don_karma_II Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I don't know if this has been discussed but did adonalsium splinter into 16 shards of equal investiture? or with varying levels of investiture more like a asymmetrical splinter?

Isomere Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 As far as I am aware we don't know the nature of Adonalsium's shattering. My personal thoughts are equal amounts of investiture in each shard, but there is no solid evidence for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Ninja Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 It was in the forum Q&A: Sweetness: 2. Just after the Shattering (but before they started created humans or something), did all Shards have roughly the same amount of raw power?BS: Yes. Good question. On a related note, it looks like back in May there was a discussion here about whether all the Shards were equal across the 3 Realms, or if some were more powerful in one or the other, but it doesn't look like they made any solid conclusions.

don_karma_II Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 So the splintering was clean and did not have any "shard wastage"? If they did have "shard wastes" or tiny splinters no matter how small they may be compared to the 16 shards, then they will still have enough investiture to influence a single person or making or becoming an artefact? Something like moon sceptre? roughly same amount of power doesn't mean clean splinters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vortaan Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 There is something referred to as "The God Beyond" that might fit the category of extra Investiture left over. On a similar note, Lightweaving was a pre-Shattering magic so whatever powers it now is likely the raw Investiture, sans any Shardic influence. Or perhaps it's powered by whatever Shard is closest... hrm. Not sure about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don_karma_II Posted September 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Is there any known person apart from hoid who uses light weaving? Might the flute hoid gave to Kaladin have anything to do with light weaving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyabi Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I do not believe that the flute is related to Lightweaving, but Lightweaving is said to be an ability that certain Orders of the Knights Radiant can use. Also, other people from Hoid's homeworld, Yolen, can likely use Lightweaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
