  1. Unless I totally misread/remember incorrectly, it was the scadrians who were the first ones to give the cinder king the cinder hearts. With it being further into the space age so that the scadrians are able to travel there by ship, I wonder if in that time Harmony has slipped in Discord. The cinder hearts are a result/by product of that change. I think we all look at the different shards as good and bad, but I think it has more to do with power. The charred are seen as "bad" and Discord is typically mentioned as good mainly from the phrase "His name shall be Discord, yet they shall love him for it." But I think it has less to do with good and bad investiture and who is wielding power that makes it for good or evil. Another theory that the scadrians are aware of Discord and know the cinder hearts come from him, so they gave them out further sow discord. (Although this conflicts with their supposed stated reason for being there and just observing)
  2. Been gone for a bit, but I haven't seen this question asked. Do we have any inclination which shard invested the planet? The only thought I had while reading is if there is a shard that is opposite whimsy. (From when the Greater Good mention they'd like to go to a place a little more whimsy) Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on how/who invested the planet.
  3. At the end of ROW I recall there was some speculation that when Odium took Hoid's memories it was a ploy by Hoid and he knew what was happening. I believe there was a WOB put out that shut down that idea and confirms that Hoid in fact did not know what had happened, but it was nice to see it canonized in Yumi and in quite a tactful way I might add. That is all.
  4. I was picturing doomsdayer types as the ones with the metal copies but I like the Bible-thumping (Founding-pounding) comparison.
  5. I find it ironic that the holy script that the scadrians have is the Words of Founding (which was written by sazed himself and left for the people) and yet there is never mention of a metal copy. After all the trouble that Sazed himself got into. The Lost Metal Spoiler If something were to ever happen that Ruin started gaining more control I could see this as a large oversight.

  10. I believe that Sazed is both. That's why he can ascend, cause he's connected to both. Allomany = Preservation. Hemalurgy = Ruin. Feruchemy = Preservation + Ruin. Yes, he is more of a protector before Tindwyl's death, but he is very much both. This is just my two cents here so take it for what you will, but I don't think that Preservation was the one who set up the Prophecies. I could be wrong, but I don't believe that he was the one to do that. It never once mentions Harmony. (Although it does Discord). I think that Sazed is indeed who it was intended for, just not coming from Preservation.
  11. Rereading Words of Radiance with my wife and I noticed something from when pattern and Shallan are talking. It says that there were others.. plural. Not another. Then he mentioned it is a pattern. We know that Testament was bonded earlier, but I was just wondering if there are theories about how more spren have bonded with Shallan? Sanderson has said that her progress isn't quite a straight line, more like two steps forward and one step back. Maybe she has to get over the breaking of many oaths, not just a singular one? Anyway, just wondering if the multiple previous spren has been a thought others have had before?
  12. Nope Yep......... Should have saved that clue for last. Was rereading and Taravangian refers to szeth as Seth son Neturo to which he says to not profane his father's name by including it next to his. Thought it would be a little harder than that.. sorry Take it away
  13. I'll take it. 1)This person has been referred to many times but we've never met them.
