Isles of the Emberdark Reading Discussion
Green Hoodie Mistborn replied to AonEne's topic in Cosmere Discussion
It is present on the Shadesmar map for the Sea of Lost Lights that Nazh made (https://coppermind.net/w/images/Sea_of_Lost_Lights.jpg) But now I need to do word searches in my other Cosmere books to see if there are references I've missed- 101 replies

Given that Sleepless (Dysian Amians) are capable of forming a Radiant Bond, I have to believe that Siah are as well! Also yeah, I don't know that there is a line necessarily. Some WoB even hint that cognitive shadows might be able to form Nahael bonds in the right circumstances, so that seems pretty wild and wide to me

This a very interesting catch, great job! I mean figgldygrak obviously is an anagram for "dark giggly f" but the idea that it could be a Yolish origin word that somehow survived to multiple planets is interesting. If it's a cipher it is a very short one. My heart of hearts tells me that Brandon (maybe via Peter) noted how much people were paying attention to figgldygrak and decided to keep using it as a tongue in cheek joke to us

Mistborn Allomantic Abilities - How do they look visually?
Green Hoodie Mistborn replied to sostington's topic in Mistborn
Personally I hope that if we ever get an adaptation we only see the lines/etc when a misting/mistborn is burning iron/steel, but I hope we get the visual clues of the mist swirling and I'd be open to really subtle low tone pulses in the soundtrack kind of thing -
Theory on Shallan and Radiant
Green Hoodie Mistborn replied to cosmeredoug_30's topic in Stormlight Archive
Wait! We know for sure it was a Skybreaker acolyte who was present when Shallan killed her mom? or is it still conjecture based on Oathbringer letter and Shallan's words to Hoid? -
I hope we find out something intereting! though we've seen it already (Miles), and WoB says that the only real way to become a Feruchemy Savant would be to compound the Feruchemy attribute which I doubt you can do while asleep But maybe unsealed medallions can help push the limits on that and we can see some F-savants!

Haha, I like this game Have the awake crew constantly eating to fill up F-Bendalloy minds and swap them IN so the sleeping crew has the food and nutrients they need to sustain even at lower metabolic rates.

I know the Space Era will have FTL in some way, shape, or form. BUT, does that negate the need for some sort of (very common) sci-fi stasis sleep? You have to travel at many multiples the speed of light to make real space travel possible. What if their FTL is only 3 or 4x? It'd still take months to travel places right? Unsealed F-Bronze medallion systems could help with that in some way. Some of the crew sleep, storing wakefulness, and when the medallion or metalmind is full, the awake crew swap empty ones out to keep the crew asleep and use the stored wakefulness to stay awake, crewing the ship?

Best Twinborn Powerset for a detective
Green Hoodie Mistborn replied to Stormtide_Leviathan's topic in Mistborn
I'd lean towards F-TIn and A-Pewter myself for a twinborn detective and just have them be an intelligent person so they can really get the most out of their enhanced senses when they tap Tin A-Pewter is just... you know detectives are going to need to fight, it's in every detective story basically, even Sherlock fights! Plus balance, enhanced healing, durability, endurance -
I feel like it would act like the Felix Felicis potion from Harry Potter where.... everything would just work out exactly as they wanted while they were still tapping it

Which Sanderson Book Next?
Green Hoodie Mistborn replied to Philomath's topic in General Brandon Discussion
I'd give them the Alcatraz books, they're awesome for kids. My 9 almost 10 yo is reading through them right now Frugal wizard is a bit weird as it deals with some pretty adult stuff towards the end of it but might be ok depending on the kid -
I think the point is that the Midnight Essences from Dalinar's visions and those from TotES are different completely. At least that is the implication that I read in the WoB I quoted. One are spawned from an Unmade (intelligent splinter of some shard probably honor "unmade" by Odium, at least my interpretation of them) vs a type of Aether which predate the shattering like Yolish Lightweaving does Personally, I don't think we'll ever know the name of the previous lightweaver as they're not critical to the story. They were able to trap the Unmade in the same way Dalinar did and Re-shepir feared Shallan would/could do, through Empathy for the Unmade. Riina doesn't scream "empathetic" in her appearances so far, so I struggle to believe that she'd have been capable of it enough to connect with and trap an Unmade
