Posted July 2, 2015 I'm working on a new theory, but there's a needed reference that eludes me. I could swear that I read an interview, Q&A, AMA or signing report with Brandon in which he stated that the First Ideal of the Knights Radiant ("Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination") constituted the major theme of the Stormlight Archive series. However, for the life of me I can't find this anywhere. Am I crazy? Does anyone else remember Brandon making such a statement? Can anyone help me find the reference I'm seeking? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2015 Try the interview data base. Sorry, that's all I can say. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2015 I don't recall any such WoB. I just took a quick look through things and couldn't find it either, I'm afraid. Perhaps he did it on the TWG forums? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 8, 2015 I've never been to the TWG forums. It's possible I'm misremembering; it wouldn't be the first time. It's not central to my theory, just something that would be a useful reference. Thanks for trying to help, guys. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
