+Invocation Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Yeah, like Traveller said, Rlain is a common one. I'm all for him, to be honest. Let's let that poor dude get some metaphysical bread. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoWibble Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 Well, T is a plant, Vasher seems done with voices, so Navani or Rlain. R might be more under Cultivation's influence, but Cultivation might be more prone to choose a woman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That1GuySpencer Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 I think it would be a cool dynamic for Taravangian to be a bondsmith, maybe eventually evolving to be a foil for Dalinar. Taravangian's condition would probably affect the logistics of the bonding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWadehart Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 Rlain bonded to Nightwatcher Navani bonded to Sibling 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Taravangian and Dalinar are respected political figures, and if Taravangian became a bondsmith, they would both be bondsmiths. With Taravangian changing mental capacity each day, how he uses his radiant abilities could be altered; when he is less intelligent, he might not have the ability to access some.

Accessioning investiture takes intent not intelligence. I don't think "stupid" T lacks willpower. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aon Tia Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 Dear OP @Aragorn Can we not add Rlain and Navani to the poll? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWadehart Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 You should set up two separate votes. Who will bond the Sibling and who will bond the Nightwatcher? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toaster Retribution Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 Rock is another popular candidate. I think he and Rlain, or Navani. I was on the T train before OB, but I’m not sure anymore. Dont think Watcher or Sibling are going to be keen on bonding a guy who is working for Odium.

+Invocation Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 Rlain for Sibling, Navani for Nightwatcher. It seems to fit. The Sibling is somewhat of an outsider, from what we've been hinted at and from how the past Radiants talk about them, and Rlain can relate to that. Navani would fit with the Nightwatcher because of her whole building stuff thing, from which both good and bad stems. At least those are my thoughts. Also, I'm still in full favor of Rlain getting that Metaphysical Bread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdentRuby Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) Why is Rlain an option? Did I miss something about/related to him? Edited November 2, 2019 by Tristan_Hollow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a theory floating around as a way to help unify the two races, especially since now we full-on know that Nahel bonds with singers are possible and we Rlain deserves something going right in his life.

(We'll probably get more in SA4. There's a reason we haven't heard from Rlain in a little bit, and Sandman hints that it's important. We'll see him again.)

I'm gonna put the rest of this in a spoiler box for the people who don't want to see it. Spoiler He disappeared about halfway through Oathbringer after going back to the warcamps (and probably into the Shattered Plains) and there was a group of listeners in WoR that fled the Stormform transformation also into the Shattered Plains. I'm reasonably confident he went after them, per a few past theories here on the Shard and the WOBs about Rlain's disappearance being important. I think SA4 is gonna give us more Rlain POVs and see him leading those listeners like Kaladin did the emancipated ones after Hearthstone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote I agree Spoiler After Rlain had his heart to heart with Kaladin, he might have suggested Rlain to go look for any survivors and that they would be welcomed in urithiru.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
