Associated with the Lost Radiants, nobody references it anymore. Yet, it is an old, ancient text, once well regarded. The book's association with the Radiants and contradiction with Vorin teachings (in saying that lighteyes were beneath darkeyes) made it unpopular among the Alethi and presumably all the Vorin kingdoms. The ancient text was saved from being lost by the Vanrial and it is the single complete work known to Alethi scholars that survived from early years. Later, the book was used by the Knights Radiant as a guide for their Ideals. The book is a series of forty parables that are metaphors for the author's life, real events turned into an example. It was given to people who already had momentum in doing what was right." "The book was written to embody an ideal. "Nohadon wrote the book at the end of his life, after creating order - after forcing the kingdoms to unite, after rebuilding lands that had fallen in the Desolation. It is one of the oldest, and the only complete text from the shadowdays. This book is a copy of a text originally written in the years before the Recreance.
