Umm....

Jasnah is more than that...

But she's not flashback character until book 10, which is releasing like 2045 or something.

Long wait.

Also beware: no spoilers allowed in this section.

Edit: Never mind someone moved it to Stormlight Archive section. Now you must beware of spoilers up to WaT.

[Nitpicking]

Jasnah has never been (or pretended to be) emotionless, except perhaps with Shallan, briefly and without success.

[The-Rizzler]

Oh, I remember Jasnah!  She was in Words of Radiance, right?  I wonder if Sanderson will ever write about her character ever again in any of the other books.

Yes.  I remember there was a Jasnah character who became Queen and tricked a high prince into a duel, but that's really all there was about that character.  Apparently she's sworn her 4th ideal as well but pretty sure that happens off book and we never really learn about her powers.  Oh well, at least we got to hear all about the fascinating Venli.

She'll be really important in the back half of Stormlight though.

Book 10 will be her flashbacks.

lol no thanks.  You’d have to be a fool to keep reading this train wreck of a series.  Sanderson had his chance to keep the story engaging with characters like Jasnah and he squandered it.

Train wreck of a series?

*sigh*

The story is engaging. The books are good.

I'm sorry you hated Rythm of War; that's your opinion. Many people like it; you seem to be an outlier. If you hate Sanderson because of one thing, that's fine.

If you hate Sanderson, why'd you join the Shard? So that you could rant to us about your opinion? Your complaints are falling on deaf ears.

As to you, my strongly opinioned friend, should probably avoid calling someone a fool.
Two main reasons; First, You have, in all likeliness, insulted a sizable portion of the Shard. To name someone a Fool, is to be the Fool, for you consider yourself clever enough to impose a label which you clearly do not truly understand.
Second, what is your point really? I've basically all of your posts consists of hating on stormlight and sanderson, only because you dislike Rythm of War. You can have your opinions, but if you consider sanderson to be such a bad writer, and stormlight to be such a bad series, I'd suggest going elsewhere.
Man, you aren't conttributing anything other than a massively biased critique of sanderson; and I call it biased, because it is apparent you are judging from a single book in the series you disliked.
You haven't even spoken about any of his other series, such as mistborn.
I simply don't understand what is the point of you jumpng in here and doing what you are doing.
Insulting a member(s, due to implication), and contirbuting nothing but sanderson-hate is, well, useless here.
Again, you are entitled to your opinion. But have you considered letting others be entitled to theirs, instead to calling us fools for enjoying a series?

PS to shard mods; I'm probably escalting the situation, so I apologise beforehand.
