Chrono Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 I love Lopen. I really hope he becomes a KR, just to see the look on everyone's faces. Hopefully a Dustbringer. Because it would be just too cool to see a one armed man who sasses everything blow stuff up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremen Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Lopen has the honorblade!!!??? :eek: It just popped into my head driving along. I think I'm thinking about WoR too much. I don't see Szeth dying but I totally see Kaladin defeating him and giving the blade to one of his men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaring at the Survivor Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 How would Kaladin get the Honorblade from Szeth if Szeth remains alive? In addition to that, remember that the Shin will hunt down Szeth's murderer and kill them to retrieve the Blade. So that may not be so great for Lopen.

Popular Post Youngy Posted February 26, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Really, we should have been given this glimpse with LESS context. 'Lopen, you are glowing, and this is impressive. But you can also fly. For this, you may marry my daughter.' 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glaring at the Survivor Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yeah, but who'd give away a Shardblade that lets them walk on walls? RAFO... what? Szeth, due to his condition, can't give away his Blade. And you can't just "steal" a Shardblade from someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shards of Mist Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Who is the only one in the book that knows that the old Radiants could fly? Dalinar. I think this glimpse shows us that Kaladin has now let Dalinar know what he can do. Lopen just happens to be there as they are discussing it IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this glimpse shows us that Kaladin has now let Dalinar know what he can do. Lopen just happens to be there as they are discussing it IMO. He's not the only one. Lopen already asked Kaladin if he could fly, I think it's one of the widely known (but not believed) facts about the Radiants. Kaladin was arguing how pointless it sounds for KR to be able to fly and travel long distances in the blink of an eye, so what's not known is the fact that only two orders could travel, not all of them.

Gloom Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 This is where Rock got mad at Lopen and through him off a cliff. He is just about to hit the apex of his flight. The next line is Lopen screaming in terror. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natans Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 In the end poor Lopen are wrong, Kaladin don't fly he just fall upward. Poor guy probably he will not recieve the hand of Herzadian princess but how know maybe he could receive the hand of her cousin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argent Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 See, at this point I am not even sure if Peter knows what that line is, off the top of his head. It strikes me as very likely that he is doing purely for our torture. Of course, there is one way I could be proven wrong... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaring at the Survivor Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) Hmm... I think you're right... The next line is this: Hoid, who was also the king's Wit, walked up to the campfire. "My prank has worked fantastically! I can not believe everyone is falling for this whole Everstorm slash Final Desolation gibletish! Rumors spread quickly on Roshar." He maniacally cackled and then jumped into the fire... and vanished.

FollowYourMuse Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) Can I ask what intrigues you about the series, as an older adult? For some reason, it makes me incredibly sad to read that last line. I also worry about the author himself. Everybody needs to survive. Well this series intrigues me as I have been a reader of Fantasy and Epic Fantasy since I was a kid. I have invested intellectually, mentally, and emotionally in several series over the years, books that require re-reading over and over again between new releases. I started The Wheel of Time the year after it came out, same with A Song of Ice and Fire, I think one of the few I discovered where there were more than the first or second books was The Chronicles of Amber, which I started reading in High School. These books are my "friends", I have known the characters by name and personality longer than most people I know. Some of them I have grown up with, Some were with me while I raised my children, and now I will have The Stormlight Archive that I will grow old with.
