redgarlic68 Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) So, when Dalinar goes to Vedenar the smoke/Thrill give him an anxiety attack and does his best to escape. Obviously he has no sword, and therefore... Quote Dalinar growled. He felt something he could touch, something beyond places. The power that bound worlds together. His power. Wait, the Stormfather said. This is not right! Dalinar ignored him, reaching beyond and pulling power through. Something bright white manifested in his hand, and he rammed it into the keyhole. This thing makes the Oathgate work. Now, what the hell was it? A manifestation of the Stormfather? Did Dalinar pull a Rand and use the enemy's power? Something else?

CaptainRyan Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Great question. I, too, am wondering what this is. Does it foreshadow his later Ascension? Was it, for some reason, Odium's power? I'm interested in seeing the speculation of others. Btw, minor point @redgarlic68, but you need to put [OB] at the start of the title of this thread.

RShara Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Hmmm, I thought it was Dalinar forcing the Stormfather to form into a Shardblade of some sort. But maybe he somehow touched a piece of Adonalsium himself? Or a piece of the Spiritual Realm? Dalinar as the new Adonalsium would be pretty awesome.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I figured too. I thought he somehow forced (part of) the Stormfather to manifest as a Shardblade. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeakoftheDeval Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Originally I thought it was just making a stormfatherblade but I feel like if that happened once it would've happened again at least one more time- looking back on it I feel a much more logical explanation was that this foreshadowed his Ascension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuantumSpren Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 I think he was touching the spiritual realm (something beyond places) but doing so was straining his bond with the Stormfather as he hadn't said the next oath yet. (Kind of like Syl forcing Kaladin stormlight in WoR) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
