Mayya she/her Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 Imagine that Sanderson (huge emphasis on imagine) decided to bless us with a Stormlight Archive novella. What do you want it to be on? Personally, I am dying for a Heralds novella! I need more information on the heralds and I need some questions to be answered! Plus, imagine reading about the Heralds in the height of their glory how cool would that be!!! 1
Nashan’Elin he/him Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 Personally, I’d really like the novella that he actually did write, for his eyes only, about Jasnah’s travels through Shadesmar during WoR. As for information about the Heralds, I’ve heard that we’ll only get that in books 6-10, so you will get what you want, but you may have to wait juuuust 10 or so years for it 1
Neithan Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 A full 40,000 words of the Lopen. I don't care about the context, or if there is even a plot. Just Lopen calling people gancho while sticking them to the walls or enticing women by glowing. 12
HipsterStick he/him Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 Can I make a list? -Something with Rysn. I have zero idea why I like her so much, but I do, and there's no point in denying it. -Nohadon and his life/journey to Urithiru. -A Bridge Four Novella. Nothing but Bridge Four. -Jasnah, prior to Way of Kings, focusing on her research and interaction with the Ghostbloods. -Adolin winning his Shardblade/becoming the honorable fella that he is. And Finally: -I Am a Stick: The Novel 7
ghajan monk Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 A story told from the perspective of the Aimians as they observe the Heralds and the Unmade. 3
Vashakh Sadeas he/him Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 I can't even!! Yes!! "Stick: the novel!" Can you imagine the dialogue?? "I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick.

Ironeyes Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 Ten anecdotes told by ancient KRs (one from each order obviously) about their adventures. Special emphasis on what each order was like, what the personalities of the Knights were like, and how they tended to use their Surges 10

Vashakh Sadeas he/him Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 @Ookla the Sylvan precisely so, but.. more than a chapter. The whole book!! Maybe not as big as OB, but close
FieldSurgeon she/her Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 Great suggestions above, I'd also like to see a spren novella! 2
teknopathetic he/him Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 - Eshonia on Braize - Warbreaker Scholars showing up on Roshar for the first time and seeing history happen from 500 years ago. - . 2

CarolaDavar she/her Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 I would love a novella featuring any of the non-main character Kholins. Jasnah, Elhokar, Renarin, Navani, Galivar. . . 1
I Am Witless she/her Posted December 5, 2017 Posted December 5, 2017 I'd love a story about Rock meeting Hoid on the Peaks. 3
LordMoose he/him Posted December 6, 2017 Posted December 6, 2017 I would generally like a novella about Hoid's adventures – something written from his viewpoint. During the entire Stormlight Archives (among others), I've really enjoyed reading his chapters where he interacts with Kaladin or Shallan. Alas, I will have to wait for that one, I am afraid. Generally, I would also like something historical about Roshar or even the Cosmere – more information about the Heralds is also high on my list. 1
Stormlightning she/her Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 Syl's pre-physical realm adventures Vargo and Adro childhood mischief Mraize's Worldhopping Adventure Guide OMG...pre-Dalinar Evi story would probably make me bawl Hoid's Apprentice by Sigzil
Yezrien Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 A comedy about Taravangian. On one of his dumber days, he accidentally slips past his handlers and gets loose in Kharbranth. He has lots of wacky adventures, makes some unlikely friends, and learns a valuable lesson about family or something. 3
T8* he/him Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) I think Kaladin's life as a slave would be cool. Or an ancient history of the war between the humans and voidbringers and how the Oathpact was created. It would be interesting to see how it all started. Edited December 22, 2017 by T8*
Lord Mistborn Bondbreaker he/him Posted December 22, 2017 Posted December 22, 2017 A Mistborn Skybreaker Novella would be EPIC. Set on Scadrial, it would be all about the Skybreaker trying to help Non Allomancer Kelsier on some plan against the Lord Ruler. But also struggling with his oaths to follow the law. Also mainly because a Mistborn Skybreaker could kick butt.
kaladar Posted December 22, 2017 Posted December 22, 2017 I'd like one that involves Mraize/The Ghostbloods and gives more insight into their mission. 1
DalinarsThrill he/him Posted December 26, 2017 Posted December 26, 2017 One about Gavilar would be cool. Also one on Kaladin's parents would be insightful as well!

Wow, I didn't know he actually wrote that. I'm a huge Jasnah fan and was waiting to find out about her Shadesmar travels in OB. I hope he ends up releasing it. I've heard (only rumor at this point, I think) that a novella for Rysn was going to happen, which I'd be all for.
Ataraxian Wist she/her Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 Mraize, Rysn, or Szeth. Especially if Mraize shows us more about Aethers and where they come from.
TheDoomsday he/him Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Would like a novella starring a Knight Radiant before the Reference. Specifically, how they reacted when they found out Spoiler that the humans conquered the land from the singers

I'm pretty sure Brandon said he was planning a Rysn novella during the OB signing in Newcastle. I'd also like to see Jasnah's adventures in Shadesmar, but I think the one great opportunity Brandon has missed, which would really well as a double feature novella, is the night before the wedding. Adolin's stag do, starring Adolin, Dalinar, Renarin, Kaladin, Elhokar, and Bridge Four (plus Pattern, as a male Spren), and the hijinks they get up to, and the second volume, Shallan's hen do, starring Shallan, Jasnah, Navani, Veil, Radiant, Shallan's new spy teacher (whose name I have forgotten), Adolin's tailor (plus Syl as a female Spren). Oh, and Re-Shephir too, because, why not?
