mmmm you are forgetting Stick.

A Sliver is a human intelligence who has held all or a very large portion of the power of a Shard and has since released it.

 

 

Dalinar should be one, then.

When they attack the palace:

Quote

“That’s going to be crimson to break,” Azure said. “We’ll fight for every inch.”

I knew immediately she is from Nalthis. I haven't caught her hair changing color but at that moment it was pretty clear it's Vivenna.

Although I asked this at an Oathbringer signing there is no OB spoiler here.

Could entirely different kinds of splinters talk to each other? Syl to Nighblood?

Brandon said yes.

After some drastic changes in my life I am slowly piecing together on who I see myself as, starting with my childhood which was... difficult. To say a certain quote in Oathbringer hit me like a brick is an understatement. Since I was already in Europe, flying to London for the signing event seemed like trivial, and so:

Quote

When I tried to make a single little stick change, it refused.

Emphasis in the book. Of course, we know that was no ordinary little stick...

Quote

The betrayal of spren has brought us here.
They gave their Surges to human heirs,
But not to those who know them most dear, before us.
'Tis no surprise we turned away
Unto the gods we spent our days
And to become their molding clay, they changed us. 

Wow, http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7905-roshar-origins/ guessed quite a bit of Oathbringer.

Szeth, and iirc the planned title for book 3 was "Stones Unhallowed" 

Also see chapter 118 Szeth pov:

 

Yes, I caught that reference too!

https://coppermind.net/wiki/Category:Slivers then why is he missing from here? Too spoiler-y? 

Hrm, I don't have WoR at  hand, when she first cast that goblet.. she was only partially in Shadesmar? Then I remember wrong.

In previous books Shallan entered Shadesmar several times and returned without much ado (once Jasnah needed to rescue her because she didn't have enough Stormlight) yet in this book she can't just leave. How odd.

Dalinar , according to Rayse/Odium has Ascended. I guess he Ascended briefly like the Lord Ruler? But ... how? Honor has been Splintered already.

I am coming ... from Hungary. Despite I live in Canada. But temporarily I am in Hungary and I wanted to go to the signing two years ago in Portland but it's easier to go to London this time

I hope they won't run out of Oathbringers I will be there ... 4:30pm I guess?

Anyone knows where to get a stick t-shirt real quick?

It is not too much, no, but he may not recall the symbol you ask him for easily. Especially since it is Isaac Steward, his art director, who designs these things. 

Well, https://i2.wp.com/www.tor.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/oathbringer-endpaper1.png?w=900&type=vertical&ssl=1 we will have a hint if we can find another copy of Oathbringer nearby  and I think that won't be too hard.

If I only have one book (Oathbringer, obvs) is it too much to ask him to doodle a symbol... like the one of Bondsmiths? Is that too complicated? 

Yeah.. I was a little excited.  I will be there on Saturday.  I don't know if I will stay for the whole thing and record all the signing questions but I will be there. 

Sent you a PM!

One more thing came to mind regarding flaring: if they could they would've wanted to flare the metal since their goal is to get rid of it so yeah totally makes sense. One thing still bugs me: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071220122839AAzloNta cubic meter of steel is seven tons. Let's presume it's the same for atium but then how on earth did they move fifty tons of metal out of the Trustwarren to the battle scene?

Kaymyth, presumedly the atium burned eventually returned to the Pits so that's probably a lesser amount. Everyone thanks for the insight

So we know a slave in Pits of Hatsin were executed if they didn't bring up a geode a day. This presumedly went on for a thousand years. If only one slave was used a day you still have 365 000 geodes. This means that each of Team Elend needed to burn ~1000 of them and multiply it per the number of slaves working the Pits. This doesn't seem possible.
