Dankworth he/him Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 This was Infinity Blade, I take it? No, it's Wheel of Time. Androl was an Asha'man who, while very weak in the One Power, played a major role in the last books. Anything more than that would be pretty spoilery. 1
Topomouse he/him Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Indeed he is from Wheel of Time. I was a bit unsure it was "legal" to use him since Brandon is not the author of WoT, since he is the one character that was 100% his creation I figured it was all good. 1
Xaladin he/him Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) Hey! Keep the spoilers down, bro! I'm only in the second book of the Wheel of Time. (This is in response to a post on the other page) Edited May 31, 2015 by Xaladin
Kasimir he/him Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am the master of the hearth-fire, the wielder of weapons, An uncrowned king, I am; lord over these waters, my domain. I have survived blows that would slay lesser men; Name me Silvertongue and Swiftmind: with these, I have carved a place for myself. I am a stranger in a strange land; instead of the music of gulls I am lulled by the soft music of coins. Wealth has been and is mine. Above all, I have found my treasure: that which is precious beyond all things. 3
Topomouse he/him Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Got it in one, nice! How about this: In order to reach wisdom I took the path of Denial, my task was to teach the wisdom to the people and I relished in it. But when I got to teach at the top I found that our student had seduced my fellow teachers and they hadn't resisted her temptations. They tried to tempt me with the pleasure of evil, but I resisted. They tried to to stop me with the satisfaction of the lesser good, but I went forward. In night painted the truth so that no one could close their eyes to it, in the morning I paid the ultimate price for it, in the evening the voice of the people cried for revange. 2
DreamEternal Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) I hold four things in my hands, bloodstained. The first is the light, that fills all with fear, For strenght and hate bring death, if untamed. The second is blacker than the night, It marks the bond and pact, out of sight. The third is the clean blade, the tool of the trade, By wich my hands, bloodstained, their mark they made The fourth is the lie, the sorrow, the price, The flowing emptyness that follows the dark. For all is lost, yet four things remain, the light, the pact, the blade, the wine. In my bloodstained hands, in mourning, in vice. Edited May 31, 2015 by CognitivePulsePattern 3
Sirce Luckwielder he/him Posted June 1, 2015 Author Posted June 1, 2015 Is it Szeth? The four things could be Stormlight, the balck sphere from Gavilar, his sword of spoileriness, and the fourth his Oathstone.
Curiosity he/him Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I hold four things in my hands, bloodstained. The first is the light, that fills all with fear, For strenght and hate bring death, if untamed. The second is blacker than the night, It marks the bond and pact, out of sight. The third is the clean blade, the tool of the trade, By wich my hands, bloodstained, their mark they made The fourth is the lie, the sorrow, the price, The flowing emptyness that follows the dark. For all is lost, yet four things remain, the light, the pact, the blade, the wine. In my bloodstained hands, in mourning, in vice. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful and heartwrenching. 3
DreamEternal Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) It is not Szeth. Also, I am glad you liked, it was in the back of my head for quite a long time. Also, what is the connection between the oathstone and wine for drowning one's sorrows? Edited June 1, 2015 by CognitivePulsePattern 1
Sirce Luckwielder he/him Posted June 1, 2015 Author Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) The fourth is the lie, the sorrow, the price. Words of Radiance spoiler: his Oathstone is a lie. He didn't actually need it since he was given it for telling the truth about the Radiance. It brings him sorrow beyond belief. It is his price for saying that the Radiants were returning. Edited June 1, 2015 by Sirce Luckwielder
DreamEternal Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Yes, I know, but I called one of the four items wine in the second last line. Not Szeth, althought I added that line just so people wouldn't think it was Szeth, since the rest fits so well
Sirce Luckwielder he/him Posted June 1, 2015 Author Posted June 1, 2015 It seemed to fit so well that I didn't know if the wine was metaphorical or literal.
DreamEternal Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 No. I made it to be very difficult, so I may drop a hint if it takes too long for someone to get it right.
DreamEternal Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 No. Here is the first hint: The first two things are more mundane than they seem.
Young Bard he/him Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Vasher? 1. His Breath (not sure I would classify this as mundane, but...) 2. No idea. 3. Nightblood 4. Ichor-Alcohol (had to look this one up on the Coppermind for a little while) 1
DreamEternal Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) Not Vasher, and not Shallan. Another hint: It is not the light that brings fear, but the truth it reveals. And the pact was only half fufilled(sp?). Edited June 5, 2015 by CognitivePulsePattern 1
Young Bard he/him Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 Got I've got that poem from The Broken Eye (Black Prism Series) in my mind now "Every light casts a shadow, Every shadow hides a secret, Every secret hides a truth, Every truth shines a light." As for guesses... Kalak/ any other herald? If they are phases of time, each object representative of a period in the Desolation cycle... 1. His relief at coming out of Braize, and the people's horror that he's here again (meaning another Desolation is approaching). 2. The Oathpact. 3. The Desolation. 4. The Torture on Braize between Desolations. 2
