  1. Does not hitting shift return avoid linespacing?
  2. I hardly ever think about the technicalities of other peoples origin and I won't start here You and @Sedside are/were of course absolutely right in that biologically its not possible to decide about a possible pregnancy "right now" But in https://coppermind.net/wiki/Voidbinding its said: and So it might well be that Sja-anat knows something about a pending pregnancy.
  3. Un-so-whatted you. Apparently my understanding of the english language lacks in the proper use of "so what". My apologies
  4. So what? She will be taken into the spiritual realm with the Ghostbloods, get lost there, loose time and come back on day 9 but a subjective 1 year later with baby.
  5. Ooohh...totally forgot about the assumption of me from after reading Lost Metal ... context was a discussion around her brother Dlatil and her and something about Iyatil "running amok": My assumption was: This does not bode well for the Ghostbloods activity on Roshar and the realms
  6. Hmm ... that means ... non human Radiants can? So Rlain is up for a view point on day 2? Well well
  7. I couldn't agree more, especially with this important bit:
  8. Well, the Ghostbloods are mostly pictured as "evil", Felt felt (pun intended) always like a "good guy". Hard to reconcile that without seriously trying.
  9. Hmm ... I can't imagine Roshar being "not aware", "not particularly aware" sounds more reasonable, as e.g. the Iriali seem to be quite aware of their history and thus should be equally aware of the Cosmere the Unkalaki live with Cultivation's Perpendicularity right at their doorstep and even seeing themselves as its guardians
  10. So could Sja-anat go around and “corrupt” these as well?
  11. Ok, one thing I needed to be reminded of was that Oathgates are Fabrials and that the oathgate spren are actually bound to them. And the difference to e.g. a heating fabrial is, that here there are highspren bound. Which other examples of high spren fabrials do we actually have?
  12. If it turns out not to be so I vote for creating an alternate ending for SL arc 1 …
  13. Naa, that's the point I wanted to make: Is it really something about Connection, Identity or corruption? Or does she only TALK to them and convinces them? I mean, what the spren actually SAY, sounds just like Russian revolutionaries out of old Hollywood comedies, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninotchka
  14. Well ... its already hinted at in the text, that there are different point of views whether the oathgate sirens sprens are corrupted, enlightened or just educated by Sja-anat. Interestingly their statement co-aligns with a famous speech by Nelson Mandela What do you think?
  15. Interesting question, but I would say it should be asked in a different board/thread, as I don't see a connection to Wind and Truth.
  16. This take on the competition sounds suspiciously like a vote among their respective subjects, doesn't it?
  17. I do not think Shallan accesses BAM's location in the Spiritual Realm or BAM herself but she accesses other knowledge about BAM. BAM is cut-off, there is neither a connection nor Connection to entities in the other realms.
  18. I think the projected shard shield wall is a Kaladin thing, not a windrunner one.
  19. And coming back to agrabes' original post. One could interpret TwoSouls thoughts of Iyatil "running amok" as rejection of her leading style during the formation phase of the Ghostblood branch on Roshar. Follwing this thought one would be able connect 1. the differences of both branches and 2. the fact that Kelsier and TwoSouls DO know about her (and her acolyte Mraizes) problematic views.
  20. Don’t forget the 17th shard with Demoux etc
  21. Hmm, just finished reading and headed over here; bear with me if I repeat stuff discussed somewhere else. Concerning the timelines: don’t we have a perfect anchor with the following quote: I took it for granted, that this sister must be the masked Ghostblood from SLA. So far she did nothing which aligns with my understanding of “running amok”, so we can expect her to do this in SLA-5 IMHO. Added: Iyatil it is.
  22. Hmm, I am confused about Aux being Sigs "Knight". Reading this as "Knight Radiant" would reverse our initial naive understanding of their relation; it would make Sigzil take the "spren-role" in their relationship :-) (Funny enough, that is something I was expecting of Adolin and Maya, i.e. that Maya will take the Radiant-role and Adolin the Spren-role.)
  23. Exactly my thought as well :-)
  24. I ld say that is just his way to travel forward in time.
