Irish Truthwatcher Posted January 8, 2025 Posted January 8, 2025 So Retribution made some comments about the face of Roshar being changed as a result of his ascension, from what I remember the Purelake is overflowing and the planet is wracked by earthquakes. I was wondering if anyone else had any thoughts on how the map of Roshar might change, we know Azir, the shattered plains, Urithiru and presumably Thaylenah if Fen made a good deal will remain unchanged, but what of areas of Roshar we've only heard mention of and never travelled to? The places that jump out at me personally are the Selay nations, Babatharnam, Marabethia, and Yulay. The latter two may potentially be completely wiped off the map if the changes surrounding the Purelake are permanent. Geography dictates that Shinovar will probably be the same, but what of the coastal nations to the west, like Tukar, Steen etc. Will their deals with Odium protect them? Iri too without the Iriali lacks any major players so could be decimated (though Lifts flashbacks taking place for some part at least in Rall Elorium should protect that city at least) I would say Aimia is also a goner now that it's served its narrative purpose vis a vis the Dawnshard and Chiri-Chiri's transformation. I also expect the Reshi islands to begin wandering slightly further afield throughout the oceans of Roshar, sort of becoming rebel outposts on the sea. Maybe they could function as pirates? Sinking Thaylen ships as revenge for betraying the coalition? 1
