So in the SP1 post, Brandon said we "might be able to puck up some context of who [Hoid's] talking to" based on some of the comments he peppers in. I'm not sure if that's just like homeworld or if we're talking about a specific character, but the thought did hit me wondering whether Hoid is telling this story on First of the Sun (maybe to our buddy Sixth). Idk does this seem likely to anyone else?

Things in Signed Well of Ascension Leatherbounds

Q-Can Feruchemical Tin store Allomantically granted senses like bronze sense? A-Possible My speculation from several months back is confirmed. Now to find out about need for active burn while storing and tapping. (Sorry for upside down picture. I'm not sure how to fix it.) -
Okay, but as I was reading chapter 96 from Navani's POV at the meeting where she made everyone bring their own chair, the whole thing she had going throughout the scene about "order from chaos" just really felt like the lead in we so often get to Radiants Speaking the Words, and that also feeling like the type of antithesis we often see in a lot of the Ideals, so I'm wondering if that was some foreshadowing of Navani becoming a Radiant. Did anyone else get that vibe? If that is the case, what order do you think that Ideal would go with?

Perhaps we could be looking at this for Era 2, because Brandon has commented that there are some hints throughout at what he's been up to.

Basically just grabbing onto some of that framework to build on, honestly. Harmony seems as good as symbol for low intervention deity as any, so while I'm definitely not talking about literally worshiping Sazed, but the way Pathians in the books talk about him line up pretty well with some of my current thoughts on deity, so I see no problem in picking up some of the lingo.

But spiking people is just so much fun!
-
So I've felt kind of lost spiritually lately, and I'm seriously considering just becoming a Pathian, working in a little bit of Survivorist and Korathi ideology as well, because honestly, I think Sazed would approve of looking for the good stuff in various traditions. Has anyone else ever considered applying religious ideas from the cosmere in real life?

A really ridiculous theory: Cosmere Nutella!!!
NewbSombrero replied to Steeldancer's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I don't remember where the specific WoB is, but at one point he said that if it exists or has existed on Earth, it exists at some point in Scadrial's time line as it is the nearest Earth equivalent in the cosmere, so I think we're good on both hazelnuts and Nutella. -
So I'm working on getting one of my friends into the cosmere, and after reading Warbreaker, she expressed hopes of seeing more Lightsong in the future even though he died. While I don't think that will happen, it did get me thinking about how the Returned are cognitive shadows "stapled" back to their bodies with their Divine Breath, and now I'm wondering again if the cognitive realm on Nalthis is just full of redead Returned just hanging out as cognitive shadows. Does anyone know if Brandon has said anything about this? Do cognitive shadows ever get the chance to go Beyond? I have so many questions now because of this.

Seeker. It's not like I got the Bronze necklace for Brandon's store or anything, so I guess it works out. xD

I thought that there was no such thing as a perfect Twinborn combination, but you just proved me wrong.

It's been a while, but I think that he's specifically said he won't be telling Alendi's story any more than what he already has. -
Question: Was the black mist spirit that Alendi saw Preservation or Ruin? Which one? Why did this rusting question get a rusting RAFO?

Full Edgedancer Reaction Thread [Edgedancer Spoilers]
NewbSombrero replied to Chaos's topic in Stormlight Archive
I found my order. I will remember those who have been forgotten, and I will listen to those who have been ignored. So stoked. -
Yeah, that's what I was expecting to see from what I remembered, but there's a definite qualitative difference between "recognize" and "detect," and the text specifically mentions that she could "recognize most metals," not just aluminum or heavily invested metalminds.
