram left Taln in the cell.
