jmass12 Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Ok, so I will admit that I am desperate and stretching as Oathbringer grows near, but is it possible that the silver knife Shallan sees in the Ghostblood's basement lair collection of random items is the Nazh/Kelsier knife from SH? I tried to find direct physical evidence but came up empty other than possible Ghostblood worldhopping and my theory that the basement isn't on Roshar, which I'm sure has been discussed already.

Green Hoodie Mistborn he/him Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 The basements not on Roshar? It's a new theory to me… Please expound upon that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmass12 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 For me, it was the great pains that were taken to point out how odd a basement was, let alone a basement in a basement, let alone one on the Shattered Plains, let alone one full of theoretical worldhoppers and trophies from other planets (maybe).

jmass12 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Yes! That's the other connection I forgot to mention. Nash's home world world with an emphasis on the importance of silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmass12 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 Also, maybe we can speculate that Kelsier dabbles in worldhopping post-SH, and somehow that's how the knife ends up with other worldhoppers. I think we can say WoR is post-SH as Hoid allomances while talking to young Shallan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmereAvair Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 A little side connection that I think is possible that the Scandrians are the ones behind the fabrial technology being created at a exponential rate. In WoK Dalinar even mentions that Fabrials could not be found in his visions of the past being sent by Taln. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roshar is large and has plenty of scientists and good communication for its tech level via spanreed. Also, Taln isn't sending anyone visions. Do you mean the Stormfather?

CosmereAvair Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Whoops my bad meant to say the storm father about the visions, and I never said that the fabrial technology was moving at a suspicious rate, just exponential one. Only reason I think that scandrains could be involved is because they seem to be the most technically advanced race in the cosmere, and its not really based on anything but that, its more of just a hopeful thing really.
