Interview #1078: Steelheart Signing Report - Shardlet, Entry #24

Question

Is the Palanaeum named for Palah?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes. In fact, it was named based on—it was Greek in our world—the Athenaeum? It was based off of that.

Wetlander

Did we see Palah?

Brandon Sanderson

I believe every one of the Heralds is mentioned or shown somewhere in the first book.

Wetlander

Someone was wondering whether the old woman who was wandering around the Palanaeum was her.

Brandon Sanderson

That is a very good guess. I won’t say specifically, because some of them are intended to be more obvious and some of them are intended to be red herrings. So, that was a very good guess.
