The Lost Order Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 Does anyone know who Thaidakar's master is? In RoW Mraiz talks about how his master is Thaidakar but he also has a master. Thaidakar being a cognitive shadow really the only higher rank would be godhood. Which would also mean that the ghostbloods are ruled by a god. Any thoughts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mraize's master (his Babsk) is Iyatil. her master is Thaidakar. also some of that is RoW spoilers, and shouldn't be shared outside the RoW section. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted December 23, 2020 Report Share Posted December 23, 2020 You can't have RoW spoilers outside the RoW board. I have moved this to the appropriate board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mraize’s master is Iyatil. Iyatil has her own master, whom Shallan assumes is Thaidakar. We don’t actually know that this is Thaidakar. Thaidakar is the ultimate master of the Ghostbloods. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine he's instead in like a team of sorts, he just happens to be at the top of the food chain for Mraize's particular position. There is no way Kelsier is allowing anyone to be on equal footing with him. There may be regional leaders under him, but Kell is 100% in charge. His personality won’t allow it to be otherwise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My interpretation of that WoB is that ‘Thaidakar’ literally means ‘a leader’. It’s a title, not a name. Just like ‘Mraize’. It’s a rank or title within the Ghostbloods. Maybe ‘Sovereign’ or ‘Survivor’ phonetically sounds like ‘Thaidakar’ in Scadrian. (Scadrianesse?) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Survivor and Thaidakar do have the same number of syllables. It amuses me to imagine that Kell’s penchant for bestowing nicknames has become a Ghostblood by-law, and that’s why none of them use their actual names.

There’s that word ‘willing’ ;P I have toyed with this identification of Thaidakar for a couple of books now, and can’t say the so-called reveal is very satisfying. It sounds a lot like when my wife was reading WoA and asked me directly if (Well of Ascension spoiler) Spoiler The kandra was the spy, and my face told her everything she wanted to know <pulls hair>. Honey, if you don’t want to get spoiled don’t ask so many questions! I guess that’s the risk of coming on here, isn’t it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
