I was actually quite pleased with this series as a whole, even with this ending. It wasn't disappointing in the slightest. It was made very clear that there could be no show down between calamity and anyone / everyone. It has to be his decision. If BS had attempted to stretch that decision out any further, it would have been painfully boring. Adding larcener into the plot whilst trying to sort out prof was genius. It felt subtly obvious that he was more than a normal Epic. Through his character, I was able to form a picture of his inner struggle before the big, albeit short, revealand gain an understanding of his choice to leave. In his choice to leave, I feel that he did save someone, well, a lot of someones. Epics now have the choice to be good, bad, or something in the middle without an overpowering evil influence over them. Those who would have been killed eventually by those who chose instead to be good would likely be very pleased with calamitys choice to leave, if they knew the consequences of him staying.

I bow to your wisdom. Thank you for correcting me.

It's the fight between dalinar and eshonai at the end of WoK right before kaladin saves him. I think at the time he thought this, he was dazed from a head shot and was remembering one of his visions. I may be wrong though.

Couldn't he have stuck the boots of his shard plate to the ground, thus righting himself? Seems possible. I'm pretty sure that objects you are touching can remain stuck as kaladin would've been unable to climb the rocks as he stuck them. Just not sure that it applies something you're wearing, in particular something like shardplate that almost becomes a part of you when wearing it.

I imagine the burns were quite recent as stormlight would have cured them.
