Paranoid King he/him Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 The connection is fairly easy to make, once you think about it. Here are my reasons: #1: They are both paranoid. #2: They are both poor rulers. #3: Both books are in the cosmere. #4: You have yet to see both of them at the same time. Once you have the facts, the conclusion is easy to deduce: Elhokar, tired of people silently criticizing his rule, seeks out the Wit, who constantly slips away to some place where nobody can find him. He asks the Wit to take him to this place, and Hoid drops him off in the Elantris system. Confused, Elhokar does his best to fit in, renaming himself Iadon and becoming a merchant. When the Reod comes, he eagerly steps up to rule, convinced he'll do a better job this time than last time. 3
Xaladin he/him Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Only one problem. Elantris takes place before the "current events" (Elhokar's life) in The Stormlight Archive. 4
Paranoid King he/him Posted April 12, 2015 Author Posted April 12, 2015 Solution: Elhokar time travelled in book 8 12
connormce10 he/him Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Solution: Elhokar time travelled in book 8 You realize that was an April Fools' joke, right? 1
Paranoid King he/him Posted April 14, 2015 Author Posted April 14, 2015 What are you talking about? It was never officially declared an april fool's joke. Check the page if you don't believe me: (Stormlight book 8) 1
gjustice99 she/her Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 yeah that was an april fools joke, look at the date.... 1
Paranoid King he/him Posted April 15, 2015 Author Posted April 15, 2015 The first comment literally says: This news and the date are purely coincidental. 1
WeiryWriter he/him Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 It was an April Fool's day joke, trust me. Chaos' comment is not meant to be taken seriously. 1
Chaos he/him Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 I don't know what you're talking about. I think this theory is 100% likely. (Guys, you realize this theory is made in jest; he knows it is an April Fool's Joke. Er, I mean, what joke? 100% serious) 1
Elsecaller3414 she/her Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 I just tend to ignore things posted on April first, just to be sure.
Mckeedee123 he/him Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Well, yeah, but this was posted April 11th. Clarification: I wasn't being mean or anything. I'm just legitimately not sure whether this was written as a joke or not
natc Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) Well, yeah, but this was posted April 11th. Clarification: I wasn't being mean or anything. I'm just legitimately not sure whether this was written as a joke or not This thread seems to be serious.The fact that is used as a solution for a hole in the evidence for this theory was not.

Chaos he/him Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Guys I'm pretty sure he was kidding about it being evidence. You can relax now
