  1. But the part that doesn't seem to fit is why placement doesn't seem to matter for a kandra's blessings? Or maybe it does and the Lord Ruler/other kandra knew where to put the blessings.
  2. Perhaps the knowledge only known to Harmony has to do with the bindpoints of a kandra.
  3. Brandon, I'm a huge fan of yours. Originally I found out about you after you were chosen to finish The Wheel of Time, and since then you've become my favorite author. I have a few questions regarding mistwraiths: How intelligent is a mistwraith? Could you raise and train mistwraiths like dogs or horses, controlling what forms they take by the bones you give them? Would you be able to train yourself a horsewraith steed by giving it only the bones of a horse? What would happen if you gave it a spike imbued with steel allomancy? I'm assuming that wouldn't be enough to grant it sentience but could it then use steel powers? Can you give allomantic powers to a kandra? Whether or not any of my questions get answered, thanks for doing this.
  4. I have to say, I really like this cover art. It has a really neat style and its a very nice piece of art.
  5. Mistborn: Vin and Tensoon, I really liked seeing what the Kandra homeland and other Kandra were like Elantris: Raoden, it's been a while since I read Elantris, but I remember enjoying his chapters the most, so many cool things happening Warbreaker: Lightsong, that guy was hilarious WoK: Kaladin, probably would be my top pick out of all of the books
  6. Ok, scenario: there's a Keeper Mistborn who is spiked with atium used to take breaths. Then said Mistborn Keeper stores this investiture in a metalmind which he/she then burns. Would he/she then basically have unlimited breaths? And what if he/she did this with powers stolen from an elantrian? Or if they were to compound surgebinding or soulcasting like this?
  7. Chapter 72, page 637 at least of my book: "He didn't think. He didn't give Ruin time to react. Amid the thrill of killing the Hero of Ages, Ruin's control was weaker than it had ever been. Summoning all the will he had remaining, Marsh reached out. And ripped the earring from Vin's ear." The page before mentions Marsh being "fully in the throes of a blood frenzy." A few other times in the book, it mentions Ruin having less control when the Inquisitor/Koloss is in a blood frenzy, and it mentions Inquisitor Blood frenzy somewhere else too I'm pretty sure, can't remember where. I just finished the book again a week or two ago.
  8. There's also the Inquisitor bloodlust that they get into, part of the reason Marsh was able to break free from ruin long enough to pull Vin's earring out.
  9. Hmmm... perhaps. Would it be safe to assume that all/almost all of the skaa have noble blood somewhere in their history? And the Terrismen never interbred with the nobles so don't have any? Then the mist snaps 16% of those who do? That doesn't explain why the mist doesn't affect the nobles... The idea behind the mists I think I read somewhere that it brought out what even a beating couldn't, so why wouldn't the mists occasionally succeed where beatings failed for the nobles?
  10. But we decided that the mist snapping can't be inherited Allomancy, that it has to be activating the part of preservation that everyone has... so the hereditary part doesn't fit.
  11. So now where does Sazed's remark that nobles are unaffected by the mists come in...? And I think there might've been something about Terrismen not being affected either...
  12. Atium can be used to counter that, much like the guild navigators used spice in the Dune series. Atium + Duralimin or Atium + Nicrosil could be used possibly to chart a path.
  13. I think what Brandon was hinting at is that not only does the bubble bend time, it also bends space, hence the bullets getting deflected when they leave the bubble. Bending space is a key concept in warp travel in Star Trek.
