I'm positive that the gemheart Kaladin and Shallan brought back from the time they spent in the chasms was supposed to be significant or at least utilized in the final scene between Kaladin and Szeth. The largest piece of evidence is that the original drafts of the cover had what looks to be a greenish gemheart in Kaladin's hand: The build up is good - they go fight a Chasmfiend, they kill it, decide to get the gemheart out, finally make it back - but then Kaladin tosses it on a counter or something and it isn't seen again. What is with that? Does anyone know or have a hypothesis as to why that idea was scrapped? I guess it might downplay Kaladin's abilities if he had the advantage of a giant Gemheart to siphon Stormlight from, but.... I don't know, it seems like it was swapped out to me.
