Haelbarde he/him Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Not sure if this has cropped up, but what are people's opinions regarding the Pareshendi having possession of the honorblades? Two quotes: The Place of meeting was in the shadow of a large rock formation, a spire rising into the sky. ~ Kalak's viewpoint - Prelude to a Way of Kings and from Eshonai's reading: That peaked rock formation ahead? That had probably once been a spire. ~ Eshonai's viewing - Way of Radiance Reading Two sentences is not much, but the same feature is described. And the environment appears to be similar. The prelude's description sounds like it not necessarily much different at that point in time to the environment now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoser he/him Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Good catch on the physical resemblance! Nice work on the quotes. Not sure if this has cropped up, but what are people's opinions regarding the Pareshendi having possession of the honorblades? ... The prelude's description sounds like it not necessarily much different at that point in time to the environment now. Given the following quote from the Eshonai interlude, it seems hard to reconcile. Parshendi, ... She felt inexperienced to be their general, but with the casualties their forces had taken during the years fighting on the Shattered Plains they were lucky to have any officers left, let alone Shardbearers. It doesn't seem like they have 9 shardblades left, unless they refuse to use the Honorblades. The Alethi have captured blades from them, and Dalinar didn't seem to think they were different than regular shardblades. Of course, if you are right about the location, they could be on the verge of finding them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aether he/him Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Maybe the Blades have been picked up by some of the Shattered Plain's native inhabitants and are now bound to Chasmfiends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
askthepaperclip he/him Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Maybe the Blades have been picked up by some of the Shattered Plain's native inhabitants and are now bound to Chasmfiends? Hahaha "Revenge of the Chasmfiends"?? I can see it now..."Ok, let's see how YOU like it having your limbs killed one by one with a shardblade!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daishi5 Posted December 19, 2013 Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 When darkness says that "that creature has my lords own blade," maybe he is talking about Eshonai? It would make more sense with the word "creature," but to be honest that quote is really open to many different interpretations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chlehrma Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 When I read Eshonai's interlude, it seemed she was describing the building that was under 4500 years of cream buildup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
