Brandon has said that the wold, and most aspects of Aether of Night is a part of the Cosmere, but that the story that he wrote about it wasn’t canon, like characters and stuff.

Okay, @Argent, so are we assuming that the Bonsmiths have the cohesion surge now? And that cohesion and tension switch places? Or did the power itself change and just the names stayed the same? I feel like if the names didn’t change it would make it confusing, as cohesion is usually used to mean the joining of two similar things, which would actually make a lot more sense that the bondsmiths should have cohesion as opposed to tension.

So based on a WoB about the Willshapers we know roughly what cohesion can do. Also I believe that we know the physical aspect for transportation can transport you into the cognitive realm. https://wob.coppermind.net/events/223-words-of-radiance-seattle-signing/#e6061

Oh wow, thanks for that @Calderis, that's new info for me. Still, I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't mess too much with my theory. I'm kind of assuming that for the 9 unmade there isn't a Bondsmith foil anyways.

Wait really? I don't know why, but I was under the impression that all the Bondsmiths had to bond with the Stormfather which was one of the reasons that Dalinar wouldn't have a blade.

Based on what we have learned about Re-Shephir in the latest chapter I've come up with a theory, could the Unmade all be modeled after the spren of the Night Radiants? To me it would make sense because there are 9 Unmade and with the Bondsmiths only bonding to the Stormfather there would be 9 "naturally occurring" spren. With Re-Shephir being discribed as a messed up kind of creationspren, I think that the other Unmade will be much like the other Orders' spren, only made by Odium.

Was that in the right topic?

@8giraffe8 Oh haha I completely over looked that

@Calderis I think I remember that in one of Szeth's pov scenes he says something about how because of the honorblade just holding Stormlight was less efficient. This makes me think that even if someone were to have a Nahel bond then it wouldn't matter because the honorblade's effectiveness in holding Stormlight would override the Nahel bond. Thinking about it I'm not actually sure if multiple honorblades would change the effectiveness.

Doesn't it say in every major work? If so that might be because Sixth of the Dusk isn't a full novel, but I'm not sure as that's one of the only Cosmere pieces that I haven't read.

Yea I'd asume it would be possible, but bonding an honorblade reduces your efficiency when using stormlight so two of them would be even worse.

Yes! The Lopen all the way! If he had the surge of transportation could you imagine how much fun it would be to watch him.

I believe that somewhere there was a Dysian that had said they were alive before the Radiants fall (maybe Edgedancer?) this makes it very possible for the Aimians to be immortal, which is my personal opinion.

I got Willshaper which I think is pretty accurate. I really like to try new things and hobbies come and go for me so it definitely fits.

@Extesian thanks for that explanation, that clears up quite a bit for me.
