I'm not asking for predictions. We have another thread for that. I want to know what you are looking forward to that will likely be in Oathbringer, I'm looking forward to: Kaladin at Hearthstone. I don't think his parents will be there, but I think other people from his past will be. It will be interesting to see him talk with Laurel again. Kaladin meeting with his parents. This I think will happen before Kaladin leaves Alethkar. I hope they help him realize Tien's death was not his fault or at least that they do not blame him. I wonder will Lirin be angry at Kaladin for what he has become. Hesina I think will just be happy to see him again and proud of him. Lirin, however, might have some issues with Kaladin joining the Knights Radient. He did tell Kaladin once that they were corrupted by power. Shallan interacting with the Ghostbloods. They are bad people, but their goals are an intriguing mystery, especially because the leaders are not from Roshar. I do wonder if they will tell Shallan where they are really from. I doubt it though, but I can hope Shallan exploring Urithiru. I think Shallan's chapters will focus more on the history of the place than the other POV characters. The others will be too engaged in the war. Shallan's scholarship is her main public contribution to the war effort. So it is from her we will learn more about the history of Urithiru and the Knight Radiant. Jasnah letting someone know she is alive in someway: in person or by spanreed. I hope Brandon doesn't have Jasnah keep her survival a secret for long. I just think it would be silly to have her not join with the others before the end of this book. Seeing Lift again. I love Lift. Having Nightblood talk to Szeth. Nightblood always made me laugh in Warbreaker. I also look forward to seeing how Nightblood uses stormlight instead of breath. I'm hoping for a scene with two Heralds. It would likely be a Szeth POV chapter and one of the Heralds would be Nale. I think it would be interesting to have Szeth and Nale walk in on Shalash as she breaks a work of art depicting her. We have had bits of conversation between Heralds her and there, but never a full scene with more than one, except for the prelude of WoK. Dalinar trying to unite people. This is not his natural talent, but he always makes an earnest effort. It will be interesting to see him learning how to be a Bondsmith. Dalinar's past. I hope the whole sequence is much longer than "The Trill." I enjoyed what we got in Unfettered 2, but I could tell that was only part of it. Shallan's and Kaladin's flashbacks were more complete. Also hopefully we will learn what happened to Dalinar's wife. Adolin facing the consequences of his crime. Not that he will be caught, but he will be effected by what he did somehow. The fallout of Sadeas's death. I'm hoping as much as we got of Lalai in WoR that we will see more of her in Oathbringer and that she will be an even better antagonist than her husband. Seeing more of Taln and hopefully finding out what is going on with him. I am sure he is the Herald Talenel and I want to see more of the Sons of Honor. That's what I am looking forward to reading about. What are you looking forward to?
