I wonder if some kind of sibling light exists and if it resists honor's investiture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounded like once a Truth is spoken it can't be forgotten, which led to the creation of Radiant. If you can't bury it then work around it.

Wasn't she keeping her father's accounts, that's why she could jump right in and do Sebarial's accounting. Did she contribute to her families financial ruin in some way? We still do not know what were the lies were or how she was "broken" before she bonded with Pattern, which is before the deaths of either of her parents. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always forget that Urithiru is basically in the middle of it... I keep thinking it's further south, near a coastline, though on a super tall mountain, to be sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Innovation Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 (edited) And stone is the ninth essence, and the Shin worship it. 9 is Odium’s number after all, but some of these could be coincidental.

Innovation Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 A lot of this could be a coincidence. Honor’s number is ten. There has to be a ninth Herald out of the ten, a ninth Surge, a ninth Radiant order... if Odium’s number was three, you would end up with the same result. I do agree though, not all of it is coincidental. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually really enjoying the serialised release of chapters because of all the discussion and theories we can get into.

Sul Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Dalanar has now endless supply of stormlight , does that mean he can draw nightblood without risking his life ? Edited August 12, 2020 by Sul 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GudThymes Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 33 minutes ago, Sul said: Dalanar has now endless supply of stormlight , does that mean he can draw nightblood without risking his life ? The likely answer is "yes". However, I would highly recommend against Dalinar doing this. We can reasonably assume that there is no upper limit to the amount of investiture that Nightblood can consume -- I dare say infinite. Fortunately he has been limited in his consumption due to his sheath as well as existing in the physical realm (sometimes in Cognitive, space travel and all that). However, the way that Dalinar gets an endless amount of Investiture is by creating a perpendicularity on command and linking the three realms directly with Honor's power. We have no idea what the consequences of that would be but I imagine that giving an entity with infinite ability to consume investiture access to an infinite amount of investiture will likely cause HORRIBLE things. Here are a couple WoB that I think directly relate here Quote Questioner If it's possible for Nightblood to actually interact with a Shard, what would happen? Brandon Sanderson A Shard would try to stay very far away from Nightblood. Nightblood could not plausibly destroy an entire Shard but the Vessel could be in danger. Starsight Release Party (Nov. 26, 2019) Quote Mason Wheeler What would happen if someone carried Nightblood unsheathed into a perpendicularity? Brandon Sanderson RAFO.
