Chapter 5

This is my reaction blog for Wind and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Note: I just realized that I’ve been calling the book Winds and Truth (plural) when it’s really just Wind. That’s important given what we have learned about Wind the being, so I’ll adjust going forward and correct the overall blog title. Title: What Might Still Be First thought is a reference to Testament, second thought is something to do with Shallan’s aspects. Probably it’s none of those. Icons

Chapter 4

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Title: Listening Either Edgedancers or actual Listeners make sense here, but my actual prediction is to do with Navani listening to the Sibling and working to accommodate them. Icons: Jester Worldhoppers in the house. This is most commonly Wit, but my prediction/hope is that this is going to be a surprise appearance by Zahel, since the prologue thrust his importance in our faces. Epigraph: “I h

Chapter 3

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Title: The Cost of Heroism Combined with the icon of Kelek and that this is a Shallan chapter, I assume we’re getting a conversation with Restares. Icon: Kelek Epigraph: Okay, this one is pretty informative. The epigraphs are speaking of very recent events (Taravangian’s displacement of Rayse as Odium’s vessel) so the text must be a new work. THe Wind is apparently going to vanish at some point,

Chapter 2

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Title: Taking the Next Step Lots of things this could mean, I don’t have a good guess for which one it’s suggesting for this chapter Icon: Vedel Can I hope this means Lift will show up? Alternatively this could be about the attribute of healing, and Kal is going to start mending things more with Lirin and continue improving his mental health. Epigraph: Okay, the Wind is getting capital letters,

Chapter 1

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Title: Unfamiliar Ground Possibly speaking about the new truce between Kaladin and the listeners under Leshwi and Venli? Icons: Pali Dare I hope for this to refer to Rlain’s new Truthwatcher status? Epigraph: Okay, first up we have the in-world book being titled Knights of Wind and Truth, but the Stormlight book is just the second half of that? I’m not complaining, but wasn’t the point to keep

Shallan's Sketchbook - Part I

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Looks like we’re getting Kaladin and Shallan to start with. Not gonna lie, I’m more excited for seeing Navani in Kaladin’s sections than for the man himself. On the other hand, I am stoked to find out what’s going on with Shallan’s mental balance and with Maya. Shallan’s Sketchbook Part I And we get art right away! This feels less detailed than usual. A more hurried sketch? Or an effect of her merg

Prologue

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.    Alright, we’re into the book proper, now. Time for our final look at Gavilar’s final day, this time from the perspective of the man himself. It’s shocking to me how many secrets are left to reveal about the night in question after seeing so many different elements of the assassination and its participants. How much did Gavilar actually know, and what was he truly working toward? (The Sons of Honor sti

Endpages and Frontmatter

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.  Endpages Wait a minute. Wait just a minute! What the what? This is the Nightwatcher standing by Cultivation. This is not a herald, this is one of the gods. Presumably then we have another one on the front. Surely not Odium, that does not match his description. Is this honor? Is this Tanavast? Checking the illustration list, yes to both. Honor and Cultivation are accompanied here by Talenel and Battah.

The Cover

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Beware of spoilers! Index post here.    I discovered when reviewing my previous blog that the links I created at the time to the artwork hosted on Brandon’s site are now broken. Dragonsteel continues to host the artwork from the books, but I don’t have confidence in those addresses remaining static, so I’ll refrain from linking the official art and simply trust that you have a hard copy to reference or can find it online.

Pre-reading commentary

This is my reaction blog for Winds and Truth. Index post here. (No spoilers for Winds and Truth this post, but the rest of the cosmere is fair game.) This post is for my expectations and predictions. Got to get these etched in metal before I’m tainted with anything like actual content. First, I will note that unlike the other Stormlight books, I’ve only read Rhythm once so far. I ran out of time for a true reread, and when I tried to go through the audiobook I had to quit several chapt

0. The Irrational Sequence

The Irrational Sequence, sometimes erroneously referred to as just Sequence, was an entity of unknown origin that resided long ago in an unknown realm. It is unclear whether that realm was within The Longest Thread, or somewhere beyond. It was the origin of Sequence, Ivisyre, Fuzzy, and Cardinal. As it never achieved Narrator or even character status, not much is known about it, and it is assumed that everybody who experienced it from an outside perspective has long since perished. Additionally,

