Darkwalker Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 Hi I'm new to the forum and this question has been annoying me since i reread elantris after i read mistborn so here it goes Brandon has a thing about ribbons, or at least he has a thing about putting ribbons in his cosmere novels, the “burial cloths” that the priests put on the people taken by the shaod in Elantris are “...long and flowing, like ribbons sewn together into a loose robe.” the mistcloak in the mistborn series is described similarly in the stormlight archive ribbons seem to have a special significance to Kaladin with both sil and windspren being referred to a ribbons of light and the fact that bandages have played a major part in Kal’s life (but that might be coincidence) not to mention the references to ribbons when transferring investiture throughout the cosmere novels this is just what i came up with in a few minutes if anyone else has any ideas i would love to hear them
