That would be awesome. It was so fun to see her thoughts and point of view and how she interacted in Edgedancer and I felt like we got a much more zoomed out view of her in Oathbringer, except with Dalinar and Szeth. Seeing interactions with more everyday stuff like in Edgedancer would be fun. I understand why there wasn't more (with everything that happened in the book, wow), but hopefully we'll see more in the next book. (Just three more years . . .)

Hey, I don't post much, but have been reading lately and thought I'd share my thoughts. I was kinda surprised at how much Odium seems to encompass, as well, but there's one point that I think is also important to consider. I think the letter in the Epigraphs in Words of Radiance is important to this. It says that Rayse "bears the weight of God's own divine hatred, separated from the virtues that gave it context." (WOR Hardback American Edition, p. 840). I would think that some of those virtues would include positive aspects of "Passion," like determination, or other positive emotions. Now maybe Rayse is influencing the absence of these virtues in his description of himself, or influencing what he shows Dalinar. When I first thought of this quote I thought it said that "he is God's own divine hatred" or something similar, but it doesn't. "He bears the weight of" that hatred leaves room for his shard to encompass other aspects as well, but I still think it's an important quote to consider in this. It will be interesting to see whether the name remains as Odium or changes to Passion or something similar (Out of Book of course, I think it's pretty well established in book that he's Odium (which may be direction in and of itself). I want to try and figure out where this might fit in, but it is getting kinda late.

Lift and everyone. I think some Shallan/Lift interaction could be fun.

"Favored of the winds" seems to apply specifically to Windrunners, or possibly Skybreakers, rather than any other group of Radiant. Do we have anywhere that the diagram itself uses this wording? Is the diagram specific enough to let him know that one of those orders would come first, or do we think "favored of the winds" would be something applied to all the groups of Radiants?

I've read pretty much all the books (except the Alcatraz books). . . I've read some of his short stories as well, but probably not everything. (Not entirely sure how many short stories there are out there, so I can't really say for sure).

Been reading on here for a long time. Finally decided I had to be able to join in the discussions, so I joined. Brandon's books are awesome.
