Ishar writing a book? Possibilities for Book 5 title (KoW)

[Jasqueen she/her]

So is Ishar writing a book recording his

Spoiler

Mengele style spren experiments?

We know that at the very least some of it is written down because Dalinar reads it. 
 

and if he is writing a book, could this book be the name of book 5, which we know will follow the pattern WoKWoRORoWKoW (or possibly KoWH since there’s 5 more books to come and this would be the perfect place to stick the letter of symmetry in the middle. 
 

If so what new possibilities does that raise?

Please in the future report this rather than pinging individual staff. I won't always be around.

Sorry. Wasn't sure if this was a case where I should report. Didn't want them to get in trouble.

Reporting is not a bad thing. It just makes it so every mod can see it. It's not problematic. DO NOT PM or ping mods; always report a thing if it is moderation related. We will follow up appropriately. It's just if you ping, then only that mod can see your ping, whereas any mod can see the report. Pinging/PMing just makes the whole process slower and is a bad idea. See here: 

Anyway, this is all very off topic. PM me if you have other issues, but yeah, you should always always report things of this nature.

Yeah, good idea. So I made a thread before RoW was released, and it was that I thought I saw a pattern. Nohadon wrote the First book, WoK, WoR was an in-world book, Dalinar wrote the third, and I thought there would be a book for RoW. And I was right. So, yay, I guess.

I saw that thread and I am such a fan! I thought so many points were really interesting but also I had thought that I wasn’t supposed to bring it back bc it was from a while ago. But I just saw that it was revived and I will probably delete thistomorrow and re-post there because I want thoughts on what

Spoiler

shoddy spren mangling research 

could be titled. 

[Bearer of all agonies he/him]

No, don’t delete this, you had the idea for the fifth book, so you should keep it. 
Great idea btw. I think you’re right about it being Ishar, because he is just the most logical.

I like the idea of using the H of Symmetry for Honor himself. This is a good idea.

[Dreamwa1ker she/her]

If it refers to Ishar, and if Ishar was involved in the catastrophe on Ashyn, I like "Killer of Worlds". It could be his writing on what happened there. Could have a double meaning too if Dalinar loses and becomes a Fused!

holy crap you were actually like 90% of the way there to Knights of Wind and Truth hahaha, wow. He also snuck the 'and' in there.

Im assuming its gotta be something written about Kaladin and the Windrunners, hopefully not a eulogy but maybe just since its the end of the first 5 era, and he'll probably contribute in some key way, its like a book detailing the legend of the glorious stormblessed haha, but still could be written by Ishar, maybe near the end as a project for Kals mental health clinic after hes been cured

With knights of wind and truth - windrunners is obvious for the wind part, but wouldn't the truth part be lightweavers? We know that the spren of these two groups don't get along so could be about a historic disagreement. Or could be about Kaladin and Shallan if it is a newer book

I think it'll be about Szeth - he was truthless, and then he wasn't, truth is important to him.
