Nathrangking he/him Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 We all have scenes that we would love to see in Oathbringer, but are there any scenes that we expressly do not want to see? For me a reconciliation between Amraam and Kaladin would be horrific. The Stormfather getting revenge on Kaladin would also be awful. Well fellow Sharders what do you think? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sovereign he/him Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) Anything related to the Kaladin/Shallan relationship. Love triangles are awful literary devices. Some people should just be friends. Edited September 27, 2017 by The Sovereign 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleksiel Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I don't want any Shalladin scenes either. I also don't want a love triangle, but from what I've heard there will be something, albeit minor... hopefully. Or scenes where Adolin is highprincing and we get bored reading reports. I don't Shallan or Kaladin to have some sort of mental breakdown and again reverse their progress. Though I'm mostly worried about Shallan, it could make for an interesting story arch, I just don't want her to suffer that way, so it's a different kind of things-I-don't want. I don't want Elhokar to remain a whiny brat or to become a squire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Invested Beard Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I'd rather not have too much unresolved tension or drama having to do with the secret societies. I know they're a somewhat important plot device, but I feel like it would be easy to get lost in the weeds there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elena she/her Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Odium's champion Adolin. Or evil Adolin, period. Nah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirscott13 he/him Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I do not want to see Dalinar killing his wife 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxal she/her Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I do not want to see Kaladin and Shallan become a couple or engage into a relationship. I do not want Oroden to die. I do not want Adolin to become Highprince and thus see his development being restricted to leading troupes and playing political games. I do not want Elhokar and Kaladin to have a bromance because it should be Adolin and Kaladin. I do not want Dalinar to keep on ignoring Adolin exists too. I do not want Adolin turn evil or become Odium's Champion, not that I think it will happen, but I most certainly do not want to see it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+eveorjoy she/her Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) I agree with most of what was said, though I don't mind Kaladin and Shallan flirting a bit. They won't end up together. As soon as she learns he killed Heleran that will end any chances for a relationship. I hope they can at least remain friends. But yeah, I like Shaolin. I think they will break up, but I hope they get back together eventually. I don't want Renarin's future seeing powers connected to Odium at all. He is clearly a Truthwatcher, no denying that now as of chapter 10. So, he has enough problems without the forces of evil trying to possess him. I don't want Azir uniting with the Voidbringer against Urithru. I want Lift to mouth off at Dalinar and company in this book. I don't want Taravangain to try to kill Dalinar again. I want him to cause conflicts for Dalinar in other ways. I don't want Dalinar to die in this book. I don't want to wait until the end of Oathbringer to read about Vivenna or Jasnah. Edited September 28, 2017 by eveorjoy misspelled character name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackYeti he/him Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 1 hour ago, eveorjoy said: I don't want to wait until the end of Oathbringer to read about Vivanne or Jasnah. Vivanne? Did you perhaps mean Vivenna? I just don't want Brandon to kill Jasnah, again... I don't think I could take it a second time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tai'shar-Malkier Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 No bloody Shalladin stupidity. No awkward love triangles. Other than that I would hate to see include a painless redemption scene for Szeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zea mays she/her Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I dread the reunion between Shallan and her brothers. Those guys... they are not well. The one that tortures cremlinge especially. I fear some more heart-rending family trauma there. I really hope my fears do not materialize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passion he/him Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I do not want stage time for renarin or jasna or sezth to take away from any of the characters who already have the floor though they will undoubtly eventually get their time.

Daishi5 Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I don't want to find out that Dalinar has had some form of surgebinding potential his whole life. I basically don't want to find out that magic on Roshar is based on a group of special children being given the potential and everyone else is just some muggle who can never do magic. I like the idea of a magic system that any character can earn vs one they are just lucky enough to be eligible for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shig Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I don't want to see Rock forced to fight. It feels very important that he is a pacifist, and I don't want to see that forced to be broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulk he/him Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I don't think pacifist is the right term for Rock - he believes it is beneath his dignity based on his order of birth to do so, not that it is wrong to fight in and of itself. Nonetheless, I do agree with you, Rock should not be made to fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bean Delphiki he/him Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 I don't want to see another character revival, we can't have everyone come back to life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
