We see that Drabs are more susceptible to disease, however it is possible that the diseases are worse on Nalthis, or humans on Nalthis evolved to have a less good immune system since their Breaths helped protect them. Or humans on Nalthis with 1 Breath are just more resistant to disease then other humans. Any WoB?

Could a Connecter store connection from other objects? If they could, might they be able to remove the connections from the land and the Investiture? like with stormlight, could the Ghostbloods then accomplish their goal?

Brandon has said that Nightblood is the only exception to the Cosmere’s version of the laws of thermodynamics; he causes a net loss of investiture in the Cosmere. Doesn’t this also happen with people’s souls after death? Souls are made from Spiritual Realm investiture. If souls fly to the “Beyond,” doesn’t that also remove investiture from the Cosmere? There’s a WoB somewhere that soul’s investiture somehow gets recycled (IIRC, and I may not be). That suggests the God Beyond ISN’T “Beyond” or at least has a pipeline back to the Spiritual Realm once the investiture has been scrubbed clean of the soul’s Connections. Thoughts?

On Scadrial, Bronze Mistings can, with practice, determine what metal is being burned by the wavelength of the pulse. On Roshar, Lightweaving can apparently influence sound and light waves, and the Listeners Rhytms seem to play an important role in their society. On Sel, Raoden tries to understand some books that discuss something about measuring the wavelength of the Aons, or some such. Basically, waves play a large role in Invesiture, particularly in the different uses of Investiture in one magic system. Any thoughts? Any additions to this rough theory of the Cosmere would be invaluable.
