What does the cover of ‘Wind and Truth’ look like?

The cover features a tall figure standing on some sort of platform wearing the blue color and official crest of House Kholin. The man is holding a book with hand outstretched, facing what looks like a raging lightning storm — which could be the Everstorm.

Fans online have wondered whether the figure could be Dalinar, but the long blond hair has some speculating it could be Adolin.
