Ilidsor Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 So I just had this sudden theory about the Parshendi. My theory is that the Parshendi are there to train the humans. Think about it: They always fight with about the same amount of people, even though they can use larger armies if they need to. They killed Galivar, took credit, but Kaladin calls them very honorable. So I believe that kike the humans trained the Parshmen to serve, they trained the Parshendi to train them before Odium comes again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meandering Monotreme Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 That doesn't quite work. Why would "being honorable" mean "training Alethi for the Final Desolation"? And why only the Alethi? There are many other places that would benefit from training as well. Besides, who would think of that? "Oh, we need to get Alethkar to the point where it can defend itself, so we will make them our sworn enemies and fight them, possibly decimating our or their armies. That makes perfect sense!" And besides, this is completely ignoring Jasnah's warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
