Steeldancer he/him Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 My goodness you guys figured out the back. Kudos to you! Quote A new storm has come. Ash and red lightning sweeps the land awakening our ancient enemies. The Unmade - shadows of the enemy's mind - stir, while the eyes of men open. This war is not - and never was - what they thought it to be. We may soon hold Surges again, for the Radiance has resurfaced in some, and shines toward others. The Captain, broken by loss, seeks reconciliation. The Spy, broken by cruelty, seeks completion. The Stonewalker, broken by oaths, seeks truth. The Traitor, broken by ambition, seeks freedom. And finally, The King. Broken by war, he seeks the past. That which was abandoned. That which he must not know. For those secrets will crush him as they did the Knights who came before. Note in the middle how they say "we" will hold surges again. Did the Sleepless used to have access to surges? Why do they no longer? Why will the Knights bring them back again? I think a surgebinding sleepless would be absolutely terrifying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This fun little quest Not sure about solved it but I suspect we're pretty close:) Arclo says that they used to fight with Radiants so I wouldn't be shocked if they can somehow surgebind but I suspect the mechanics would be changed. But there is also some ambiguity in the use of 'we' in previous back covers so they could be talking about Roshar rather than Aimians, or Dysian Aimians, specifically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toaster Retribution he/him Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 I also think that we might be a reference to Roshar as a whole. If Aimians can Surgebind, Axies is my new Willshaper candidate. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
