<!-- correct to PRESENT TENSE -->
Though most of the nations of Roshar are agreed that they need to fight
[[Elhokar]] approached Dalinar early on in his efforts to reach out to other nations and swore an oath to him that he would regard Dalinar as his highking. Dalinar reluctantly accepted, knowing it would be best for him to assume the position and cede his role as highprince to [[Adolin]].{{book ref|sa3|12}} He had Elhokar formalize the deal before leaving on his mission to [[Kholinar]] but, especially after the failure of their mission there, decided to wait to announce it until he had news of Elhokar and Adolin again.{{book ref|sa3|58}}{{book ref|sa3|104}}▼
Following the guidance of the [[Diagram (literature)|Diagram]], Taravangian realized that he must take action when it became clear that Dalinar would recover from his personal struggles inflicted by his returning memories. His [[Diagram (group)|group]] had industriously collected historical research and present day secrets, turning them into incriminating evidence against Dalinar.{{book ref|sa3|107}}▼
Taravangian's confession of his role in Szeth's assassinations of Azish leaders strains relationships, but they agree to cooperate because of the immediate, dire threat Odium represents.{{book ref|sa4|16}} Dalinar privately suspects [[Malata]] of granting the enemy access to Urithiru during the Battle of Thaylen Field and so, further suspicious of Taravangian, ensures that his troops stationed on the Alethkar-Jah Keved border are placed such that they are not left exposed to Taravangian's armies.{{book ref|sa4|17}} Navani grudgingly agrees with Taravangian's assessment that the previous Veden king, [[Hanavanar]], would not have agreed to an alliance.{{book ref|sa4|19}} <!-- in ch 19 Navani accuses T to his face of releasing the material from the Thaylen mtg and he doesn't deny it. He also reveals to her his solid belief that he is doing the best thing to help humanity survive. The one thing in question is whether or not he is knowingly working with Odium -->▼
The nations are yet reluctant to share state secrets despite pleas from the other members, as evidenced by the Thaylens' determination to remain tight-lipped regarding the methods used by the [[Vriztl Guild]] to transfer [[Stormlight]] between [[gemstone]]s.{{epigraph ref|sa4|4}}{{epigraph ref|sa4|19}} Even in the threat of a life or death situation, the Thaylens remain suspicious of an elaborate trap and only part with the knowledge very reluctantly.{{book ref|sa4|42}}
Combining the discipline and teamwork of the Azish infantry with the flexibility and special tactics of the Alethi creates a potent army.{{book ref|sa4|47}}
=== Taravangian's Propoganda War and Betrayal === <!-- subsection(s)? -->
▲Following the guidance of the [[Diagram (literature)|Diagram]], Taravangian
▲[[Elhokar]]
An acute worry of the Alethi is that the resurgence of [[Surgebinding]] will lead to a repeat of the [[Recreance]]. Though they for the most part trust Dalinar and his motives, it is a major blow to them to receive the translation of the [[Eila Stele]] and discover that the original [[Voidbringers]] were, in fact, human. This knowledge casts a shadow over the moral right they thought they had to fight a war against Odium in the first place. It kindles new fears that they could, by their powers, destroy Roshar as they have already destroyed [[Ashyn]].<!-- cite -->
<!-- The Azish - what is the fundamental fear here, and where is it stated? they get news designed to cultivate fear that Dalinar is actually working with Odium -->
