  1. In AoL Wax says Do we have any examples of the Law of Sixteen in nature?
  2. Available to be purchased at your local Kredik Shaw retailer and the gift shop at the Conventicle of Seran.
  3. Know what I'm sleep deprived but underwater volcanoes might make more sense
  4. Is Roshar's water level draining? More islands in the archipelagos are appearing since the silver kingdoms epoch as well as the existing islands become larger.
  5. The form of the investiture doesn’t matter, but if a pool in scadrial were to be soulcast into godmetal, could a mistborn not burn the godmetal, removing the investiture, similar to what Elend and his band of atium mistings did to the body of ruin. Furthermore, could this removal of investiture weaken the bearer of the shard?
  6. in the epigraphs of WoK the writer, presumably Hoid, states Given that this letter is most likely written by Hoid, and Hoid is thought to be the bearer of the first gem, it is safe to assume at this point that the element is the first gem. This quote leads me to assume that the first gem currently resides WITHIN Hoids body. We know Hoid has incredible regenerative properties, and according to a WOB somewhere that Hoid is ridiculously hard to kill, hiding the gem inside himself may have been seen as a relatively safe hiding place for it.
  7. I ran across a post stating that with a sufficient amount of a shards “shard pool”, you may be able to soulcast that liquid into that shard’s godmetal. Assuming that this is possible, would it be possible with enough power or enough soulcasters, to transmute an entire pool into the godmetal, possibly blocking access.?
  8. I had forgotten Nale remained hovering over Thaylen field. I kinda assumed he left as we never again heard from him.
  9. Possibility one doesn't explain how he used the surge of gravitation at the Battle of Thaylen Field. Possibility two I guess if possible, but I find it unlikely. Possibilty three is very interesting however. Perhaps Szeth's actions as truthless "killed" his spren the way Kaladin "killed" Sylphrena when he didn't do what she felt was right. The swearing of the oaths as a Skybreaker may have reawakened his forgotten spren, giving him the surge. Now that I think about it, perhaps bonding the spren is what caused Szeth to become truthless in the first place.
  10. In that case, you are implying that Nightblood acts as a highspren, which I can find no proof of.
  11. Then should we take it as a coincidence that Nightblood grants the surge of Gravitation to the squired Skybreaker?
  12. Yes, but why would bonding Nightblood grant the surges of the Skybreakers, and not, for example, the ability of the user to use Nalthis investiture?
  13. This has been bugging me for a long time. I believe that when Szeth released Jezrien's honorblade he should have lost the surges of the Order of Windrunners, as according to Sylphrena, "He's nothing without the sword," and "He is no longer the weapon he once was." (Chapter 86 of Words of Radiance) Anyway, when Szeth is restored by Nalan, he possesses Nightblood, which as far as I know grants access to no surges, he has bonded no spren I can find any mention of, and he should not possess any residual powers from using the honorblade that I can think of. Yet when he is serving his squireship at the purelake, he uses lashings. I suppose it is possible for a knight radiant to share his powers with those near him, Kaladin for example, so this could explain those actions. However, these powers apparently fade when the "giver" of these surges is no longer near the "recipient," and Szeth uses the lashings at the Battle of Thaylen Field when, as far as I can tell, nobody of the Order of Skybreakers is present. Furthermore, he continues on the swear the first through fourth ideals of the Skybreakers without bonding any spren I can think of. I can understand the possibility that he is swearing these without a spren and simply intends to take them to heart, and that he may have to reswear them if he receives a spren, but according to coppermind.net a budding skybreaker must bond a highspren before swearing the third oath, allowing him the surge of division. The fact that Szeth has no spren, and has no other way of obtaining the surge of gravitation I can think of, confuses me as to why he can use the surge of gravitation at the Battle of Thaylen Field. If anyone has a decent explanation for this, I would be very grateful, as I am unable to find one as of yet. It would also be helpful to know if he has access to the surge of division, as I can find no record of him using said surge. I currently believe he doesn't, but would be grateful for any proof.
