The Invested Beard Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 (edited) Time for another not well thought out crackpot theory based on happenstance! YAY My brother and I were recently talking about this WoB: https://wob.coppermind.net/events/127-salt-lake-city-comiccon-2017/#e5112 It got us to thinking. What overarching concept permeates the Cosmere? Adonalsium. Wait a second, doesn't Adonalsium sound like the name of a metal? We have Atium and Lerasium, Aluminium, etc...And metal can be shattered.... I think we might be on to something huge here guys...

I think we might be on to something huge here guys... also, metal is very important across the cosmere as well, which is interesting. I actually might have something more in-depth. some of this is from coppermind, and definitions, but some of it is my interpretation: definitions: "The name Adonalsium is derived from a Hebrew name for God, Adonai." -coppermind the suffix -al, as defined by google as relating to; of the kind of. (not sure if this is actually important, but it seems like something that nobody else has noticed, though.) and the suffix -ium, forming names of metallic elements. (according to google, it could also be denoting a region of the body, or denoting a biological structure.) my interpretation: so, it seems like it means something that was like or relating to a god (which brings up interesting implications), perhaps a metal, which means it could mean something like "something like or relating to a god metal (strange that we already have god metals...)" or maybe something else, perhaps it means "a region of or a structure in or relating to the body of a god", which I think is a really interesting concept. I might be wrong, though. I would like to see what other people have to say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IllNsickly Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 I like it. Even though I had Adonalsium in my head as one of the Naaru from WoW, I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
