Was listening to the 17th shard podcast about rosharan organizations and had a crazy theory about the envisagers the other day.
So we know for sure there is a kandra worldhopper on roshar. So the theory is that a kandra goes to roshar around the time of the recreance and sees what happens and thinks that roshar needs these radiants or else humanity is doomed. So they go about it by starting the envisages, and sends people through these hellish tasks assuming that radiants are made like allomancers and snapping through traumatic events. Let me know what you think, its pretty crazy but i feel like its a possibility.
