I have always been under the impression a "Warrior" is someone who fights without needing to follow orders or rules of engagement. Whereas a "Soldier" is a warrior that follows orders and ethical code of conduct when it comes to fighting. We see that with Kaladin, someone who follows orders with fervor and does what he is told.

The second I saw the flower design I realized how close it looked to the Ghostblood symbol. It is such a fitting touch and brings such a deeper meaning to logo. Especially since people gotta get it tattooed onto them. I am sure there is so much more meaning to it now.

You are doing the Stormfathers work! I know how hard it is to read out loud. I used to read to my dog to help me work on fixing my speech impediment. It is not easy at all but your are so committed! I wish I had that drive! The paint you feel is both the pain of glory and also your throat giving out.

I am so excited that we are getting Stormlight miniatures. I would love to get my hands on Mistborn minis as well. I would love to be able to make little diorama's.

Thank you so much Hippo! This means so much! I hope you have a fantastic day!

I started with Mistborn and loved it to death. I just did my big Mistborn reread.

I have done some Sanderson You Tube stuff. I would kill to do some Sanderson professional stuff.

Thank you very much! That means so much to me!

Hello everyone, My name is Suda! I have lurked on here for a while but never made a full introduction. I have been a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson's work for a very long time. When I am not delving into the Cosmere. I am working on feature films, short films and podcasts for a living. My favorite series is Stormlight and the messages and themes really hit him to me. I am very chill person but can get passionate about themes and deep dives. I hope to have a chance to interact with you all. Because it is a real please to meet more like minded people who love the same worlds as I do.

Here is a fun little PSA video I made for RoW. I hope you all enjoy it!

It really puts you in the mindset of talking about Mistborn. Luckily all the brave firefighters were able to contain the fire that night.

That is mighty kind of you to say thank you very much! I am curious what are some of the very important things and what are things you would love to see in a movie adaptation?

I made a small video talking about the changes Brandon wants to make within Mistborn and some of my own, including approaching certain aspects of the material. As I was recording this video, it was raining ash because a wildfire was near my house. I would love to hear what people think and what they would love to see in a Mistborn movie.

If you do die of laughter. My lawer told me that your loved ones or ghost can't sue me for man(s)laughter.

Your fine! I appreciate all feedback and I totally understand the critique. Every video I’m learning and improving! I have gotten a good response from the video overall but even I am finding ways to improve for the future.

Thank you for the advice, I am so used to editing podcasts and keeping the audio at a certain level I did not realize it was so loud. It is going to be changed in the future.

Thank you so much!

Thank you very much! Every time I hold a Stormlight book I feel like I’m gonna snap my wrists.

My friend and I made a little parody video. It was a lot of fun to put together. I would love to hear what people think.

Upon further consideration and research, I think you are right. I might have irresponsibly used the word genocide. I was basing it off of my understanding of how other Desolations have been perceived and how the prologue for Way of Kings gives that feeling that it has always been a pattern of sheer survival.

I think it is an impossibility during wartime where the very war is for your very survival, and you are in a small select group of people that can prevent all-out genocide. It might be an impossible standard, given the current situation.

He has thought about it. Especially considering letting Roshone die to solve their problems, but his better nature gets the best of him. Although I don't believe Lirin is hypocritical. Personally, I think that he holds his son into impossible standards. That I feel like if he really was in a life or death situation to protect his family again is where he would find himself in a huge moral conflict. This time we would most likely see it internalized through his POV and not from Kaladin.

I known people like Lirin, who hold certain people to impossible standards. Due to there own personal values or beliefs in certain things. Usually, they are deeply flawed people who don't follow their own advice. A good example of this is the first time Lirin sees the airship. It is discussed how it is a perfect device for war because you can move so many troops. However, the first thing Lirin says about it is how it would make a perfect mobile hospital instead of seeing it as a flying marvel. He understands the world differently compared to how Kaladin sees the world or anyone else is the Roshar. Seeing how we now have POV's from him. I would love to see what moral conflicts he is going to have, especially with his entire life being literally moved away.

I was reading through the new chapters, especially with the Lirin POV. I have noticed a lot of foreshadowing of Lirin having to come face to face with his own code. Can one kill to save lives? "There are two kinds of people in this world, son. Those who save lives and those who take lives ... . You can't protect by killing." -Way of Kings I think Lirin will be put in a situation where he will have to kill someone to save a life. Most likely against the Fused or a human adversary. I would find this to be super interesting because, as of right now, Lirin does not have radiant powers, but he still has sworn the oath of doing no harm. Brandon loves to explore the idea of people’s faith. May it be in religion or believing in something or a concept, seeing a Lirin POV chapter much like in Oathbring with chapter 84 with Kaladin’s internal perspective. How either Lirin will either live by his sworn oaths that he chastizes Kaladin about constantly or have to break them to save possibly Hesina or Oroden. It has been something I have been thinking about since reading the new chapters today. I wonder what will happen because I would be interested to see what the outcome might be if this occurs. What do you all think about this?
