Master Elodin Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 In the Letter, Frost has been shown to be in communication with the 17th Shard. However, he is on Yolen and cannot leave. Does this mean that the 17th shard have found Yolen, or is there some sort of intergalactic messaging system that they have access to. In addition, the same could be said for the letter itself. 1
Rasarr she/her Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 In the Letter, Frost has been shown to be in communication with the 17th Shard. However, he is on Yolen and cannot leave. Does this mean that the 17th shard have found Yolen, or is there some sort of intergalactic messaging system that they have access to. In addition, the same could be said for the letter itself. Now I can't get out of my head an image of Hoid sitting in some quiet corner, pulling out a fancy magitek laptop and logging into Spacebook for a chat with Frost... BTW, why are we so certain Frost is stuck on Yolen? I've seen this pop up a few times before, but I can't find the reason behind it anywhere. A WoB? An unpublished work? Something else?
Pagerunner he/him Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 I don't think it's that he can't leave, but that he hasn't. He is not a worldhopper, which means he has not left his homeworld; since the only place we know dragons come from is Yolen, that means he must still be on Yolen. I was wondering about the original question, myself. It's possible between Secret History and Stormlight Archive, Khriss managed to find Yolen, and thus got connected with Frost and the Seventeenth Shard. (Or maybe she was already Seventeenth Shard, and Frost wasn't involved up til that point.)
