https://brandonsanderson.com/officially-announcing-skyward/ So it looks like its gonna be non-cosmere but about dragons!

1) Why would it be weird that the Stormform would summon a cure for THEIR people. That sounds exactly like what they would do! 2) The Stormfather wasnt trying to prevent healing of a people as much as he was trying to prevent the healing of a people that are used as a tool and weapon of Odium. Yes, the parshmen have their own right to live, but from what we have seen, they are very much easily swayed to be transformed into Voidbringers. Either by manipulating them or by force. 3) You say there is a degree of free will, but we know from Eshonai's experience that it was forced on her at a certain point and she is trapped.

im not certain why anyone thinks it matters where she was coming from and who she could have run into along the way. Shes an Elsecaller!! She dosent have to take a path to or from anywhere and wouldnt meet anyone "on the way". She would be specifically going to them.

i think the "they were people" is speculation on Shallan's part. Im still partial to the Unmade having been Dawnsingers. Which Im thinking were basically ancient super-spren, possibly with more self-awareness which would make them more person-like.

So first, i did like that theory and im glad its kinda been supported now. Second, i like your idea that what chased Kal was the VB Skybreaker, not Stormform. Third, i dont think he will be able summon highstorms. Too destructive, like @Head Crabs said. However, i do think this will expand into larger control of storms and redirection of them.

YAAAAASSSS!!!! ALL HAIL THE RETURN OF JASNAH!!!!

@Calderis Well darn. Could it be Shardic resonance?

Glad to have you on board! And yea, all our theories are lacking information, we are all grasping at straws for the next month. EDIT: and while this isnt proof, if in fact the Unmade were the Dawnsingers, then it also makes sense why they were called Dawnsingers because they were the source of the Rhythms. It also makes since that the Listeners had more access to the Rhythms, because they werent corrupted yet. Once they became corrupted, their Rhythms became more Void-y and now that the Listeners rejected them outright. they only have access to the most basic of Rhythms (maybe though the final Dawnsinger that wasnt corrupted into Unmade?).

It came around a few weeks ago. I happen to like it.

@Wreith Well if we hold by the theory that the Dawnsingers became the Unmade...then they would have been there since the beginning with the Listeners as well

That ability sounds Bondsmith-y to me.

New thought i just had, could the Rhythms be something akin to the Thrill? As in it is sourced from Unmade?

Are we certain that Ialia can see the chicken? To her, Mraize is just another solider. Why would he have a chicken on him? Wouldnt she find that strange? What if it is an Aviar and is disguising itself to not be seen, except by Shallan (either because shes a Ghostblood or because shes a Lightweaver?)

1) what is 'better'? nothing says it will be better. it says a new world will be made. This sounds like an evil prophecy promising destruction of a world in order to create a new one under a new vision. 2) while ill agree that the new storm is probably the Everstorm, but where can you assume that the listeners wont end up voidbringers? I dont necessarily disagree, but i just dont see where to assume that from these quotes. 3) id go with the thought about their bond being their form of surgebinding. not that they are going to somehow also gain the surges of humans 4) i think this requite just means that the Odium will be forced to return and to name his Champion. He wont be able to resist the challenge.

Whats with the yellow stones coming up to act as footing? Sounds Thunderclast-y to me.

I happen to think his boon was making the memories go away. Something dramatic like Dalinar breaking down and screaming "MAKE IT ALL GO AWAY!" This would mean we still dont know the curse. As for why is it coming back? im in the idea camp that it has something to do with fabrials. As much as Navani knows, she really doesnt know about the powers she is messing with.

Am i the only one that thought it was a spren in disguise? We know that pattern can be sen by anyone, why cant this be a spren that can be seen and change its physical form? This would also open Mraize to either being a KR or possibly bonded to Voidspren.

@Nymeros @frozndevl Where is this "red tinted" eye color thing coming from? I dont remember the source for this. If this is true does that mean there is some relation to the spren of the dustbringers and the storm spren?

I'm not 100% why, but my initial gut reaction was "Rial is Mraize". Thoughts? EDIT: well after the next chapters, im wrong lol.

I think he will end up Odium's champion. Dalinar even expresses something "familiar" about the champion in the vision. He will be exiled for his crime, come back trying to make amends, see Shallan and Kaladin together and will go full Odium.

We dont know how a Windrunners abilities would necessarily work in Shadesmar

I agree that it was justified, but Adlon didn't use that language. He didn't do that in a moment of justice seeking, he did that in a moment of boiling anger. As for the WoB, I'm not a scholar of that knowledge, so that's new to me. We will hav to see how it develops then. If he's not under his influence now he could be later.

More important to mention, Adolin is the one of the only characters we seen give in to deep seated hatred. Kaladin had true hatred Amram but never acted so blatantly on it and felt it was justice (Skybreaker) that should determine his fate. Adolin killed Sadeas not due to judging him as evil, but because of personal hatred (Odium).

Or it could be the cracks between the Cognitive and Physical realms have widened now that people are starting to bond spren again. Thereby, other spren are able to show themselves more often. It might not be a location thing. Edit: a word

We didnt even see a Voidform parshman in the area Kaladin was scouting. We know the townspeople saw a few "red lights" but could that have been something else? What forms are these parshmen holding anyway? It wasnt warform, but could it have been workform? I remember we had a theory running that the Everstorm doesnt necessarily bestow Stormform and could just give any of the basic forms if the parshman resisted.
