This is probably the magic system I have the least compiled with, but it is very important to the rest of the books as it never really goes away - it just changes. There are certain things that remain constant, as seen in Era 3, when the Slumber preserves the Eternal King.
So.
There are two fountains of magic - the Deep, and the Flame.
Lemme explain.

I do really like the comparison between the traditional and modern styles, with a clear distinction drawn between the practicality of one versus the aristocratic finery of the other. The stiff, starched collar of the undershirt as well as what I’m imagining as gold thread adorning the sash of the modern dress in particular give a lot of character to the outfit. The open chested look with the weapons and trave

Title: Not Alone
This took me a minute to figure out because I was trying to figure out what the POV symbol was for. Who is a human-singer teamup? Renarin and Rlain, that’s who. Which means we might finally learn something about Renarin and his powers, or at least lay the foundation for his sub-order of enlightened Truthwatchers and how he and Rlain will get along.

Aelinor, infrequently and affectionately nicknamed Allie, is the first and only avatar of the Narrator Sequence. She's quiet and reserved, still unsure of her place in the thread, though not devoid of some dry humor at times. She's quite a skilled duelist and swordsman, though she does have a bit of a temper which can impede her abilities. On the exterior, she can seem quite uninterested or distracted, though she's very observant at all times and, surprisingly, can make some decent conversation
Chapter 1
Endings
“You could have helped them.” I accused Eof as we walked away from the mostly ruined town. Eof had teleported us directly back there, which was appreciated. Galbus had been in no condition to travel. He’d emerged from his stupor just long enough to tell the family of his betrothed about what had happened before slumping back into the bottomless depths of despair. “You could have warned the town, gotten me to help them earlier. Or you could have teleported me and Galbu
The Man who met Darkness
There once was a man who met darkness, upon a shadowy road.
This man feared not the darkness. For he was a man of mighty feats, heroic and bold.
The dark feared not the man. No room was there in its heart for fear, so full of lies untold.
The man cried out his challenge, raised his staff to fight. And the darkness fell before him, his power split the night.
As the man did stand in victory and the sun from skies unfold. It was then the dark
Rebus (last updated 2/4/25)
Rebus is very interesting… He’s close to main-character status, at least to me, so there may be some hedging here. Oh, and I probably have control of everything he does - it’s just method acting.
Appearance: Rebus is fairly tall, handsome, and has a lean, muscular build. He’s got dark hair and orange eyes, which are made endlessly deep with metamaterials. His outfits - in most cases either a long coat over loose, functional clothing or a suit of sleek armo

A Lift chapter! Huzzah! I saw the feast POV symbol and got confused for a moment. I’d almost forgotten which symbol was hers.

Not sure if Shallan is the obstacle here or if she’s facing one. Glad to see it is in fact a Shallan chapter, though. I rather expected a POV switch again.

Destruction from the fight, is my first guess, but maybe it’s for obedience. Or possibly Mraize or Iyatil’s spren makes them an alternate version of a Releaser/Dustbringer. Still guessing they’re Elsecallers, but we hav

Apparently Szeth’s mom Zeenid teaches painting in town. That’s got to be rather prestigious given the Shin respect fo

Title: Hunting the Hunter
Shallan doing her infiltration. At a guess this is suggesting she gets caught/recognized and Mraize does his gentleman antagonist thing and compliments her before trying for murder. We’ll see. Hopefully the chapter sticks with her long enough to progress the ghostblood thing and not just take us to the next cliffhanger. I’m looking forward to seeing how she handles the challenge of

Title: Purposeful Danger
See, the most likely/obvious interpretation of this is Shallan putting herself in danger for a purpose in attending this meeting. However we could all soon be purposefully dangerous in either threatening the ghostbloods overtly, or in the ghostbloods agenda using the danger that they pose to influence the course of events. That same interpretation could apply to other groups outside
1 Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
2 Then He said, "Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."
3 So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and aros

That’s one way to euphemize a likely death dojo. Until told otherwise, that’s how I will picture the honorblade training Szeth’s family got.

King of heralds, appropriate for a presumed introduction of honorblades and oaths, not to mention the extreme piety that Szeth presumably acquired from his family.
