imriel452 Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 So I finally got my copy of Skyward from the US today, and as per, I will always ask Brandon for some information about a shard we haven't seen yet, and he gave me the following info this year... I have two possible ideas with this, feel free to pick at them though! 1) Brandon is referencing Bavadin, and possibly suggesting that there are six separate entities or aspects to Autonomy 2) It's the eyes, nostrils and front fangs of a Dragon SPECULATE! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pagerunner he/him Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 Man, he is such a tease. I like the dragon interpretation. I wouldn't have seen it on my own, but now that you mention it, I can definitely see that face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its because he said 'picture', not symbol, like the one we have seen for Harmonium...makes me see a face... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelly Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 I like the idea of it being a dragon face. Especially since I have no other ideas. XD I feel like this is an inkblot test, "What do you see?" Tornado. Birds flying in a V formation. Things getting smaller the closer they get together. Perspective? A mostly invisible skeleton with 6 ribs showing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ark1002 Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 Or maybe he is hinting about Trell, who in the original religion the stars where his eyes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciridae Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 I see a dragon too, but with horns, eyes and nostrils like this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Inquisitive he/him Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) @Ciridae kinda looks like a cow.... Maybe allusion to a shepherd? Shard of guidance? Idk.... Edited November 19, 2018 by Steel Inqusitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahriman he/him Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 They kinda look like spider eyes to me, which would just be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+hwiles Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) It just looks like a bunch of mirrored P's to me (d's/b's/q's as well I guess). Shard of Reflection? Shard of Purity (or any other P-word) that has been splintered into 6 pieces? Shard of DQ? Shard of Dairy Queen? Shard of the Blizzard? Oh my God, it's Frost, the Dragon!!! Wow, 700 posts, who knew?

ZenBossanova Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Is there anything Canon about what Sho-Del look like, and how many eyes they have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scion of the Mists Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I don't think there's anything canon about them as nothing has been published yet, but there's descriptions of them in some of the Bridge Four chapters from Dragonsteel Prime that Brandon's posted on his website. It even mentions something about their eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sovereign he/him Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) I don't have my Cosmere star chart handy, but maybe we should be giving it a closer look? Edit: Found a link to the image; Hmm, The "Dragon" in the Scar constellation could be what is depicted if you looked at it straight on. It doesn't seem to match up with any of the constellations which is what I was originally thinking. Edited November 19, 2018 by The Sovereign Added in the star chart. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted November 19, 2018 Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 Clearly that is a dragon's head with a snout (the bottom symbols) and they have long ears (the top ones) and are wearing sunglasses (the middle) making them the coolest dragon since the Dragonaught.

My thought was that if you had one more eye on the right you'd get the symbol of SEELE from Neon Genesis Evangelion but yours fits better with what's actually there. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
