Argent he/him Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 The tree branch has been confirmed to be a branch from Yolen, I believe. The silver knife is widely believed to be just a knife from Threnody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormfather-in-Law Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) Pink Crystal is probably an Aether. Edited May 3, 2018 by Pagerunner Removed OB Spoilers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljósmóður she/her Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 I've seen suggestions on other threads that the hairpins are actually hemalurgic spikes - not my idea but I quite like that one and it makes sense. Is the tree branch definitely confirmed as Yolen? Just, I remember a thread when WoR first came out, suggesting it was the bone of a Dakhor monk (but that was years ago and it may have been superseded by a WoB). And the dye flower is called Tears of Edgli, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gasper he/him Posted April 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 I think that the crystal is likely something from either First of the Sun, White Sand, or an Atium Crystal. The Hair pins as Hemalurgic spikes makes sense, especially if they are Kandra spikes because we know that the blessing spikes are small and thin.

I've not been active on here for ages and need a bit of a chance to explore the new Arcanum for things like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Questioner[PENDING REVIEW] Mraize's Basement Emporium. Is that more like a trophy room or a "In case of emergencies" room? Multiple people[PENDING REVIEW] Or a bank vault? Or a weapon's vault? Or both? Brandon Sanderson[PENDING REVIEW] So, yes. *multiple people talking* I mean, he can't use the Aether, right? He can't use the Aether, he doesn't have an Aether. But the sand, the sand does stuff. So a handful of sand is a really useful amount of sand to have if you're not a sandmaster. Because sand reacts to investiture. So if you let it fade and you take it somewhere, as soon as investiture goes kinetic, it'll turn white again. So you'll be able to use it to tell who's using inve..it works just like a Seeker, like bronze pulses. So having white sand, having sand around is really good. If you can keep the little beasties that are growing on the sand around, they will react to basically the investiture equivalent of radiation. So that's handy. source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Brandon Sanderson Potential Cosmere Stories List Here are things that at one point I've had in the works, and probably someday plan to do, in the 'osmere: Dragonsteel/Liar of Partinel. (Hoid's origin story, to be written sometime after Stormlight is done.) Untitled Silverlight novella. (What it says on the tin.) Aether of Night. (Still in the cosmere, and you can see the odd remnant of an Aether popping up here and there. Bound to be drastically different from the unpublished novel. Basically, the only thing from it that is canon is the magic system.) Silence Divine. (Disease magic novella set on Ashyn.) SeonidAether of Night, aethers also show up in Liar of Partinel. Was that cannibalized... Brandon Sanderson That was a cannibalization, it's an attempt at repurposing and I didn't like it so it probably won't go forward that way but it was an attempt because it worked so well to mash Allomancy and Feruchemy into the same system and I didn't like how it went but... As for Aether's themselves... the WoB repository is pretty empty, so you'd have to ask somebody who's read the sample text, which is not me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
