Voidspawn he/him Posted November 30, 2020 Posted November 30, 2020 Does anyone know if it is confirmed or not if Radiant Shards can split into two, dual-wielded Blades? Thanks!
Chasmgoat he/him Posted November 30, 2020 Posted November 30, 2020 I have wondered the same thing, I have no idea.
Weltall Posted December 1, 2020 Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) No, because that would require splitting the soul of the spren and they really wouldn't like that. Edited December 1, 2020 by Ookla the Crimson King 1

So just a theory from a Shard near you: 1) The Honorblades are not spren. 2) Spren can form Shardblades. 3) KR hear "dead" shardblades, very unpleasant(Renarin's life in danger and he puts it away) This leads me to believe that while a spren's soul cannot(morally, ethically, or reasonably) be split, you could wield both your sprenblade and an Honorblade. This leads to a further theory that perhaps, somehow, it is possible to use Push/Pull(I know, I know, Investiture resistance) or Lashings(same here) or maybe even fabrials(not sure if using these would have Investiture resistance) to create a kind of circle of flying Honorblades... like what Kelsier did with that nasty Inquisitor, only the metal is Honorblades. Just a musing 1

We already know this is possible as we saw Nale summon both his original Honorblade and a living Shardblade in Oathbringer. You can also bond multiple deadeye Blades and wield them simultaneously as Amaram does at the end if the book. In theory you could do a living/deadeye combo (but both would hate it and scream at you in different ways) or a dual living Blade combo (if you can manage to juggle two sets of oaths) but thoae are a lot more improbable.

The Honorblades are pure 'Tanavastium' so they'd be just as resistant to Investiture as a regular Shardblade, ie affecting them would be really really hard.
