bmcclure7 Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Was the Listening to shard cast, They seem to think that the entire aether's system is getting a rework and that entire aethers will be removed, Yet I see nothing to suggest this. Brandon Sanderson himself has said that the system Is one of the few things that work in the modern cosmere. More importantly I don't see how Any of the Aethers wouldn't fit in the modern cosmere. What are your guys's thoughts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frustration Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Brandon has said that not all Aethers made the cut Spoiler Questioner Are there still six different types of Aethers in current canon? Or has that changed? Brandon Sanderson They have expanded. I’m using the Aethers behind the scenes for a lot of space age things. And because I’m doing that, I am adding in a few more Aethers. There’s going to be some limits on this. I’m tweaking which Aethers I’m actually making, ‘cause some of them didn’t work as well as other ones. There will end up being more, but I won’t canonize the number until I have the Aether book ready to release. Waterstones RoW Release Event (Nov. 18, 2020) Personally I think Beastarian never fit the system, I'm fully convinced it's gone or reworked entirely, and glad for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree that it felt like it never truly fit, but I'm hoping for a rework, because I really like the base idea of it and would love for it to still be canon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacrossedeamon Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Ferrous also seems like it will be reworked. I assume it will just generate metal instead of turn its user into a corpate. Bestarin will probably still exist since I assume the pairing will still be going on between Aethers but I assume that one will also be tweaked, possibly even grosser now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair he said tweaked, Not redo entirely. And rosite is still in as is midnight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if this could be another sign of connection to the essences? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashbringer Posted February 2, 2023 Report Share Posted February 2, 2023 Try not to post multiple times in a row, it makes things messy. Also the Shardcast mentioned Rosite was called Amberite in Aether of Night, it just functioned the same way. And was rose, and not amber. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
