Wandering Investor Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I noticed the mention of Wisdom, and it occurred to me that that could be a potential Shard as well. No real proof for, but I think its a reasonable idea to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC01 he/him Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Yeah, I think that was something important that Hoid threw into his trademark confusing monologue, spoken to Shallan on pg 679 of the US hardcover (somewhat near the beginning of chapter 68, for those reading other editions): Quote Some men, as they age, grow wiser. I am not one of those, for wisdom and I have always been at cross-purposes, and I have yet to learn the tongue in which she speaks. If I were a betting man, I'd put money on Wisdom being a Shard.

Ari he/him Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I'd just chalk that up to Hoid speaking poetically for now, but YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazenella he/him Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I can't remember where I saw this on the forum, but I think Chaos asked Brandon to sign his book and give him a shard we didn't know about. On the signed page it said " There is one who wants to survive and hide." So I assume that this is either Survival, or maybe Wisdom. Wisdom because he knows of what Odium can do and wants to avoid it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazer Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Wisdom sounds like a concept that would be a shard that hasn't been represented yet. I suspect we'll see Survival as a combined shard name at some point. Kelsier isn't done yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been proposed before that there would be a shard "Wisdom" or maybe "Enlightenment" that would fit the "shard that wants to survive and hide" though.
