Rhythm of Reviews: Venli and Flashbacks

My tinfoil theory is that Venli and a Bondsmith unshatter the plains. "Unite Them" meant the shattered plains themselves. 

My weird theory about the Singers’ betrayal of the spren is that it had to do with turning Ba-Ado-Mishram into an unmade. She’s obviously important to the spren, and she was a high princess of the voidbringers. Maybe she gave the singers forms of power not of Odium before she was unmade.

I really like this theory. Ba-Ado-Mishram seems to be central to a number of mysteries in the books and its implied that Cultivation accepted Venli's oath. This would fit well with the idea that Mishram's imprisonment and Venli's oath to free those unjustly imprisoned are linked by Cultivations motives and she plans to free the spren.

I think its implied though that Ba-Ado-Mishram has been a general for Odium since the desolations.

I like that, but I dunno if that fits the whole obsession with finding her whereabouts. My theory, which is much more tinfoil-y, is as follows:

Yelig-Nar can grant all surges. While it is unclear if it can grant Adhesion, Hessi seems to think that he could. Hessi (You may remember her from the Pre-Chapter blurbs) is a great scholar, so we'll go with what she thinks. 

As Raboniel said, Adhesion is a surge of Honor alone, so the Unmade (or at leas Yelig-Nar, but probably all of them) must have been close to honor before their unmaking.

This is further supported by Raboniel saying that she was attempting to Unmake the sibling. This makes it seem like the Unmade were originally spren of similar power.

All of this makes it seem like Bo-Ado-Mishram was similar to the Stormfather before her corruption.

Thank you for reading this rant.
