+Czernobog Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Quote “No, I’m not worried about that one. The old fool sows chaos, but does not reach for the power offered by opportunity. He hides in his insignificant city, listening to its songs, thinking he plays in world events. He has no idea. His is not the position of the hunter."

WhiteLeeopard Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Mraize came off to me in this book like a very little pawn, who believes himself to be important but has little true power. And what we've seen in the past reinforces this. What are the GB's greatest actions when it comes to Mraize? Killing a bunch of random porters, grabbing Shallan's brothers from the middle of nowhere. Oh! And capturing a 13 year old girl without Stormlight! Yay, powerful Mraize, totally. Iyatil seemed a bit more interesting, she could be a good person (don't know as haven't seen her enough). But Mraize always seemed a black hole with big aspirations and little power. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is what usually happens to men like him eventually. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jescape Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Well he did lure out Ash in Oathbringer but all in all I've been getting steadily less impressed with him as the series has progressed. I wonder about all his trophies, are they genuinely as impressive as they seem or is the truth of how he acquired them rather lackluster? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
