Post Body

So, last night I finished Warbreaker, and it was AMAZING. So good, so surprising, so smart.

But there is one question I still trying to figure out - Denth's real name is ValaTreledees. Treledees is also the name of the God king's high priest. Both are very important characters, one is a main villain and the other is mistaken to be one most of the book.

And knowing Sanderson, there must be a reason to this name similarity. THERE MUST BE ONE. Maybe I missed it, maybe it haven't been revealed in the book... But do you have an answer/theories why those names so similar, what this Vala means, or anything about this?

Thanks!
