NewbSombrero Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Okay, but as I was reading chapter 96 from Navani's POV at the meeting where she made everyone bring their own chair, the whole thing she had going throughout the scene about "order from chaos" just really felt like the lead in we so often get to Radiants Speaking the Words, and that also feeling like the type of antithesis we often see in a lot of the Ideals, so I'm wondering if that was some foreshadowing of Navani becoming a Radiant. Did anyone else get that vibe? If that is the case, what order do you think that Ideal would go with? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikerEZ Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 Hmm...I didn't really see it that way, but I wouldn't be too surprised if she didn't become a Radiant, considering spren tend to gather where there are already Radiants anyway. But that felt like it was just part of her character, and I don't really know how that would fit any of the orders. Plus, I think it's nice that she isn't a Radiant, not every character that gets a PoV needs to be a Radiant. It gives us an interesting perspective to see the world from (relatively) normal people.

dawsonyoung Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 New here, just binged through all Stormlight content so far and now that I'm done and browsing forums and whatnot this is by far the topic that seemed most obvious to me which no one is talking about. I totally think that "I will make order from chaos" could be a 2nd ideal either as a variant on the "I will unite instead of divide" of the Bondsmiths (do we know if the words have to be exactly the same or, especially with only 3 Bondsmiths can they differ?) or as a Stoneward. This isn't to say that I think she should become a Radiant, but that it seems consistent with the progression we've seen from other Radiants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordNimiForPresident Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 "Order from chaos" is pretty much the definition of Cultivation, so do with that what you will.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karger Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 This is largely why I believe that Navani is a potential bondsmith. The Sibling seems to be a spren that combines Honor and Cultivation's intents so growth and rules. It also seems to be involved with the governance of Urithiru and the running of a city "order from chaos." Navani also attracts gloryspren which are associated with bondsmiths and she has a lot of experience getting people to work together. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
