What the h*** was that? [WaT prologue]

[Xabben]

After reading the first four books in just 4 months, I have finally reached Wind and Truth. I was really excited to begin this journey but, after reading the prologue of WaT, something felt really wrong. What the h*** was that? That was definitely NOT the Stormfather, right? His behavior was totally off. Is this something that was intended? Or a legitimate error? I have found many post about this topic, but all of them are from the first previews, and therefore full of speculations...

There was a lot of speculation.

I just want to say all of my speculation was correct.

It is the Stormfather. He was serious when he said he would do it differently.

The thing is... Why did the Stormfather lie to Gavilar? And why did he mentioned in Oathbringer that "no herald had died for centuries" if that was not true?

Oh yes, the Stormfaker theory. It feels nostalgic now. Keep reading, you'll find out eventually.

It makes more sense when you read it
