JonW8 Posted December 3, 2017 Posted December 3, 2017 Is it Food and the surviving singers who are raiding the caravans on the Shattered Plains? No one is hurt during these attacks and they say the attacks don't make sense. 1
shawnhargreaves he/him Posted December 3, 2017 Posted December 3, 2017 That's what I had assumed. I was keeping an eye out for them during OB, and this was the only thing that seems like even a potential clue where they are at. I can't wait to read Venli discovering that she is not the only remaining Listener after all.
Starla Posted December 3, 2017 Posted December 3, 2017 I don't think so. I'm pretty sure there were flying Fused amongst the attackers when Bridge Four went to check on the caravan in Part 2. Kaladin watched them fly away. Also, Moash fought a flying Fused when they took his shardblade and plate, and Graves was killed. I am a little bummed we didn't see Thude's group in this book. I hope they show up in future books and help bridge the gap between humans and parshmen, along with Rlain and Venli. As a side note, it's funny you call him "Food." I also thought that was his name the first time I listened to the audiobook... I went and looked up the spelling in the ebook because I thought it was too weird to have a Parshendi named "Food."
JonW8 Posted December 3, 2017 Author Posted December 3, 2017 I was listening to the audio book, I thought he was named food because he loves to eat. I agree the flying guys make it more complex but these attacks were never explained and we were reminded of the remaining listeners several time by Venli's thoughts.
Starla Posted December 3, 2017 Posted December 3, 2017 @JonW8 I took the raids as the Fused trying to disrupt supply caravans to the shattered plains. There are a lot of people in Urithiru who need food, clothing, furniture, etc., and in the early parts of OB, the Narak oathgate was the only way to bring supplies into the city. Attacking the caravans would cut off supplies and cause chaos. I think we'll see more of Thude and co. in the future, but I don't think they were behind the attacks. At least I hope not.... there were a lot of dead Parshendi bodies in the caravan that Bridge Four investigated. It seems Rock is not the only excellent archer in his family.
