Hoid17th he/him Posted May 24, 2021 Posted May 24, 2021 Will Yalb meet Shallan again? If so, will this introduce the now Dawnshard infused Rysn to the Knights Radiant and Dalinar? Since Dalinar is a Bondsmith, would it be possible for him to Connect with the Dawnshard somehow? What would happen if they did Connect? Could they, combined, defeat Odium? I personally don't think so, but who knows what the Shard is capable of. 1
+Lewis Nethur He/Him Posted July 16, 2021 Posted July 16, 2021 1. Will Yalb meet Shallan again? Yes, definitely, their meeting will serve to highlight how Shallan has both grown and changed from the early chapters. 2. Will Dalinar meet Rysn? Yeah, probably after she reports back to Navani after the expedition. He'll probably sense that something is weird about her but he'll have no frame of reference by which to unravel the mystery, so a mystery it shall remain...at first! 3. Could Dalinar steal the Dawnshard? Well that got dark fast...Not unless someone teaches him more about his powers? I'm thinking that his Oaths to the stormfather are (probably) too robust to allow this kind of thing unless the person who's Connection he was messing with asked him to do it or he was honestly trying to save their life and had no choice but to act unilaterally to do so. 4. What would happen if 3 happened? Wow...no guesses here. What even is a Dawnshard? A Command? The power and will to enact Change? What does that even mean?

Based on the description we get of the things, it would supercharge the power of a guy who's already bonded to a demigod Splinter of Honor that is also a fusion with the Cognitive Shadow of a former Vessel, with incredibly powerful abilities that include serious Realmantic manipulation. Combine those with one of the four Commands that were apparently involved in the creation of the Cosmere and... yeow. I mean, one reason the Sleepless were willing to entertain Rysn's bargain in the first place is that she can't really do anything with the 'Change' Dawnshard because she lacks access to any Invested Art. Giving Dalinar that sort of power, whatever it does, would be pretty much the exact thing that they were trying to prevent from happening in the first place. 2
Going_North_cal Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 If this does happen, and if Dalinar steals the Dawnshard, could the Dawnshard be used to Change Odium? In a way that neutralizes him? 2
