Nazh's Shadesmar Map

[DSC01 he/him]

I'm pretty sure that a little note on the map showing Adolin and Shallan's route through Shadesmar is a major hint about where things are going in the series. In the lower right-hand corner, Nazh writes that there is an ominous storm brewing on the horizon.

Now, we learned in RoW that there has been an ominous storm in Shadesmar before--the Everstorm built up there for years before the Parshendi brought it over into the Physical Realm. It was, somehow, the method by which Odium circumvented the Oathpact.

This does not necessarily imply that any new Shards trying to Invest on Roshar would need to start storms of their own in the Cognitive Realm. But it sure could imply that. Certainly, the fact that there is now a new storm in Shadesmar implies that something is happening.

Along those same lines, wasn't there a spot on Nazh's map that was like an X. I think there was also a note saying that he would report what was weird there to Kriss in person.

 

 

Edit: Middle of Azir, above Azimir. What could be there?

Feverstone Keep (because why not)? My hunch is Feverstone Keep was where BAM was when Melishi trapped her in a perfect gem.

We now know from Kelek that event had Major Unintended Consequences even beyond the lobotomization of an entire species. That would have to warrant "weird" I think, and potentially troubling enough in implication to warrant a F2F discussion about what was weird.

I think Feverstone was said to be near Rall Elorim.

Darn it. Yes, it is; I forget the geography of Roshar far too easily.

Hey, I would have forgotten it too if I hadn't just reread Oathbringer.
