The Ghostbloods' symbol is described in the books as "three interlocking diamonds", and I have always visualized that as three diamonds in a line, or chain. Imagine my surprise then, when I saw that exact same symbol in the list of Aons on the Coppermind. Specifically Aon Ati: "Hope", is three interlocking diamonds with a few dots added. This seemed like just a coincidence until I thought of the Ire. A group of Elantrians who seemed intent on taking up the power of a Shard. Could the Ghostbloods be the Rosharan arm of this organization? What do y'all think, is this just too far-fetched, or a possibility? (Also, is there a better description of the Ghostbloods' symbol I'm missing? That could support or disprove this.)

The symbol actually appears in one. Of Shallan's drawings in the book

It is not in a line. I'll try to find it and come back and edit it in.

I always thought it was a symbolic representation of the Three Realms, with the central intersection being a Perpendicularity.

That is a very good point, it might be. Seems like the kind of thing the guy with stuff from every Shardworld would do.

I think there's some special Realmatic thing that happens in a tri-Shard scenario, and the Ghostbloods either know or at least suspect this thing, so they're gunning for it.

That or Ambition is split into 3 big Splinters and the Ghostbloods are relevant to that situation. (Ghosts, Shades, who knows?)

Ha, I suggested that, minus the perp because we didn't know what it looked like, early 2017

Just speculation here, but we know that the Ghostbloods have world hoppers and are therefore somewhat Cosmere aware. What if the the three overlapping diamonds of their insignia represents the three realms? 

I'm curious if I'm to blame here :lol:
