  1. No. I made it to be very difficult, so I may drop a hint if it takes too long for someone to get it right.
  2. Maybe it is part of it, but as far as we know she just uses her ability to touch spren to climb Wyndle.
  3. Wait, you mean Dalinar isn't always in a blue and silver uniform? I could swear he slept wearing a uniform with a cerimonial sword on his belt.
  4. For some reason Dalinar's height varies depending on who he is speaking to, from average Alethi height when speaking to Shallan to taller than Rock when speaking with Rlain.
  5. In Roshar eyes only seem to come in "almost black" and "gemstone light" varieties, so I guess people with intermediary colors just plain don't fit in the vorin social system, and if a number of them appeared the ardents would start a assembly to decide their position.
  6. Except if Kaladin could use Adhesion to decrease pressure and air resistence, or perhaps create favorable air flow, wich may be part of what he does when he is riding the winds with all the windspren. Also, I wonder if Adhesion works underwather, or in any gas that is not "air" as we see it.
  7. But then how does simetry work if different letters have different sounds in different parts of a word? For exemple: Ghoti ≠ Fish. English spelling is weird.
  8. So far as we know, Ruin couldn't splinter Preservation because their situation was unique, as being complete polar opposites. Maybe to splinter Preservation he would have to splinter himself, since their powers oppose one another automaticaly. Also, we don't really know how shard to shard combat works, aside from Ruin versus Preservation, wich is a unique case. Perhaps it varies so much from shard to shard that experience isn't of much use. Perhaps in three hundred years Sazed learned enough to be able to use his powers with mastery, and there is some cap about how much you can learn that makes his and Rayse's finesse with their powers very close. The only obvious weakness Harmony has is forcing its holder into non-intervention.
  9. Actually, if someone could fake laughter it would be Shallan. Not saying she WAS faking, of course, just nitpicking. EDIT damnation, accidentaly downvoted a post by Emerald101, can someone upvote to compensate?
  10. Honestly, the evolution of military uniforms through Roshar must be more confusing and contrived than the number of common aquaintances between the main characters.
  11. I have no idea if Pattern looks like black ink or if he looks like an pattern under the surface of things, but I will always see him as a black, ink-like, pattern flowing around over the surface of things
  12. Yes, I know, but I called one of the four items wine in the second last line. Not Szeth, althought I added that line just so people wouldn't think it was Szeth, since the rest fits so well
  13. Elsecallers seem to be willing to kill to prove a point, so they probaly believe ideas>people and probaly served as guardians of knowledge during desolations Stonewards valued determination above actually being right. Bondsmiths seek to mantain unity, even when it mean letting someone like Sadeas or Amaram get away with their crimes. Honestly, I am surprised they managed to coexist during a single desolation.
  14. It is not Szeth. Also, I am glad you liked, it was in the back of my head for quite a long time. Also, what is the connection between the oathstone and wine for drowning one's sorrows?
  15. I hold four things in my hands, bloodstained. The first is the light, that fills all with fear, For strenght and hate bring death, if untamed. The second is blacker than the night, It marks the bond and pact, out of sight. The third is the clean blade, the tool of the trade, By wich my hands, bloodstained, their mark they made The fourth is the lie, the sorrow, the price, The flowing emptyness that follows the dark. For all is lost, yet four things remain, the light, the pact, the blade, the wine. In my bloodstained hands, in mourning, in vice.
  16. The God King of Halladren should go somewhere close to TLR, and so should nightblood. And Hoid should be highter than that
  17. Almighty preserve us, if it does turn out to be Lift or Lopen or in any way focused on humor, I think I will have to pass. Sorry, I have nothing against these characters or Brandon's brand of humor, but for me it is not his stong point, and it is better in moderation.
  18. I wonder if an Atium spike counts as an splinter, since it is a fragment of power from a shard that broke of, but it is not "alive" in the way a spren is and it is mostly physical. I said spike because that would be the most obvious way to "bond" with a God Metal.
  19. Redin, the half-eye bastard of Highprince Valam, ordered by his own father to kill him, lost in a land destroyed by the greatest war of its time, a war that pales before the terrible destruction that will follow. May Honor aid him in his journey.
  20. Yes but he has white cristals growing from him. Althought, if we assume spren apparences are related to the orders gemstone, something I find unlikely, so how we deal with Ym's spren, wich looked like growing plants made of golden light?
  21. Rust and Ruins, I should start reading Brandon's non cosmere stuff
  22. After a quicky re-read of the WoK prologue I've come up with a new headcannon for why the parshendi killed Gavilar, how Venli discovered stormform and why Gavilar told the parshendi his plans. My idea is tha before telling the parshendi his plans, Gavilar was already doing research and experiments on how to bring the final desolation, perhaps because doing so he could force Odium to choose a champion and defeat him. Venli was Gavilar's contact with the parshendi, and he somehow managed to make her temporaly take a form of power, perhaps using the dark sphere to summon a voidspren. What he didn't know was that Venli liked being a voidbringer, and started manipulating him. So when he told the parshendi his plans he thought Venli had explained them he expected to summon Odium and defeat him, but Venli told them to just listen to him and pretend to agree, without asking questions, them kill him. The council, afraid of the return of their gods, agreed to kill him. When Szeth killed him, he sounded surprised that the parshendi sent him, and, probably guessing Venli's objectives, gave Szeth the black sphere, a portal to Braize, so Venli couldn't just call the Everstorm and Odium on her own. EDIT: Storms and ashes, that was long. And unreadable as hell. Well, that proves being able to read Stormlight Archive in a foreign language does not make you able to theorize in that language. Edit2: Sorry for weird typos, tipping on mobile device.
  23. Nin is more about law than morality, so I think he would rank it all under "killing a criminal without proper documentation". Plus, he doens't kill people because they are breaking the law, he just kills however he wants as long as the law allows it.
