  1. Much better to steal powers from feruchemy than risk the revolt. And also the possibility of Compounding - we got a taste of that in Era 2, and it was stoopid broken. Honestly, for what Steel Inquisitors were used for, it would be better to start with an allomancy base than a feruchemy one. Less ground to cover, and less downtime once the full suite of powers was in place.
  2. I think I knew when he had the blow-up at Hoid. His synopsis of Wit's actions in tWoK and WoR was too specific - and too personal - to come from anyone else. It's been a while since the preview chapters, though. YouTube comments might just as easily have spoiled me.
  3. They'll get theirs in 10 or so years, though. I'm thinking of it like a round of House War, where Sylvain might be "losing" now, but once the Lord Ruler gets offed he'll be in a better position than all the rest of them.
  4. You know, despite the change of heart, I read this and recognize it's a very good thing Jenna does not have access to the secret of Tevidian's half-skaa daughter. She'd use that to burn Tekiel to the ground, before Kel could. (She might be tenacious enough to survive the house war he fomented, though. Although that may or may not play merry hob with established continuity)
  5. I think we did. I think he was part of the chorus of voices urging Kaladin onto the Fourth Ideal. "Say [the Words], lad! Do it!"
  6. I notice that the exact wording of that WoB about the Thrill's current incarceration does not specify whether it is in the Physical Realm or the Cognitive. Indeed, there is an argument to be made that if the Thrill were imprisoned anywhere in the Physical Realm, it would be very easily seen from the Cognitive.
  7. On Nightblood's leakage... I couldn't help but notice that black smoke leaked out of Raboniel's mouth when killed by Anti-Voidlight. Perhaps Nightblood converts anything he comes across into AntiInvestiture of the relevant variety?
  8. To misquote Arthur C Clarke: Either Book 5 only covers the 10 days up to the confrontation, or it does not. Both possibilities are equally terrifying.
  9. Technically speaking, the only habitable land on Ashyn is comprised of Ringworld-esque arcologies, but even they are orbiting the planet Ashyn, which conforms to the spherical model. And really that's the only exception I can think of.
  10. Space Age era Mistborn has the greatest likelihood of fulfilling that, especially since the main cast (last I heard, anyway) is set to include Hoid.
  11. re: Mistborn Era 2 leatherbounds - I picked the slipcase option, like Weiry did. It seems the best compromise between the two extremes.
  12. You need to be a Sand Master to use the newly-charged sand, but the charging happens passively in the presence of Investiture (to wit: Hoid's "Radiant Detector" sand bottle, in Kholinar). Ergo, the sand should charge upon exposure to the Mists, regardless of whether or not its user can then Master them.
  13. If you can't use Shadesmar as a hyperspace of sorts, and FTL travel is already accounted for... you'd need a sleeper or generation ship of some variety, with whatever Invested systems were necessary for life support or fuel or whatever, and if you're going that route you may as well use FTL (unless all varieties were inaccessible for some reason e.g. some Scadrian bigwig thought there was profit in selling FTL at an exorbitant price).
  14. I could have sworn that the 3 empires on Sel were the Rose Empire, Fjordell, and the mystery 3rd one. Is that not the case?
