Cosmere is constantly spelled with a lowercase in the Kindle ebook. I'm fairly certain that locations are generally considered to be proper nouns.

The magic system on Nalthis involves manipulating investiture using commands. A single command using a massive amount of investiture was used to create Nightblood. Is Edgil attempting to use Returned in order to create new Dawnshards, or new manifestations of Dawnshards?

This is Taln before he breaks When Gavilar has finally united all the Highprinces When Gavilar dies like a noob When Dalinar gets personally involved as the Blackthorn When you think about it, the Alethi are the lowlander versions of the Caroleans. And the Vedens are the Dannish.

I'd say he was. For one thing, it wasn't for the purpose of combat, which I consider to be the operating spirit of the oath. For another, he didn't lose his bond, so it couldn't have been that bad.

It's been stated that El's title was given to a human. The only human I know of who received a title from the Fused was Moash. Moash's title was Vyre. Was El's original tile Vyre?

Both are secretive orgainizations headed by . Could both be local chapters of the same organization?

This was running through my head during the ending for the Tower arc

So, Szeth has sworn the third Ideal. I wonder what his Highspren thinks of Nightblood.

In the most recent chapter, Rlain was talking about how humans cannot sing the "pure notes of Roshar". This seems to imply knowing intrinsically where "pure" would be. Do the Listeners and Singers have perfect pitch?

After the game, the king and the pawn both go in the same box "Most people say that war is hell, but it's not true. War is war, and Hell is hell. You ask yourself, which one is worse? To hell, only the sinners go to suffer, there are no innocent bystanders. But in war, the innocents, women and children are the ones who truly suffer"

The Swedish version of "A Lifetime in War" might just be one of the most beautiful things I've recently listened to, and every should listen to it immediately

"As your highmarshal and superior officer, I forbid you to bond with anyone else until you attempt to work with Rlain" Kaladin like a boss! And Dalinar apparently knows of the God Beyond. Cool.

*Reads chapter* Oh no, they're getting PETA for spren! Almost just as bad as Ghostbloods

Someone though some eggs at my car last night. I have an idea who it was, but have no way to prove it. -

The Official Thread of Relationships
Silverblade5 replied to Curious Anamaximder's topic in General Discussion
All of my close relationships have always been with coworkers. This has led to all of them taking on a form of sibling relationship. I've been finding this increasingly annoying lately. -
For the price of $100 I'll be able to get a season pass for the unguided ski season at Silverton. This is a quarter of the price I'd pay later in the year, and comes with the option of a $34 heli drop. This place is basically lift served backcountry, and is one of the rawest skiing experiences out there. I am excited for next winter!

I'll leave this as a test post. My timezone is MST. My clock currently reads 7:22.

"Why is it considered more noble to kill 1000 men on a battlefield than to kill a dozen at dinner?" The life and freedom of everything he loved was hanging on his ability to do nothing. To the Senators, that much was just like another day at the office, but to the district attorney, it was terrifying.

In most modern countries, distinctions are drawn between law enforcement, prosecutors, and judges, with each role being filled by separate, dedicated personnel. Do you guys think less radical Skybreakers would draw similar lines? Would being a judge for instance, require having sworn the fourth oath, while anyone who's sworn the third can prosecute? What do you guys think?

So, as a basic counter argument. When I make a choice to do something, that choice is never made in isolation. It is made with the consequesnces of previous choices behind me, and with multiple opportunity costs in front of me. Under the same set of circumstances, and with the same set of prior experiences, it is highly likely that I would make that same choice again. Given this, was there ever really a choice? Was that free will, or merely one thing being higher on a hierarchy of decisions than another?
