Raffaine Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Hi everyone, My name is Julio, I'm new to the whole Sanderson world, getting into it through the Stormlight Archive and having read also Elantris. I really like his world building and storytelling abilities, having started on the Mistborn as well and looking into others. I feel that he preserve some of the classical approach to fantasy, drinking from the fountain of Tolkien and others, diverging from the current GRRM more dark fantasy. I feel that sometimes it's too good vs evil, but he keeps surprising me with nice turns and deep philosophical and moral questions. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShardBreaker Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Welcome Julio, hope you enjoy your time here on the Shard. You'll probably want to stay away from cookies and avoid giving your breath away. Also for your enjoyment, have a free upvote! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ElephantEarwax Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 (edited) Welcome to the Shard @Raffaine. Have a cookie and an upvote. For initiation could you say, "My life to yours, my Breath become yours". Who is your favorite elantrian? Bad @ShardBreaker.

You see this poor fellow is part of the Drab Only Club, who has their cookies supplied by the Dark Alley. The dark alley is bad and they like Hemalurgy. If you enjoy driving iron spikes into peoples eyes, than feel free to join them, although I don't suggest it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Welcome! Just so you're aware, this forum is full of spoilers. If you don't know who Sazed is, or what his new full-time job is, then you'll have to be vigilant if you want to avoid having plot points ruined. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ElephantEarwax Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 (edited) Fine is this a better cookie. @MacThorstenson I made a cookie. Edited April 6, 2018 by ElephantEarwax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacThorstenson Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 That is a beautiful cookie!!!! That looks delicious. I would eat it if it wasen't for the fact that I don't want more spikes gluten in my body right now. I'm on a diet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShardBreaker Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Ahhhh, I see. @ElephantEarwax, I have come to recent conclusions that the DA may not be as bad as they seem, although I still do not approve of hemealurgy. Also, who are the colorful proprietors? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ElephantEarwax Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Me. I have 11 breaths. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShardBreaker Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 And who's breaths are these, may I ask? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ElephantEarwax Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 I forgot. If you look through the intro threads you'll find someone give me breath occasionally and that is where it comes from. My ---10--- is how many breaths have been given to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raffaine Posted April 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Thanks everybody, really warm welcomes here ... Although the cookies look pretty good, I'll skip this time ... not very hungry. BTW, thanks Archer for the explanations, I was feeling really lost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eating the cookies here or giving away your breath is akin to selling your soul to the devil. No matter what anyone tells you, DO NOT DO THIS! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
