CosmereScholar Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 What do you all think were the most epic failures that nearly happened in the cosmere? Here is my favourite: Oathbringer: Szeth: Perhaps I have merely chosen the wrong men. I know what I will do. I shall swear my loyalty to Dalinar Kholin! Dalinar: Good to have you Szeth. You serve Odium now. Szeth: !!!!!!!!! 6

Bigmikey357 he/him Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Vin facing off against Zane. He picks the right Atium shadow. 1
Use the Falchion Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Oathbringer: Odium: Give me your pain. Dalinar: Sure! Phew, thanks man! That's a load off my back. 1
Truthless of Shinovar he/him Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 Warbreaker: Spoiler *Lightsong is reaching out to Susebron from his cage* The cage is too far away 2
SwordNimiForPresident the sword/that sword Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 The Shin give Szeth Ishar's blade instead. Taravangian accidentally asks for capacitance instead of capacity. Now he randomly shocks people that he touches. Cultivation takes Dalinar's memories of Navani instead. One of the other Heralds died at Aharietiam. Jasnah soulcasts Shallan into stawberry jam instead of soulcasting the poison out of her blood. Kaladin decides not to jump into the chasm, then slips on the wet rocks and falls in anyway. Vasher goes to Roshar, can't figure out how to breathe in Stormlight. Vasher goes to Roshar and then loses Nightblood.. er ..hmm 8

He would have no clue what he got until he zaps someone, and even then he would probably go "... the ever moving storms did I get?" Edited March 26, 2019 by TheFoxQR

Lunamor she/her Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Shallan manages to steal the soulcaster from Jasnah and makes a successful getaway. Her family is all turned into slaves due to the fact that the soulcaster is nonfunctional. 3
TheGirlWhoLookedUp she/her Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 Kaladin doesn’t wake up immediately after his dream and is still asleep when Szeth comes and kills Dalinar. The pancakes at Tashikk aren’t any good, so Lift just leaves and forgets about Nale. 1

WhiteEmporer Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Odium: Do you release me? You must say it with Intent. Dalinar: Storms yes! Good riddance. ... crap, there's a catch, isn't there? 2

I think the point of that was that either path that Zane took would lead to his death, because Vin would see that choice and then make the other move to counter it. Back to the thread topic, Bands of mourning: Harmony: You must choose, return to your world, or move on to eternal paradise. Wax: So long, suckeeeeeers! 2
