Forts Board Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 YKYASF When you start reading Machievelli and you scream, "No! Journey before destination, you fool!" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezzik Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 @Forts Board, here spoilered for length. Spoiler AndrewHB (paraphrased) Is Niccolò Machiavelli's political theory--the ends justify the means--incompatible with the Knights Radiant's First Oath? Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased) No. Although many of the Orders of Knights Radiant would find Machiavelli's theory, that the ends justify the means, incompatible with additional oaths and/or values of that Order, there are some Orders who could accept a Machiavellian. (Brandon said that the Skybreakers are where a Machiavellian could find a home.) Footnote: A follow up question was asked in the signing line. Arcanum Unbounded Hoboken signing (Dec. 3, 2016) Spoiler AndrewHB I wondered if I could follow up to that Machiavelli question. Would Elsecallers be a-- one of those other, uh-- one of those... Brandon Sanderson So, yeah. Elsecallers are fairly compatible. Like, Elsecallers feel like the journey is... the journey is the entire species, right? And that the journey is the destination. *inaudible* Footnote: Referenced question was asked in the General Q&A. Arcanum Unbounded Hoboken signing (Dec. 3, 2016) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edema Rue Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) YKYASF when you’re walking down a hallway wearing a bridge four shirt and a guy wearing a Szeth hoodie nods at you and you nod back and keep walking feeling infinitely cooler. EDIT: the guy happens to be in one of my theatre classes. So I got to hear him give a monologue as King Hamlet (the ghost). He was still wearing the hoodie. My brain decided Gavilar.

Ookla Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 Probably has been done before in some way, but: YKYASFW you join the 17th Shard for the sole purpose of being an Ookla. For one thing, why on earth would you join the Shard if you weren't a Sanderfan? There's WAY too many geeks 'round here for most normal people! For another, you have to understand what Ookla Season is to really appreciate being an Ookla, which requires that you spend a lot of time on the 17th Shard. Also, YKYASFW one of the top criteria for a future spouse is that they must at least have read the Cosmere and tolerate it, because it would be misery to make a whole lot of Cosmere jokes to someone who can't understand them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ookla Posted December 27, 2023 Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 YKYASFW you check to see how many pages are left in your book and are sad because there's only 300 more, so the book isn't going to last much longer. Also, YKYASFW you're more excited for Christmas next year than you were for it this year because SA 5 comes out next year and not this year. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
