  1. If Sharders were puppies...what would they be like? Do as many as you want, of anyone Inspired by me saying Ark would be one of those dogs who barks a lot and is super energetic and always wants to play, after being given him by the Nightwatcher.
  2. I was doing some thinking today in the car during my re[listen] and decided something about Puppy. For those who don't follow, Puppy is the tentative name for Shallan's spren, as he acts just like a puppy and no other animal. In the new chapters, Jasnah names him a liespren. We also have a WoB that Puppy is a truthspren (though it sounds as though Brandon was making a joke). Moreover, we believe it is pre-puppiness Puppy who asks Shallan to reveal a truth and tells her that it has been a long time, but he is ready to "change" when she is in Shadesmar. This obviously means Soulcast, so I assume it's Puppy. We believe that these bondable spren are attracted to the very attributes they are named after, as well as those listed on the Ars Arcanum. Shallan is not very truthful though. So I think "truthspren" is out. She is a bit of a liar- hell she has some huge lies ready to be revealed - but I find it hard to believe that one KR Order is going to be based on everyone hiding murders and that sort of thing. So here is what I decided on, and personally I like it a lot: The term "liar" is being used in an alternative way to the definition we give it normally. You could throw the liar title onto a magician or a fiction author with the right definition. I think Puppy was goading her into using it to come to terms with what she will do. She is going to be an Illusionist by everyone's best guess. It is going to be a fundamental component of her abilities to create lies and create them well. (As far as her secondary attribute goes, Honesty, I think her ability to lie so convincingly will cause her problems unless she can prove to others that she will be honest enough to trust. I think it will come in time.) In the same way I can see honor being a critical component of Protecting, while Leading is a result of honor. There are many leaders who don't have honor in this series, but because of their nobility. Kaladin will gain Leadership and has gained leadership because of his honor and protection of others. I would be extremely pleased if there ended up being a system to this where the Surgebinder started with their primary attribute, that attracted their spren, and as a result they grew into their secondary attribute. I'm less sure about Lift and Wyndle, but I think the same can be said. She starts out with a natural ability to be Loving which draws in Wyndle, and now that they are together, she appears to be developing a passion for healing. If this is all already known or assumed, the purpose of this post was almost more to say that this is the reason I love Brandon Sanderson books. Systems!
