Feruchemist he/him Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 As we now know, Brandon Sanderson has confirmed that Mistborn Era 4 will include technology that allows for faster than light speed travel. In addition, we know that Sixth of the Dusk takes place further ahead in time than any of the other current Cosmere stories. My theory is that The Ones Above in Sixth of the Dusk are secretly Era 4 Scadrians. The slow reveal of technology to the inhabitants of First of the Sun reflects Harmony's behavior in Mistborn Era 2, and I believe that a group of Scadrians have (in Sixth of the Dusk) traveled to First of the First to harvest the Aviar found there for nefarious purposes. What do you think? 2
Ashspren Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 This is exactly what I believe. Found someone who agrees, yay! If I ever make it to a signing, this is going to be the first question I ask.
+Sorana she/her Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 That definitly could be possible. It would make a nice circle. And more importantly it would increse the possibilty to see more of this beautiful world and of the Aviars. And welcome to the shard @Feruchemist!
tmnsquirtle Posted August 6, 2018 Posted August 6, 2018 Seems likely! Spoiler Questioner [PENDING REVIEW] In Sixth of the Dusk, are the Ones Above Scadrians who invented faster-than-light travel? Brandon Sanderson [PENDING REVIEW] You know, I haven't-- I danced around answering that one, just because I don't quite want to get into it yet. I like the Ones Above being somewhat mysterious. But I have said it is someone you know, right? It is part of the cosmere in the very future. So you're not going to be surprised, because there's a limited number of options. But I haven't said-- 'cause I might do more in that world, and I just want to leave them mysterious for now. source
