  1. Alright first time ever creating a topic and this one is pretty straight forward (and I havent found anything on it). Could the "Thrill" that a lot of the characters feel during battle be an influence of Odium? The reason I bring this up is because, in rereading WoR, Sadeas says "The Thrill of battle surged within him, a blessed and beautiful strength," (page 346 WoR). He says this while standing admist the Parshendi he just slaughtered. Now this is a markedly different reaction then Dalinars in TWoK. In that story we saw him gradually become more and more disgusted by the Thrill, at points even forcing himself not to throw up after experiencing it. He kept getting a more adverse reaction to the Thrill, and notice how it's always a capitalized word in the story, the more he went towards accepting his role as a Bondsmith. So, to reiterate, is the Thrill a thing of Odium, and possibly a sign of going to his side?
  2. As far as their feelings towards each other are concerned I feel that they currently do like each other to varying degrees but I don't feel that it has blossomed to anything substantial. Shallan broke the ice around Kaladins boy/girl feelings so I think he's in a more puppy love faze, where Shallan feels that Kaladin is intriguing. I honestly don't believe that Sanderson is going to be so obvious in his relationship matching and thus I see these two ending in a type of Rand/Egwene affair (WoT). I will say if these two do end up getting together I'd have no problem with the romance, it just feels to easy to pick out. A thought that has been bugging me, however, is what about the prospect of Jasnah and Kaladin as a potential match? That could be an interesting romance.
