Esquirlas del Cosmere Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 Hi there! I have only read Elantris (and Sel stories) and Warbreaker, and I'm about to get into Scadrial. But, as it is, I have read as well the first 5 chapters Brando gave us of the Secret Project 1, and it mentions aethers... What do you guys think? I would love to know a bit more, and if it strictly isn't spoiler... Could I read Aether of Night (knowing it isn't canon) without spoiling any other cosmere content that is canon? Thank you so much!! Also, PD: I know since I read it somewhere that aethers are mentioned in Oathbringer, but know no more than that. 0 Quote Link to comment

Portions of the unpublished Aether of Night were used in Mistborn, but changed significantly when moved over to The Final Empire trilogy. Some worldbuilding details were also used in Warbreaker. The Aethers themselves have changed a few times. IIRC the canon version that eventually appears in published works (and cameos in Oathbringer) is the third or fourth major revision of what Aethers are and how they work. Which also means that while there isn't much "spoilery" about the Aethers in AoN, you also won't learn much that applies. I have not read any of the Secret Project spoilers, so I can't comment on how much impact reading AoN would have there. . . Edited December 18, 2022 by Treamayne Ref 0 Quote Link to comment
Frustration Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 The only thing AoN might spoil about SP 1 is the way certain aether's may work. I wouldn't worry about it. 0 Quote Link to comment
