Let me go back and read more closely! ...Ah, I see. Her thought to herself about finding a way back to the Physical Realm without an Oathgate, that she might never see Adolin again while putting her hand on her stomach, and that "she could survive. She had to. Not just for herself." What a yutz I am that I read right past that, LOL One of the other things adding credence to the theory, which I believe 100%, is that one of the lines before that one robardin quoted is about her staying there for several months. ...3RD GEN. HERALDIC SURGEBINDER INCOMING! Edited December 25, 2024 by Crustin
RedBlue Posted December 25, 2024 Posted December 25, 2024 Guesses about the younger generation: Lift will get over her body image issues, but will still be working through mom-related angst and her relationship with competency Gavinor will learn how to be a functional adult in the Physical Realm but is otherwise a mess of a human being Oroden will be the spitting image of Tien and other people will have Feelings about that. These people have a tendency to make that Oroden’s problem. Shallan’s kid will have gone on a brief jaunt outside the time dilation bubble, and will have aged a few years (5 or so) more than his/her peers 5
Crustin Posted December 25, 2024 Posted December 25, 2024 Lift learns Awakening from Zahel. Maybe he can even fashion a hemalurgic spike from the full feruchemist and take her powers! The voice in Jasnah's head was an Unmade with precognition ability and was setting her up for Odium's schemes. She'll have to unravel that and her childhood trauma. Rock was out there in Shadesmar with the clan of Horneaters on that side, battling over Cultivation's Perpendicularity as part of a resistance until it disappeared. Now he'll run into his cousin (Shallan) since they're stuck there too. Shallan's baby will be a 3rd generation with Heraldic blood and until the baby/babies is/are old enough to travel, she'll be making Seon Zoom calls to figure out how to get back to Adolin or Urithiru. She'll also remember she forgot to interrogate Thaidakar about how her FATHER was involved with the Ghostbloods and what their plans were. I think this will probably draw her towards making Felt take her to Scadrial. Szeth will find the Skybreaker dissenters and build up a Skybreaker militia. He'll also have to search out a new source of investiture in order to wield Nightblood and utilize surgebinding from his new High spren. During therapy, Kaladin will share his past with the group. When Nale brings up he's sorry his strike against Amaram via Helaran Davar got Kal's friends killed, Kal and Channa will both learn he killed her eldest son. Dova will be conflicted over her deal with Odium since he is now Retribution and she made that deal not knowing an Oathpact 2.0 was possible AND that she'd get free therapy with it. Her feelings will tear her apart. Will she be better off with this new leader, Stormblessed? Or this new Shard, Retribution? Syl will become the StormMother and start accepting oaths. Part of the fragments that broke off of the Stormfather pre-vaporization went to her, which is why she has white in her hair now and storms in her eyes. Quote “He’s dead,” she whispered. “My father is … dead. And I’m not sure if I ever really knew him …” She glanced at him, and as she did, he saw a storm in her eyes. Not a metaphoric one, but actual lightning and swirling clouds, filling them. In a moment, she wore something very different. A regal gown, fit for … for a queen. (That line reminded me of a previous one in WoR...) Quote “Wow,” Syl’s voice said. “You’re supposed to harness the storms, Kaladin. Not carry them about behind your eyes.” Rysn is going to try to use the Wandersail and her crew to travel Shadesmar using some method the sleepless have taught her. Yanagawn will become like Genghis Khan once the peace between them and their neighbors breaks due to civil unrest at being surrounded and doing nothing. Fortunately more and more Unoathed will flock to them as more Deadeyes wake up due to the recent world-altering changes. 3
TheOtherDave Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 Do we have a source for people being unable to walk from Azir to Urithiru? There’s nothing in the contract that prohibits people from traveling through (or trading with) the “other god’s” territory. For that matter, isn’t it all Retribution’s territory now anyway? Aside from Urithiru (both due to Navani/The Sibling as well as its geographic isolation), why do we think people won’t be able to go wherever they want?

DSCrankshaw Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 Nohadon said he needed help to get to Urithiru when he walked there. The only way we know to get there is to travel through the caves beneath, and it's not clear you can get there without Radiant help. And that's without Urithiru being surrounded by its current shield.

I hate hate hate "Syladin", even after this book - which I suppose tempered my hatred down from a loathing. It's still just... it feels wrong to me. I do think a love triangle between Lift, Zahel, and Azure would be funny. Though that is almost as wrong... Plead all you want it is happening weather you like or not though at least you won’t have to worry about it until the back half
bmcclure7 Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 (edited) Slyadin becomes a thing adult lift will fall in love someone and will be a mother sometime in the back hafe. lift will be used as a scout and spy gavin will became a master dualist lift will help him get over his trama. Jasnah will regret forcing a democracy (she won’t but she would if this was realistic) Kaliden will perfect his cooking skills. A religion we started that believes that Kal will return from death to save them all. Gave and cord will be in a relationship Szeth we become a father On 12/17/2024 at 10:39 PM, Cocoa said: Nobody is going to cotton onto the fact that Kaladin became a Herald during the timeskip, so it'll blindside everyone when he returns. Szeth has lots of sheep. Shallan and Adolin's kid (henceforth called "Yugi Mutou" until we get an actual name) is going to speak like a Cryptic. The math puns, to be clear, not the clicking. Probably. Maybe. Kal and Chana are going to eventually have a very awkward off-screen conversation about her family history as part of his role as divine therapist. Lift will address some of her never-grow-up issues under Zahel's tutelage, but not all of them. Lift and Gift (somehow I'm only just now noticing the rhyme) will court/date at some point during the timeskip. No bet on whether they're still together by book 6. Lift's aviar somehow doesn't die of old age during is still alive after the timeskip. Edit: On it being pointed out, yeah, parrots can live for a while. Lopen becomes the leader of the Windrunners, with a lot of the other old guard being either dead or absent from Urithiru. He's 4th ideal when we see him again but we keep just missing the story of how he swore that oath or the story keeps changing. There's a bunch of Reshi and Herdazians out there living nomadic lifestyles on the backs of greatshells. Thaylenah becomes the unofficial seat of Retribution's new religion, in part due to the people there already following both Vorinism and the Passions. If the war does start again, it would be cool to see Thaylen ships versus the great shells Edited December 29, 2024 by bmcclure7
DSCrankshaw Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 Adolin will become addicted to firemoss (hopefully not, but that was a definite risk that may yet materialize) 1
Acolyte of Radiance Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 Adin becomes a squire and is oradens substitute brother/friend/mentor and this will be a ploy point in sa6 2

Hoping and praying that this is on-screen instead, or at least in a fun little short story. We would be robbed otherwise.
