NoiseSpren he/him Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) Nightwatcher offered Dalinar Nightblood. Interesting. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE? PS: great foreshadowing... Edited June 16, 2018 by NoiseSpren
Storyspren Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 My crazy theory is Vasher gave nightblood to the night watcher in exchange for becoming able to get power from high storms. 3
Toaster Retribution he/him Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 What intrigues me is that Nale might have been to the NW to get Nightblood. 1
NoiseSpren he/him Posted June 16, 2018 Author Posted June 16, 2018 Nightblood as a currency... Interesting idea. But I think Vasher wanted something else and now he regrets it.
Song she/her Posted June 17, 2018 Posted June 17, 2018 I wondered if Vasher gave up nightblood in return for no longer need breath to stay alive. What I really want to know is what Nale did/gave up/was cursed with to get Nightblood?
earthexile Posted June 17, 2018 Posted June 17, 2018 We are overlooking something, I think. Nightblood is a heavily invested entity, with some kind of consciousness. Could Nightblood be the 'person' who made a deal with the Night Watcher? 1
goody153 Posted June 17, 2018 Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) Interesting it's possible that Vasher did that but there was some sort of method to absorb stormlight without becoming Radiant in Roshar after all. It could be either and how much would Endowment's investure(Vasher's returned breath is a splinter after all) interfere with Nightwatcher's boon/bane is a problem tho. Even Felt was ignored/denied by Nightwatcher cause he's basically made up of Preservation/Ruin Edited June 17, 2018 by goody153
Calderis he/him Posted June 17, 2018 Posted June 17, 2018 Vasher didn't need the Nightwatcher to be able to infuse. That's something that the hole in a Nalthians spiritweb for breath allows if you know how. Quote BlackYeti With most magic systems, you've said that you need some sort of gap in your soul for the Investiture to get in. On Nalthis, there's obviously a bit of it that they can give away. Is this how Vasher is able to get Stormlight? Brandon Sanderson Oh, is this-- Yeah. source
Angsos Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 Isn't it possible Nale killed whoever actually got Nightblood from Nightwatcher as opposed to getting it himself. Being a Herald, he would know who Nightwatcher and Cultivation and would want to stay far, far away.
