Gray to

Oh OK thank you guys

So I just finished book 6 The Lord of Chaos, and I have no idea who the Lord of Chaos is. Is it Demondred? Do we learn in a future book? I'm just confused as to how I missed this and it makes me worried that I missed other obvious stuff

So I've been listening to the Wheel of Time series for the first time with audiobooks so idk how to spell anyone's names I've been really enjoying the series and I just started book 4 the Shadow Rising. The one plot line im confused about is with The Children of the Light. I can't seem to remember who is who, their rank, and their relationships. So could you guys help me keep them all straight? Also I've only read up to the prologue of Book 4 so please don't share any info that's revealed after that. I know there's one Child who kidnapped Perrin and Egwene in Book one after they met Elaidas but I can't remember his name. I know there's one who is in charge of them all. Book 3 prologue was from his POV and he's plotting something but I can't remember. I know that Padan Fain is with him trying to manipulate things under a different name. I think Padan Fains alias is Moredeeth? I know there's a Child who is secretly a Dark Friend and hates Perrin. That was revealed in the Book 3 prologue when a half man talked to him I know there's a guy who died on Almoths Plain at the end of Book 2 and his son is trying to avenge him. I think his name is Bornhold? I dont really get what their goal is? Are they just killing anyone they think is against the Light? What is the Commander scheming? Again I'm only on the prologue of Book 4 so please no spoilers after that point. Just stuff I had forgotten before this point. Thank you!

I know this isn't possible, but I was rereading mistborn, and all I could think about was how what if Vin was trained by someone who didn't teach her how to trust? Someone who reinforced Reen's abuse? The first person who came to mind with that was Mraize and the Ghostbloods. So how do you guys think Vin would have turned out with that kind of environment?

Could you just list some of the important characters I'll meet in the beginning so that I won't spend too much time memorizing side characters who barely show up?

Months ago, I started the first Wheel of Time book, got bored, and dropped it. This happens a lot when I start a new series like Way of Kings of Game of Thrones. I just get overwhelmed by all the new names and locations. Could you guys tell me everything I need to know about the world and who the important characters are? No spoilers please. All I remember is a man turning into a mountain in the prologue and some sort of festival in chapter 1.

This is probably not a very important question, but its one that's been bugging throughout my quarantine reread. Why is Sadeas' camp so disorganized? His markets are sloppy and randomly put together, his soldiers go around without taking good care of their uniforms, and their disheveled environment encourages them to be unprofessional and drunk. Surely Sadeas knows that enforcing some rules would make his soldiers more effective? So why does he do it? The only reason I could think of was to be a contrast to Dalinar's army and show the war camps how needless his Codes are. But it seems to me that there are too many negatives in having a sloppy camp that makes proving a point worth it. And everyone know Dalinar has the best troops in the armies anyways, so why bother with it?

So let's say there's a person whose addicted to nicotine. Then, they bond with a spren and get access to stormlight healing. Like Teft, this person's addiction has become a part of his spiritual identity, so it can't be healed by stormlight. If this person smoked and then sucked in stormlight, would the stormlight remove the nicotine like it removed alcohol from Shallan? If it did wipe away the nicotine, would the surgebinder feel withdrawal symptoms, or would the stormlight prevent those symptoms? If stormlight didn't heal the withdrawal symptoms, what would happen if the surgebinder was a heroin addict, where the withdrawal symptoms could kill them? Would the stormlight actually cause the surgebinder to die? Or would it keep the surgebinder from dying, but also not heal the withdrawal symptoms, keeping them on the verge of death?

What does SR mean?

Quick question: Do we know if any of the unrevealed Shards are dead/splintered?

I know you can lower the difficulty mid battle, but I dont know if that's a permanent change or if you can switch it back to hard mode later. I've only played it on easy mode because of exactly what you said and it's only my second FE game, but then I realized it was VERY easy

I'm still pretty early in the game so no spoilers but what house are you in? Golden Deer all the way!

Seems like a serious health concern

Theres a bad stigma in Rosharan society against Releasers and I dont want us to share that stigma, so I would like to see Lirin become a Releaser so that not only could they show the world a good Releaser, but also one who avoids violence. And I could see him using division to remove dead/infected flesh seeing as how hes a surgeon and aahspren like to look inside things. Plus it would match what all the Hearthstone folk said about him doing surgery was "unnatural"

Alright I changed it a little bit

I hope cursing is allowed Kaladin: We need you to take us to Thaylen so I can save Dalinar Captain Ico: I refuse! I have to bring Syl to the capital Kal: Dalinar is a Bondsmith and he bonded to the Stormfather Ico:

Normally I'm a pretty nice guy, but if we're sharing popcorn, and I see you eat some before the movie starts....well you better be ready to face my rage

Sja-anat

Thanos wears his gauntlet on his left hand because he's secretly a devout Vorin woman and just wants to keep it covered. That's why he never takes it off

THANK YOU! That's been bothering me all day!

I dont know which forum is best for this, but there's a quote in my head that I can't remeber where I heard it, so I was hoping one of you guys know it. I think it was from one Brandon's books. It's something along the lines of: "You stand atop a single sheet of paper and remark at how much farther you can see than us." Or: "You look down on us from a single sheet of paper" It had something to do with standing on paper and thinking your better than everyone else

When I learned that Odium's vessel's name was Rayse, I tried to imagine what he looked like in my head, someone full of hate and anger. What I ended up with was an evil looking Kaladin. I thought this this while I was reading WoK for the first time, and he was really hateful then, so that's probably what influenced me like that. But it got me thinking: what if Kaladin picks up Odium's shard? Now that I've read the series a couple times, I realize that Kaladin feels more depression than hatred, so it's not likely, but I'm still holding out

Stormlight was my first Sanderson series and I didnt know about the Cosmere. So when I saw Hoid as Wit, I knew something was strange about him. My theory was that he was actually from Earth and that's how he knew about non Rosharsn things like bunny rabbits. Turns out I wasnt completely wrong. When I was first reading WoR and Kaladin was in jail after the 4v2 duel, I thought that deep down Amaram was a good person and would admit his crimes out of guilt, and maybe Kaladin would forgive him and they'd reform the Knights Radiants together. Boy was I wrong

Oh Stormfather, what have you done? Roshar will shake when Jasnah learns about Hemalurgy.

That's true. I guess I didnt consider enough about how much power there is in choosing which highprince gets which position. You could grant power to the ones most loyal to you to pin down the those who arent as loyal. That's a good observation. Ishar is known as the Herald of Luck. I wonder what that correlates to in government?
