(crypitc spoilers) Making up Death Rattles.

[Edgedancer he/him]

So there have been many attempts to get information out of the Death Rattles. Something that became very clear is how, when the right event is found, they fit rather perfectly. So I thought: Hey I have never seen a topic for making up some for events that already happend, so lets make thread for that and have people guess which event is meant.

 

My first contestant.

From the corpse slain by a truth lie seven giants raise to devour the land.

[chikinllama]

I have seen the unchanged Stick and heard his voice. His return is eminent: tremble at his logic.

[Lightflame he/him]

"I face the mechanical man who killed my father. He has claimed my hand, and I am beaten. Now I face his truth. He is my father."

-Jed-eyed man, 5 seconds pre-death.

 

Hey, you never said it had to be Stormlight Archive related.

[GreyPilgrim he/him]

"I have gained power, lost it, and gained it again. Now, the one-armed man glows."

[Seloun]

My first contestant.

From the corpse slain by a truth lie seven giants raise to devour the land.

 

Jah Keved, I assume.

 

'Third strike wins all.'

 

'A man prays before betrayal, listening to cheers, before seeking the betrayer.'

[Left he/him]

So I know the answers to both Seloun and GreyPilgrim, can I say both or just one?

 

"Murdered yet alive. The Heretic thinks"

[Fifth of Daybreak he/him]

"He watches! As the water becomes sullied, the one whose constant is change watches! Oh Stormfather, our secrets are his to discover."

[Ketek]

"The pit beckons, and helplessly I tumble into it. I have seen what lies inside; I have seen the hand of men sully the spren. The deranged ones come..."

[TheOneKEA]

"I stand in shock. The Blade comes, and she who lies speaks truth. Oh! I die!"

[Patrick Star]

To quote the Elder Scrolls:

 

"But at the same time, all of it is true.  Even the falsehoods.  Especially the falsehoods."

 

-Shin bookshop owner, 4 seconds before death

 

And:

 

"Sweet mother, sweet mother, send your child unto me, for the sins of the unworthy must be baptized in blood and fear"

 

-Female darkeyes nurse, 13 seconds before death

[Shaggai]

The darkness within, burning through the soul like a storm of fire. Arise, darkness, and destroy!

-A Veden fruit seller, 6 seconds pre-death.

[Kasimir he/him]

"But who is that, gliding beside you, with his head of lines? I hear the splash of water, see a man alone."

-Darkeyed spearman, 2 seconds pre-death.

[TheArcanist he/him]

"The thousand-faced enemy breaks through, and the armor of my soul collapses. Four giants of steel and flame break apart one by one, but the final layer must withstand. I deny you with the power of those who will come after and those who have gone before!"

 

And, maybe...
