I think the dawnshard bestows a certain level of investiture innately. My reason for thinking this is that Rysn achieved at least a few levels of heightening after taking it on. The other supporting fact is that Hoid has reportedly been changed at the spiritual level from holding a dawnshard for a long time, which was compared to sevantism. Regarding Chiri Chiri eating breaths, has it been confirmed that it can eat breaths? Stormlight has been shown to leak out of humans because their vessel doesn't hold stormlight very well, breaths do not have this flaw and can be held indefinitely.

From my understanding White Sand is very early in the timeline.

I'm agreeing with the people thinking the spike is related to Kelsier staying in the physical realm.

Harmonium? Is that actually a thing? I like Sazedium better

I'm almost thinking that mistborn adventures would translate much better to a game format. Mostly based on the fact that a full mistborn would be too hard to get controls right. That and id find the wild West theme more suitable for gaming.

I thought from an overall perspective was Emperor's Soul, it covered a lot of great themes, had likeable characters, and had an interesting flow. It was missing the Brandon Avalanche at the end, but it probably would have been out of place. I think his best story in his books was that of the bridgemen. He captures the feeling of hopelessness and what this does to a person so well. They were about as low as I could imagine someone going and the way that Kal turns their perspective around was really neat.

Thanks for the clairification guys, I never considered shard colors. I guess based on that WOB two shards having the same color on different planets would not be a problem. After thinking about it more you are right, the horneater pool is probably cultivation and not honor. I misread the quote thinking Urithiru is was located in Alethela -- which is not true. I am now curious where Urithiru and honor's pool are exactly.

I'm not really sure. There have been 3 identified pools in the cosmere so far. Ruin and Preservation on Scaldrial and then the pool from Elantris. But all of those have been on their respective planets where their magic is found. Not sure if it is confirmed but from this quote it has been speculated that pools are related to worldhopping through shadesmar and the god described here is actually Hoid based on his conversation with Rock and his angular face desciption. Quote: Swimming in the emerald pools is death to outsiders," Sigzil said, "because you execute outsiders who touch them." "No, this is not true. Listen to story. Stop being boring." "They're just hot springs," Sigzil grumbled, but returned to his drink. Rock rolled his eyes. "On top, is water. Beneath, is not. Is something else. Water of life. The place of the gods. This thing is true. I have met a god myself." "A god like Syl?" Kaladin asked. "Or maybe a riverspren?" Those were somewhat rare, but supposedly able to speak at times in simple ways, like windspren. "No," Rock said. He leaned in, as if saying something conspiratorial. "I saw Lunu'anaki." "Uh great," Moash said. "Wonderful." "Lunu'anaki," Rock said, "is god of travel and mischief. Very powerful god. He came from depths of peak ocean, from realm of gods." "What did he look like?" Lopen asked, eyes wide. "Like person," Rock said. "Maybe Alethi, though skin was lighter. Very angular face. Handsome, perhaps. With white hair." Sigzil looked up sharply. "White hair?" "Yes," Rock said. "Not grey, like old man, but white- yes he is young man. He spoke with me on shore. Ha! Made mockery of my beard. Asked what year it was, by Horneater calendar. Thought my name was funny. Very powerful god."

It has been confirmed by that the pool in Rock's homeland contains a shardpool in it, and I always assumed that it was Honor's. West of Aletha is the Horneater peaks. Perhaps that is Honor's physical form?