X's avatar took a deep breath and rounded the corner. A few feet away, Melody was tied to a tree, gagged, and blindfolded. Y stood close beside, her knives held almost casually in each hand. "You made it," she called to X's avatar. She smiled. "It seems the girl is worth something to you after all." X's avatar ignored Y. "Melody," he called. "Are you alright?" Melody looked around as if to ascertain the direction from which the voice came. She seemed scared, and she pulled fa

The Emperor. A history.

Full Title: The Emperor, Kahmir, Bearer of the Golden Right, Holder of the Planar Throne. The Emperor is a man of ascension. He had started his journey to where he is now, from when he was a soldier for the Aegis of Celestia (A faction that were zealots for their Gods of the higher planes). The Emperor, once a humble servant of the Celestial Gods, began rapidly rising the ranks of the Aegis of Celestia. As he rose in the ranks, he started to become noticed by the Council of the Golden Right

4. Cardinal

Cardinal, historically known as  Sapphire , was one of the splinters of the Irrational Sequence alongside Sequence, Fuzzy, Ivisyre. He was a quiet, reserved, and shy person, and typically stayed not only out of trouble, but out of everything in general. He often struggled to socialize, and was quite awkward in conversation. Out of the four splinters of the Irrational Sequence, he received the least of anything, causing him to be a bit dull. Except for creativity and artistry though, which he had

3. Fuzzy

Fuzzemals Fluffinator Gargantua The First, Fuzzy for short, and historically  Gold , was one of the Irrational Sequence's splinters, and by far the cheeriest. Always known for her optimism and whimsy, she was not only willing, but excited to get to know everyone she could, and loved to make friends. She was the kindest and most empathetic person you'd ever meet, always wanting to make people happy. As the splinter with by far the most positivity, she was quite free spirited, always having lots o

2. Ivisyre

Ivisyre, formerly known as Everyone and historically known as  Crimson , is a chaotic and unpredictable splinter of the Irrational Sequence and a Narrator on The Longest Thread. Smug, cunning, and inherently evil, Ivisyre's motives are never really known. Their goal changes frequently, their allegiance flip-flopping between good and evil at an unpredictable rate. They show little mercy and no remorse, killing and inflicting pain frequently and seemingly for no reason. By far containing the most

1. Sequence

Sequence, occasionally known as Narrator Sequence and historically known as  Gray , was a former Narrator on The Longest Thread, and a figure of wisdom, peace, and joy, nearly always maintaining a positive and upbeat attitude, and always willing to help out those who need it. Alternatively, she could be very formidable and quite powerful when provoked. Some of the chaotic energy from her distant past could resurface at times. As far as she, or anyone else knows, she was the oldest Narrator on th

I, the brave adventurer will be your guide today, helping you to understand the intricate and formerly unwritten rules that guide all those who want to meet the elusive figure known as the Dreamsmith.

Tim the Gentle Hunchback: Power of the Not-Spirit

Tim pulled aside the rock at the entrance to his cave, dragging his reminder staff along with. The hunchback stepped outside of his small cave, and stared up at the sun until his eyes bled. Bled? He frowned, but then giggled. He wasn’t short. At least, not in the same ways. But there was something new. The gentle hunchback had come short when attempting to remind the sun of people’s eyes. Tim gave a small dance, shaking the staff and hollering gibberish. The skulls of the not-so-nice t

Tim the Gentle Hunchback: Short on Cash

Once upon a time, there was a man named Tim. Now, Tim was short in multiple senses. Three, to be exact. His name, Tim, was short for Timoolra; he himself was not exactly very tall; and he was short on change. And so, he exited his home, rolling aside the stone that capped his small cave under the wall and striding into the sun. As he saw it, he flinched, looking up at the sun, one he hadn’t seen before in his life. He stared up at it, giggling. Tim leapt at the sun, attempting to kindly rem
