    Don't we also have WoB that Shards don't tend to naturally give Investiture to people outside their purview? If they weren't from Nalthis, I doubt they'd have been made into Returned.

    That's not entirely true. He was able to catch a thread none of the other Skybreaker Squires saw and rule-lawyered his way out of a training exercise.

    I think it was probably something closer to what Ruin did to Preservation as opposed to what we think happened to Devotion and Dominion. Notice how in Secret History Leras becomes more and more distant and confused as the novella goes on. Honor is a more active agent in his binding than Preservation was in his; to the point that one of the gemstone recordings, I think, note that Honor is having mental breakdowns.

    More like profoundly stupid, advanced age, a complete disdain for getting any of the help he needed, and hoarding that eventually led to them burning their house down by means of trying to use a keurig in a poorly wired bathroom. I'd feel sorry too if the poor guy at least made an attempt to better his life. Forgive me if I've just deraled this thread completely by bringing up one of the worst possible examples for this topic.

    If you want the worst possible example of an autistic adult, look up Christian Weston Chandler. Actually, don't do that. Your sanity will thank you if you don't.

    Szeth doesn't seem to have a bond when he's killed. He might still not. Nale seems to be giving shards and other nasty things like Nightblood to people in order to help him hunt down surgebinders. Nale only brought Szeth back to life because he found his loyalty to the Shin's backwards moral code endearing. We have no reason to think that a surgebinder would even work with Nale after what he does to them.

    Yeah..., sorry about the placement of the thread. It's the first one I've tried starting here.

    This might be a pointless thread, but it's something that struck me as weird. The Coppermind and the Stormlight Archive refer to Ym as a likely Truthwatcher. Considering the fact that he gave children shoes in exchange for their stories. That seems to be more in line with the Edgedancers oath to "remember those who have been forgotten." I don't remember him doing anything that resembled casting illusions like you would expect with Lightweaving.

    I'm pretty sure he lends out both. The formal duels we see in WoR need both. You break 3 parts of the Plate and you win.

    Maybe he's using adhesion on each of his hands to get a better grip, and using stormlight enhanced strength and healing to not get his arms dislocated?

    Hero With a Thousand Faces By Joseph Campell. Its one of the definative works on comparative mythology.
