+Oltux72 he/him Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 How could a Knight Radiant cause a desolation? Has Sylphrena given us the answer? A Bondsmith has created the Oathpact. Odium assumed that Dalinar could set him free. Could a Bondsmith undo the Oathpact and cause a permanent Desolation? Did Ishar have a valid point? More Radiants -> a new Bondsmith likelier -> a new Bondsmith would not know what he is doing 1
ftl Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Alternate theory - Ishar was lying all along, he's been with Odium trying to make sure Roshar is unprepared for the Desolation. 2
mosaab Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Ishar mixing truth with lies creates a more engaging narrative than him lying all the time. I think he was lying to nale about the radiants accessing greater surges might restart the desolation, but I think he was telling the truth about radiants accessing greater power without honor to regulate them being a problem. 1
dgreene196 Posted October 3, 2020 Posted October 3, 2020 I definitely look forward to getting a conversation with Ishar that isn't just pompous raving via spanreed. An interlude would be fantastic - plus that's a geographic area of Roshar about which we haven't gotten much info. 2
