  1. Maybe the 5th ideal will be related to the idea of sacrifice. “I accept that people may sacrifice themselves” or (stronger) “I accept that people may sacrifice themselves (or simply put themselves in danger) to protect me” or (even stronger, and I think that it is also a bit against what Windrunners stand for if not phrased correctly) “I accept that I might need to sacrifice some to protect all’.
  2. Hello, this is my first post in the forum and I was looking to discuss the following idea regarding the contest. In the Dawnshard book, Cord challenges the Sleepless to a fight, then states that she automatically wins for the following reason: they cannot harm her because she is descendant from a protected family line due to a pact with some gods. Her argument does not work then and there, because the Sleepless had not made such a pact with her family, and then she says that it must be some other gods. This is a huge unused argument to be dropped like this by BS for no reason. It could become relevant only regarding Rock’s family in Book 5, but what if this is to foreshadow how the contest of champions is going to go? Especially since another unused so far information is that Odium has been bound not to harm anyone born in Kharbranth or their families. So if Dalinar chooses such a person for a champion (maybe Kaladin falls in this category), then this person would automatically win, no? Or if Odium kills such a person unknowingly, then the repercussions of such an action might be disastrous for him.
