Mistborn Surgebinder Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Has anyone put forth the theory of the "soul," for lack of a better term" of Nightblood being an accidentally captured shard? Like, if Nightblood was being created at the same time that Odium was killing a shard, perhaps the soul of that shard somehow got captured in the process of creating Nightblood? I have no evidence to back this up. Just a thought I had.
Weltall Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Nightblood is six or seven hundred years old tops, Odium has been trapped in the Rosharan System for thousands of years. The timeline doesn't work out, even before going into the various possible objections to the idea itself. Edited April 24, 2018 by Weltall

I have no evidence to back this up. Just a thought I had. Not very likely. The timelines don't really mesh up. I do wonder if Nightblood could pick up a shard.
