Spren of Kindness

I nominate @Channelknight Fadran, the current Hegemon of the World!

@Ramona Tehradin, I completely agree, especially about the 'prolonged periods of lingering gloom', I've had those too, and Kaladin was incredibly inspiring when that was happening.

I usually do a quick rundown of the three WOK mains - Kaladin was a soldier, but has become a slave, Shallan is a thief and student to a princess, and Dalinar is a former warlord questioning his society while they question his sanity. They're experiencing events that herald world shaking changes.

I'm kind of expecting him to go crazy. He'll continue to deny his pain, and that he made the choices he did, until it drives him insane. As to what happens after that, I don't know. Maybe he'll go after Kaladin one last time, maybe he'll just leave the area. I could see that happening as an interesting narrative choice for the second arc. Maybe Odium will make him his champion, though that seems unlikely.

Welcome to the Shard! Who is your favorite character in Era II?

I love that idea.

“I am an artist,” Wit said. “I should thank you not to demean me by insisting my art must be trying to accomplish something.”

Martin climbs up the ladder, glancing along the wall to see if anyone sees them.

A couple times. I like to skate across hardwood floors in socks like an Edgedancer.

I put my ketek for him on the wall next to him in his Bridge Four uniform.

My implausible theory is that it has something to do with the vision Dalinar sent Kaladin right before the Fourth Ideal. If I'm being serious, I have no idea. But it's definitely coming back.

I used to think he looked like Kaladin.

Thank you!
