  1. I assume this just means that a highprince can ask his artists to design his glyph into whatever shape he wants - from generation to generation they could adapt the glyphs to whatever shapes this prince thinks represents him. So in the case of the Kholins they make a royal and non-royal version.
  2. It won't be "tension" -- it'll be the Alethi word that means tension.
  3. Ooh, one more from WoK: "The stark black glyphpair read shesh lerel - Sheler's company".
  4. Argh, even worse: Amaram's glyphpair as described in WoK is: "a burgundy field blazoned with a dark green glyphpair shaped like a whitespine with tusks upraised. Merem and khakh, honor and determination." That doesn't even phonetically add up to "Amaram", really...
  5. I think this is definitely true; and it wouldn't even be as literal as "sadas" and "easae" - Sebarial's glyphpair is "sebes" and "laial"! Could be "sas" and something?
  6. Not sure if you've noticed, but the Kholin and Tanat sides are not EXACTLY identical. The recent hi-res images at http://brandonsanderson.com/books/the-stormlight-archive/words-of-radiance/stormlight-2-maps-and-illustrations/ make it clear that there are some differences on the two sides.
  7. Is there a good resource with images of all the glyphs from the books collected together?
