Yes FINALLY a ferring! I call steelrunner

Congrats. Try not to feel to down while you're storing. It'll totally be worth it 

[+Extesian he/him]

Congrats @StrikerEZ and @The Flash, they're nice milestones. I find myself a little jealous as they took away my access to kinetic investiture in exchange for dominion over thousands of men. Gimme power over nature, rather than power of men, any day

They told me I was a liar! They told me I was wrong! David-son-son-Malcolm . . . Truthless. They named me Truthless! Are they back? Are they all back?

Yes. (this isn't the right set of dialog for me to call you a coward. But you do get to run away.)

BTW, you're a monster. At this rate you'll be the Stormin' Stormfather sometime next year.

I don't get it. I really really don't. It's ridiculous, and I actually feel bad. 

I love this site, and I feel like people contribute so much more than I do. 

It makes absolutely no sense to me.

You're polite, respectful, helpful, intellectually curious, you've gone from thanking people for WoBs and theories to providing them yourself as your knowledge has increased, you reason well, you engage in any topic, and you contribute hugely to the site. The only thing you're always wrong about is your estimation of yourself

Thanks. I'll try to tuck my self esteem issues and depression away a bit.

Nah guy, if there was ever an online group that supports that sort of thing, it's this weird combination of people who like some dude's books. Let others support you the way you do them. Be yourself, as you have been mate, and let yourself slowly believe that the nice things people think of you are because you earn them

As far as breath goes though, your getting awfully close to sentience. I think you'll complete the process within the week. 

I was a little off on my guess but not by much.

It's been a distracted couple of weeks for me Sadly we have to wait a year to see if my Stormfather prediction comes through for you! Meanwhile I predict that you overtake me by...mmmm...July 25.

I'm an arbiter. Beware of my political might! 

[Calderis he/him]

I would really like to know what my connection to Hoid is. 

[Ammanas]

I'm happy with my current rank of Gyorn. It's kind of like being a cardinal in the medieval times with the raw power I can wield (even though I am not catholic its always been a dream of mine to be one in that era). Funny thing is about four levels up is Stormwarden. I would much rather be a Gyorn than a weather man.

I understand. There have been a couple ranks that when they changed all I could think was "man... I liked that one"

Are you thinking of worldsinger? Sigzil's apprenticeship? Or you do mean the Terris?

There's a WoB that someone asked him about the similarities in the names and asked if it had something to do with Hoid and his response was... Vague or RAFO or something else I don't remember. The only part I remember is that the similarity is not just coincidence.

Ah legit.

QUESTION

Worldbringers and Worldsingers -- similar mission?

BRANDON SANDERSON

The similarity of the names is intentional.

QUESTION

Similar origin?

BRANDON SANDERSON

Yes.

QUESTION

Did Hoid start them?

BRANDON SANDERSON

That’s a RAFO. That’s a RAFO, but definitely they have a similar origin.

 

[Calderis he/him]

DESTROY!!! 

Or if my command is different: Hello, would you like to speculate wildly today? 

[StrikerEZ he/him]

@Calderis That's amazing.

Also, I guess I'm kidnapping people and draining their blood for science now....
