Ire confusion

[kenthomas261]

There is a WoB from 2018 from the skyward signing that says that Puula is Ire? Can someone more familiar with WoBs tell me if this was said in confusion or something? The audio sounds like it was just being confirmed, but it makes little sense to me and i haven't really seen implications of it talked about before.  And it's not on the copper mind. What's going on with that?

The lighthouse guy was Ire? In Oathbringer?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes.

And he was the same Elantrian that they put in the Shardpool at the end of--

Brandon Sanderson

Yes, he is the same person.

And was he Ire before--

Brandon Sanderson

He was not before then.

Like, if not then I'm going to start making some wild theories about it and posting them around

I'd assume that he is Ire.

You say "Puula" (not sure where you got that name) but the WoB you reference is about Riino, who was in Elantris as the "We were so beautiful once" Hoed; who somehow survived going through the Perpendicularity when placed there by Raoden, Karata and Galladon (Elantris Ch 25). He is next seen in Oathbringer as the Lighthouse Keeper and "Rii Oracle" in Shadesmar (OB Ch 97).
