Has anyone else noticed how many dead brothers there are in the comer? Every one of the Stormlight archive flashback characters so far has a dead brother, plus Vin.
I can't say that other epic fantasies don't have dead brothers in them but it still seams to be one of Brandons favorite devises. Honestly one on the things I like about the upcoming Venli flashbacks is the presence of a dead sister for a change.
