Valigus Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Kaladin seems to be relegated to the B plot rn, I imagine we will won’t see a lot of kaladin until the end of the book from here, but when the enemy attacks urithiru I bet they take over the tower mostly and kaladin has to drive them back maybe leshwi helps him by stabbing ing raboniel in the back and then the sibling wakes back up maybe navani bonds it while trapped in the core during the whole ordeal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fused gems have voidlight in them and it's thier sudden removal that cause the pressure differential. And the metal conducts stormlight and leeches it from a Radiant in contact. In normal practice. The gem stones are simply empty before the Highstorm Edited November 3, 2020 by PrinceGenocide A little polishing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the first human mechanisms. It might also explain why you need a solid contact the whole time.. 5 minutes ago, Pagerunner said: Dead-end hallways, I don't have a good guess at; maybe there's a Lightweaving control station or map or something down there? You don't need a room, because everything is virtual? I was thinking they might be to balance airflow or confuse invaders. They might also be prison doors of the type you speculated that just happen to be closed. 7 minutes ago, PrinceGenocide said: I think navani would be able to identify aluminium or test it I would say the same of nicrosil though so chromium becomes the obvious answer.

Friendshipspren Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Just now, Karger said: I would say the same of nicrosil though so chromium becomes the obvious answer. Ah yes. It could be Chromium . Although I thought maybe it was silver cause of the effect it has on shades. Probably not tho. Chromium makes more sense 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agrabes Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 I think the epigraph is clearly referencing the natural process of electricity. The way electricity works is based on what is called "Potential Difference" aka - Voltage. Create a potential difference and you will get voltage and current, causing power to flow. And think about the name too - Stormlight - obvious ties to Lightning where we first learned about electricity in real life. I think the epigraph is foreshadowing that Stormlight can be used a little bit like real world electricity. I think we're on the path to seeing things like Stormlight wiring, etc to make all these fabrials in Urithiru work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reading this as Kaladin's last chapter/moment of decision before jumping into a new arc, although the time gap is interesting. Ok, I missed that I guess; it was as you said, too, the strange time gap at the beginning which made me think "new book" automatically :-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gears Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Quote Kaladin’s mother leaned in to inspect the green vein. “Iron,” she said. “Makes the ston turn that shade.” Typo. I think Lirin's attitude towards Kaladin's departure from the army is a bit insensitive. He just lost everything, and all you can think of is how you were right all along? Honestly, Lirin, I love you, but you have a son with depression and severe self-doubt. Be a bit more aware of the moment. Don't say, "You're finally going to be the person we want you to be and stop doing things that don't matter!" 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup Jasnah already stated she doesn't fully trust them yet. It means they only have one big order really suited for combat Alliance situation is not as fine as the Alethkar incursion made me think when I saw so many Windrunners and Edgdancers fighting None of those Radiants progressed over the third ideal either except Jasnah ? I actually think 90% of them are stuck in the second ideal, unable to conjuring shardblades and so Edited November 3, 2020 by IcaroRibeiro 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innovation Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Navani’s lectures are fascinating as always. The pressure differential is fascinating. As for the metal in the spears, I’d say it is chromium. Nicrosil and aluminum would be probably recognizable by Navani. As for Kaladin, I don’t think he will be a surgeon for the rest of the book- he just needs to get back on his feet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shallan and Adolin in Shadesmar are the B plot, and Dalinar and Jasnah in Emul will probably be the C plot. After the last chapter I think Kaladin/Navani/Venli/Renarin/(Rlain or Moash) is a pretty solid prediction for the major A plot POVs. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Bliev Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 I love love love the parallelism here between Kal and his dad. I've been saying how similar they are--and here we see just how alike they both are. Feeling needed and useful is the drug for both of them. Did you see how Lirin perked up when he realized he still had a purpose?? It's like Kal looking in a mirror, yet neither of them can see themselves in the other. Though Kal almost did. And that's a point of growth. I think this will be such an important journey for both of them, and in a way, it mirrors Adolin and Dalinar--who are you beyond being your father's son? What do you want? How can you acknowledge your parent's influence while not letting them forge your own path. So exciting to see. Overall, though, poor Hesina--so many brooding men in her life. She needs Syl more than anyone! :-) 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed with this one Although I can't see Renarin as a POV character yet, maybe a minor POV 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal Khol Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) Weve seen before that Syl has transformed to look like someone Kaladin had a Connection to(Shallan in WoR After washing ashore) then she just did this one Spoiler Syl landed on his shoulder and took the form of a young woman in a full havah, with her hair pinned up in the Alethi fashion I wonder if she’ll be relevant later on?
