Bort he/him Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 Pretty early on in Alloy of Law, Wax has some thought about Wayne claiming to have once 'traded' for a horse which belched in perfect musical notes. Of course, Wayne also claimed to have once stolen a horse that belched in perfect musical notes, so one learned to take what he said with a pinch of copper. Does this mean he stole a horse who had attained the 5th heightening? Could it be Ryshadium? There is something very different about those horses. Are they Returned? 7
Left he/him Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 Ummmm. I sincerely doubt it. I think Wayne was probably lying, as it says in the quote. At best, it could have been a Kandra goofing off. Ryshadium are not returned as that is a thing of Endowment who isn't on Roshar. 1
Kaymyth she/her Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 At best, it could have been a Kandra goofing off. Given what the annotations say about Wayne's character creation origins, I think this is actually a surprisingly likely scenario. 8

At best, it could have been a Kandra goofing off. Ryshadium are not returned as that is a thing of Endowment who isn't on Roshar. I also considered that it could be a kandra practical joke, but I think it is interesting when in Warbreaker we have Breaths which, when accumulated enough, give perfect pitch, and here we have a horse which, supposedly, belches in perfect pitch. I'll admit, it may well be a story made up by Wayne, but is it not also possible that the horse is a Worldhopper? Perhaps it is Hoid's horse? He is in Alloy of Law, so maybe he had a horse he picked up and invested some Breath into. 1

He is in Alloy of Law, so maybe he had a horse he picked up and invested some Breath into. I know that one: it must be bela! (this will be understandable only by those who have read the wheel of time) 15

Bort he/him Posted February 15, 2015 Author Posted February 15, 2015 There we go. The King of Nowhere has solved it. The Ryshadium are ALL Bela, just cloned. 1
ParadoxicalZen he/him Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) Well given what Hoid says about Ryshadium at the end of WoR, it could be possible (He says something about gifted they are with music). It's a question i want to ask Brandon Edited September 22, 2015 by ParadoxSpren
Yata he/him Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) I know that one: it must be bela! (this will be understandable only by those who have read the wheel of time) Bela is Adonalsium of course, and his Splinters are the Ryshadiums Edited September 23, 2015 by Yata 1
The Sovereign Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) Bela is Adonalsium of course, and his Splinters are the Ryshadiums I suspect the Herd could get behind this idea... Edited November 2, 2015 by Iron Eyes
KnightGradient Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Bela is Adonalsium of course, and his Splinters are the Ryshadiums Shhhhhhhh. Kobold will hear you.
The Honor Spren she/her Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 I suspect the Heard could get behind this idea... ...I f only to better stab it in the back, of course. 1
Bort he/him Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 Disappointing update from Brandon. Wayne did NOT steal a Returned, or otherwise invested, horse
Landis963 he/him Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Disappointing update from Brandon. Wayne did NOT steal a Returned, or otherwise invested, horse Which of course means that Ryshadiums (Anyone know the plural of that?) are Invested. Good to know.
ParadoxicalZen he/him Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Disappointing update from Brandon. Wayne did NOT steal a Returned, or otherwise invested, horse I thought the answer you got was vague Edited October 23, 2015 by ParadoxSpren
Bort he/him Posted October 27, 2015 Author Posted October 27, 2015 The actual answer was that there may have possibly, potentially, maybe been something going on, but it is much more likely that Wayne was pulling your leg. I spoke to him further when I was getting books signed.
Cadmium he/him Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) Which of course means that Ryshadiums (Anyone know the plural of that?) are Invested. Good to know.The Latin plural would be Ryshadia. (Stadium -> Stadia, as a neutral second declension noun) No idea if Brandon would follow Latin conjugation for Alethi terms.
