Through The Living Grub He/Him Posted April 19, 2024 Posted April 19, 2024 Hello all! I'm back! I've just been rereading my copy of SA and just now I read where Adolin summoned Maya a few heartbeats early. Then in RoW she seemed to be a little bit more alive, and now this thought came to me: If Adolin were to revive Maya enough could he A. Summon her instantly and maybe B. Become an Edgedancer For context, Maya is a Cultivationspren, like Wyndle who is Lift's spren. The surge of Abrasion would fit him well, as he uses Windstance, a more flowing form. I don't know if Adolin has acted in a way that fits these ideals, but there could be something?

Become an Edgedancer Please see these many Adolin Maya theory threads: Why Maya is healing Deadeye Spren Maya and Adolin's Bond Edgedancer Stoneward WoB: Spoiler Kaladin al'Thor I noticed my last time reading Words of Radiance that there were several times-- vines that were on Adolin's shardblade as he summoned it. So I was wondering if maybe the Radiant who used it had was an Edgedancer? Brandon Sanderson You are right. Kaladin al'Thor You mentioned before that it would be possible to revive a dead shard[blade], but it would be very difficult-- Brandon Sanderson Very difficult. Kaladin al'Thor Like I think what you said is that it would have to be the same person that broke the bond? Brandon Sanderson That would be the-- Yeah. Kaladin al'Thor So if it was an Edgedancer's blade if he made those same oaths could potentially he… Brandon Sanderson That would most likely not be enough. Something else would have to happen. Good guess though. Firefight release party (Jan. 5, 2015) Many have speculated that whatever might be happening there, it could be some new kind of reverse bond - Where in a Normal Nahel Bond, the spren is filling cracks in teh Radiant's Soul - but in RoW Adolin seems to be filling cracks in Maya's soul. . . 1
