A Windspren he/him Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 So, it seems that most people think Larkin are some sort of "Investiture Vacuums" that just consume any Investiture around them. However, I think that this isn't the case. When Rsyn gets her Larkin, there isn't really anything different about it (other than the silver eyes and wings), but when Nale uses the Larkin on Lift, it is described as sickly and weak looking. Therefore, I must conclude that Larkin just have the ability to use Stormlight, like a Surgebinder. The Larkin drew in the Stormlight to heal itself from injuries that Nale likely gave it. Naturally, to draw in Stormlight, the Larkin must have a bond with a spren. However, this is probably a higher spren, such as something below Radiantspren but above normal spren. The most likely candidates that we know of are Riverspren and Windspren, though there may be others. I hope I cleared some things up. 2

What is really interesting is not about the main characters, but those details hidden in WoR. There's a lot to research and think. That's how SA is different from other novels:))

I'll try a complete reread next time I'm also very prone to such partial re-readings, and it's what I do most of the time. But I promise you: after having spent some time on this forum and reading all those speculations and comments, an entire reread will be fun, even if it's only to discover the sources and connections for all that stuff you read here. There's just too much you miss on the first read, because of information overload.
