I was originally going to post this post: So, in the past, Brandon has stated that he wants each of his series to be able to stand alone, so that someone who hasn't read all of his other books, and isn't aware of the cosmere can still enjoy them. At least until the space mistborn that is. My question is: how do you guys think he's going to be able to do that with Vasher and Nightblood now on Roshar? So far, there hasn't been much in the Stormlight Archive that hints at other planets. How would he be able to write it so that the explanation of who those two are is satisfying? As I was thinking about this though, I came up with a crazy aluminum foil theory. What if Nalthis is the Tranquiline Halls? It would be such an easy explanation. When asked, they'd just say, 'I'm from the Tranquiline Halls." Vasher is very old, maybe he was alive when humans migrated to Roshar. Maybe he was the one who figured out how to do it. There is a WoB out there that says he world hopped when he was younger. Or, instead of Vasher leading people to Roshar, maybe humans were a 'house warming gift' from Endowment to Honor and Cultivation when they arrived on Roshar. Endowment is all about giving gifts. Either way, it would explain why Vasher would have known to go to Roshar, and why stormlight can fuel being a Returned. The Rosharians are descendants of the people of Nalthis. Their SDNA is still close enough that the magics work supper well together. Brandon has said that Nalthis and Roshar have more conection than we think, maybe this is it? Anyway, just some crazy ideas I had. Let me know what you guys think.
