The Rooster he/him Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Quote WoR Chapter 2 He unconsciously sucked in Stormlight. Just a little, a fraction of a sphere’s worth. It flowed through his veins like a wave of pressure, like winds trapped in a small enclosure. I know that Stormlight gives pretty incredible healing powers, but regardless the hypertensive effects it causes on your Cardiovascular system CANNOT be good for you. Magically increased blood pressure has got to have lead in the past to some poor Redshirt KR throwing a stroke, having an aneurism or even blowing a heart valve. Does anyone else cringe when they read that Kaladin's veins had a wave of pressure? Edited February 28, 2014 by AG Rooster 1

Does anyone else cringe when they read that Kaladin's veins had a wave of pressure? LOL (This is maybe a "Gear 2" analogy?). Any additional pressure would be automatic compensate with the extra healing factor and additional tissue resistence and power granted by the stormlight I think. Well and it's Magic !!! Do you think that surge binging will have side effects like "powder magic" ? Where the user get addict and the excessive use mess up with your body ? That would be a interesting idea, some addict to stormlight and the risks involved =) 2

Natans he/him Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Kaladin starts crushing Stormlight infused gems and snoring them. "Just a sniff Syl .. just a sniff" Well I think that the Szeth will do bridge 4 really good (the so alluded heartbreaking moment in the book - grief later move now) Kaladin could be felling down by his loss and you know the rest of the history Edited March 2, 2014 by Natans
Swimmingly he/him Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 He's gotta get his fix man. You just don't get it. Funnily enough, this is exactly the method used by powder mages in that series.
