[OB] The Interlude laundry lady

Recommended Posts

Do you think the laundry lady could become a Radiant? I thought during the Interlude that if she was that traumatized by Shallash ripping a painting, that she could potentially be broken enough by it to bond a spren. Maybe she was already broken, depending on her reasoning for being so dedicated to laundry. The fighting in Urithiru during Part 5, full of stabbing wounds of higher-ups (more valuable clothing) was probably enough to break her if she wasn't already.

Thoughts on whether this counts as being broken?

If being scared by something was enough to become a Radiant, Roshar would be FULL of them by now!   Trauma is just a pre-requirement - you also have to be the right sort of person to attract that kind of spren.

Anything is possible, but I doubt we'll see her again.  She was just a viewpoint to see what Mraize and Ash were up to.

I don't think so.  It has to be pretty significant trauma--enough to crack your soul enough to allow the Investiture in.  Something that changes who you are, deep down.  The laundry lady seemed pretty happy and dedicated, to me.
