NoiseSpren he/him Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Hi, I am writing this because of the most important thing in SA: Ten Heralds and (=) ten Fools. We know (I think we know) probably three of them: Ash, Nale and Taln. I think that I found Jezrien, but it is not 100%. Any suggestions or (i)racional theories?
Toaster Retribution he/him Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Interesting. Where did you find Jezrien? Some popular forum theories for the others are: -Kalak as the guy who hangs out with Nale at Gavilars party. -Ishar as either Tezim, the Tukari god-priest mentioned a couple of times, or possibly as an ardent in the Palaneum (the second one is by @Steeldancer, I'll summon him in case he wants to speak for it himself). -Paliah as an ardent in the Palaneum. I belive someone got this one confirmed per a WoB in a signed book. -Chana as Liss, the assassin hired by Jasnah in the WoR prologue. I don't subscribe to this one, personally, but there are people who do. -The main theory for Jezrien is the drunk guy talking to Szeth at the WoK prologue? Is this your idea too, or do you have another theory?

Is this your idea too, or do you have another theory? WHO DARES TO SUMMON ME?! Anyway this guy shows up in a chapter, outside the palaneum. The chapter heading had 4 pictures of Ishar. Makes me suspicious of anyone who looks like they may be a Herald when that happens. It is also possible that the guy is just a normal ardent. But I'm going with Ishar, at least until proved otherwise. 1
Toaster Retribution he/him Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 @Steeldancer I love summoning people. They come at my bidding.
Argent he/him Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 I had a theory a while back where, tangentially, I looked for the Heralds: I revised said theory recently, and I did a more up-to-date passthrough, including educated (in the context of the theory) guesses about where the missing Heralds might be:

StormblessDave Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Isn't Shalash more or less confirmed? She was the woman who appeared in the interludes and destroyed works of art(most probably her own statues and pictures)

Vev like all the others is female Edited October 1, 2017 by Yata

I don't subscribe to this one, personally, but there are people who do. I believe the rationale for that one is that Peter confirmed that a single character has seen Chana at some point during either WoK or WoR, and that makes Liss a likely candidate just because no one else really fits. 1

Yeah, I know this. Its just a gut feeling I have. Liss seems too mentally stable.

iohn he/him Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 I kind of like Danlan for the Terriswoman world-hopper that Brandon mentions, though I dont really have any evidence for this other than that she is one of the more prominent of the obscure women.

It's the rationale Calderis uses for following the theory, but it's not where it started. Me and Weltall came up with the theory back in April. He pinned her as a potential Herald, and I added some thoughts that led me towards Chana being the most likely one. The WoP certainly helps out, but the idea is a fair bit older
psc92 Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 @The One Who Connects Thanks for pointing that out. I actually wasn't aware that the Liss = Chana theory had that much momentum before the WoP.
