- The Unmade are presented as powerful, spren-like forces tied to the Cognitive and Spiritual Realms.

- Dalinar’s action of merging Realms likely enabled the physical imprisonment of the Thrill.

- Hosts speculate a link between nine Unmade and nine Heralds who abandoned the Oathpact, but stress uncertainty.
