Fezzik Posted February 26, 2017 Report Share Posted February 26, 2017 We have this WOB: http://www.theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=1182 question number 40 that the cremling that appears in WoR epilogue is actually part of a Dysian Amian. In WoK, while Kaladin was a slave, (page 85 paperback) "he'd never seen a legger with such a deep purple carapace". By this point, he definitely is bonding with Sylphrena, so could this be the beginning of Amian monitoring, and are there any other possible Dysian sightings out there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Shallan's brother spend time pulling legs off of cremlings? I imagine there might be a Sleepless out there who's very annoyed with him. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd thought about this during the previous discussions on Aimian sightings but it seemed unlikely. Dysian Aimian cremlings are controlled by the Dysian (or hive mind, however you define it). Why would they let themselves be tortured by a child? But I do wonder if he has some connection to the cognitive realm or similar that makes him paranoid about cremlings because he's been watched, and he takes it out on all cremlings (which is the Rosharan term for any kind of small bug/creepy thing). So other cremlings are suffering collective retribution for his justified paranoia about whether cremlings are watching him. I suspect he was just a sick kid with a sadism problem though.

Weltall Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Yeah, I don't think Balat was even unconsciously worried about Dysians spying on him, his POV in Way of Kings makes it pretty clear he's as screwed up as the rest of the family and injuring small creatures that can't fight back is how he expresses it. He's also mentioned as enjoying watching axehound fights since at least Shallan's Middlefest flashback and one of the other brothers mentions that Balat is becoming more like their father every day. So I don't think his cruelty is meant to be significant in the same way that Hoid's quip about having nobody to talk to (to a Dysian hordeling) is significant.

Stark Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 @AerionBFII @Jondesu Maybe the Horneater's did the scouring? They scoured Aimia looking for the rare and delicious cremlings to cook. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jofwu Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 The Scouring of Aimia was basically one giant crawfish boil. I feel like there's a crazy theory in this about Rock being a chef... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Could the Dysian Aimians be the ancient enemies of the Horneaters? Didn't Rock refuse to fight because being a Soldier was less esteemed than his position in the family? Hes birth-order placed him as a Chef, far more important than a soldier. Because Chef's keep people fed, and are the bane of the Dysian Aimians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
