(WaT Spoilers) So... What now?

[Conure1243 He/Him]

I suppose this came a bit late, seeing as we've gotten Isles of the Emberdark (Which I'm not sure we can actually bring up in this thread, but still), but I'm curious about what people's thoughts are on Cosmere-wide theories and predictions on what happens following Wind and Truth.

I've been stuck on the idea of a unique form of not-warfare between the shards, each with very similar goals, but very different ways that they want to accomplish said goals. (I'd guess eliminating the threat of Retribution). The idea of Shards in a large conflict while also trying to minimize the amount of actual interaction between them is one that I am intrigued by, but I'm unsure if all of the shards would be going to war. We only know that they have targeted Retribution for being so powerful.

I dunno, but I think this is a pretty apparent theory, nothing too special, but because I want speculation, Ima bring it up. Also, how are the other planets affected? Again, assuming there is a giant kinda not-war between shards, I'm going to guess that a lot of planets are siding with shards, creating lots of conflicts between worlds in the Cosmere.

Anyway, curious about what people think. That's my basic lil' prediction, but I'm curious about anything you may be guessing about post WaT Cosmere, including something like how food is affected. (I really doubt that's something anybody's figured out, I kinda doubt that it'll ever be noted, but just an example of how obscure I want to go.)

So yeah... What are your thoughts?

[Nitpicking]

We know that the Mistborn series after the Ghostbloods one (due out starting 2027) is the space war, between the post-Voidlight Roshar and the post-Ghostbloods Scadrial, or rather factions they lead.
