Nitpicking Posted April 24, 2025 Posted April 24, 2025 I picked that ambiguous title to avoid spoilering people outside this forum. So, did everyone else realize immediately that Shallan killed Iyatil exactly the way Adolin killed Torol Sadeas? It's even a fight between combatants who have, but don't use, Shardblades (because they can't). Brandon was winking at us, as Shallan thinks about winning because of Adolin's lessons. It occurred to me: Iyatil's spren was a corrupted Inkspren. She couldn't do lightweaving. We know it was done with stormlight, because the anti-stormlight knife dispelled it. That means Mraize must have created the illusion, anchored it on her body, and it lasted for a very long time (or he kept renewing it). Timeless Spiritual Realm, I guess. Mraize got very good at lightweaving very fast, didn't he? Also, apparently corrupted Cryptics can grant normal lightweaving, which sort of means that their other surge must be different from normal Elsecalling.

Yeah I don’t like how people pick up abilities so much faster. Lightweavers have soulcasting btw not elsecalling. 1
