Aether he/him Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 I am surprised no one else have noticed this - or at least not started a topic on it - but Brandon slipped a major worldbuilding element into his latest "Wheel of Time Retrospective". Without further ado: A few more things got spun into this sequence. One was my desire to expand the usage of gateways in the series. For years, as an aspiring writer, I imagined how I would use gateways if writing a book that included them. I went so far as to include in the Stormlight Archive a magic system built around a similar teleportation mechanic. - From "The Wheel of Time Retrospective: A MEMORY OF LIGHT: The Black Tower", 1st of November 2013 (my bold lettering) Now, I assume that he is referring to either the perennially obscure Oathgates or giving us a hint as to how the Transportation Surge is going to work. It true he doesn't give any direct hints as to what exactly he's talking about, but I feel it's a safe bet that he's talking about one or the other. So, fellow theoreticians, thoughts?

Windrunner he/him Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 I'm afraid we've already got a topic on this over here. I'm gonna close this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
