  1. But Vasher did wield nightblood half-drawn once, to save the daughter of a high-priest of one of the gods. It cut like a regular, fully drawn sword, if I remember correctly.
  2. Yo mama is so cool any parshendi that see her bond an awespren. Yo mama so scary Odium decided to throw earth out of the Cosmere instead of facing her wraith. Yo mama so old, Adonalsium used to worship her as the God Beyond before he created the Cosmere.
  3. Two parshendi having a Horneater drunken song duel during a highstorm. In Iri. Either the scariest thing ever, or more awesome than Lift
  4. Nice WoB. Does that mean that Honor didn't need to be honorable himself? That could explain why the heralds felt cheated by the oathpact.
  5. And the listener songs say that whatever shattered the plains wasn't of their gods.
  6. Yes, you are right about the carriage driver, but you must remember Shallan never really helped them. She just dhowed them some maps Amaram had, with the writing removed, and said Dalinar was interested in a madman. In the time she believed the information they had could be vital to stop the desolation from starting. Simply killing them when NOT killing them could save more lifes could very well be AGAINST the first oath, wich disincourages killing as a first resort.
  7. You must remember that while the ghostbloods are a bunch of amoral cutthroaths who employ assassins, we don't know them well enought to say they should just be killed. The only people we have seem they hunt are Jasnah, who was not above using assassins herself, and Amatam, who is, well, Amaram. Discovering more about them before fighting them would fit into life before death, and strenght before weakness doesn't forbid you from feeling justified fear. The only part if the first oath that could be against Shallan is Journey before Destination, wich is vague as hell. Plus, she was very careful to avoid giving them too much information, only giving then some maps and opening the path to Urithiru to save an army
  8. Not saying that reverse lashing is Adhesion, but we don't realy know if the surges of Adhesion and Gravitation are limited to the lashings.
  9. It is supected that she is the herald Shalash, since we see many destroyed images of her and there is the following death rattle: "I see a woman sit and scratch out her own eyes. Daughter of kings and winds, the vandal." Brandon also confirmed that Shallash is Jezrien's daughter.
  10. Book two has very high res artwork, but book one does disapoint.
  11. I don't even watch anime and I know SA couldn't be adapted to anything but anime. I guess it was intentional on Brandon's part.
  12. That isn't how it works, like, no. The surge of Adhesion has irs name because it main use is the full lashing, but it is actually the surge of air pressure. Giving a gravitatinal pull to an object is gravitation.
  13. Yes, unless there a way to turn everyone into a full metalborn, code morality into magic like in Roshar, or create a cheap and non-intrusive way to limit the metalic arts, like some sort of aluminum field, those with powers will be above those without.
  14. Plus, whatever he does when he is "riding the winds" and is followed by windspren may protect him from air resistence. I doubt the surge of adhesion is only useful for sticking things together, specialy for the windrunners
  15. Except after the killing rendered him insane he started hating the victims. And he always hated himself. Makes me wonder if Odium also hates himself.
  16. The problem is that we do NOT know what is going on hearthstone, so the most important par of Kaladins journey will probably be the riots at Kholinar, so unless Brandon just adds more complications along the way, Kaladins return to Hearthstone could be wrapped up in two Interludes, and the other two would serve as a nice setup for his plot at book four. The most relevant part of Kaladins journey now is meeting his father again, and unless he turns out to be secretely a Radiant, wich is somewhat possible, it could be finished quickly, be it in laghter or in tears. But if Szeth, whose story is only on the beggining and whose issues are completely unsolved, takes a minor role AGAIN, them you have an ectremely relevant character for the first five books just sitting there abandoned. And the same could be said of the Parshendi. The book in the middle of a series is one of the most dangerous since if you go too far you risk leaving to little for later books, and if you play safe it can end up boring. It is the best place to switch focus to equaly important characters that have been left in the shadow. My perfect division of chapters for book three would be 5/12 Urithiru, perhaps ftom the eyes of Adolin and Shallan, who have the most to lose, 4/12 Szeth and 3/12 Eshonai/fugitive parshendi, with Kalladin in the interludes.
  17. ^ ^ Also, you must know that Radiants also get some powers not connect to the surges, like the ability to turn those loyal to them into squires, giving them the ability to hold Stormlight. And each order has some special, unique ability: Lightweavers get their special memories, Windrunners get more squires, who may also be stronger than avarage Truthwatchers see the future Skybreakers apparently are able to discern between the innocent and guilty. Or are good at debating. The epigraph that talks of their ability is ambiguos. Nothing is know about the oher orders yet.
  18. Do we know that those in stormform can force it upon others? I remember those who refused where rounded up outside Narak by Eshonai to be killed befire they escaped. Or are talking about the Everstorm turning parshmen into voidbringers? Because parshmen don't have bonded spren, so it would be easier for voidspren to force a bond.
  19. As long as kaladin gives up some space for Szeth, the fugitive parshendi and Eshonai, if she survived the fall, them everything will probaly flow well. Also, am I the only one who loves Kaladin but hopes he stays in the interludes for the next book?
  20. It was originaly supposed to focus at least partialy on Szeth, given the possible titles Skybreaker or Stones Unhallowed, but Brandon seems to be considering some changes, since in more recent interviews he said that he is not fully sure.
  21. UPVOTE WAR! Who will win, the celebrated veteran, KOBOLD Or the endlessly resourceful upstart TWI? Discover at the next episode of Sanderson Memes, at 17th Shard! EDIT: By the Nightwatcher, Twi has already reached God Beyond and I only noticed now. Storm you, mobile version, hiding everyone's ranks.
  22. Odium is not realy hate itself, though. More of a god of hatred who hates everyone and wants to spread chaos an hatred.
