The Honor Spren

I think so too, but there is another possibility. From what I've been told, there are 3 "God Spren". Stormfather, The Nightwatcher, and Cusicesh, the Protecter (the very large spren in Axies' POV). These three sound like they have managed to retain their sentience after the Final Desolation. I may be wrong and please (nicely) correct me if I am, but it I think it is one of the God Spren. The Stormfather is not as likely, because he seems against the return of the Radiants. The Nightwatcher is very possible, but we do not much about her personality. The last option, which is the one one I am most fond of, is Cusicesh. My proof, however, is very flimsy; it is described as looking longingly towards the origin. That is my opinion.

In my opinion the only thing that ISN'T debatable is that it is a spren speaking. "The age before the Heralds abandoned us and the Knights Radiant turned against US." (Emphasis added) From the feel of it, it also sounds like an older spren. . . If spren have age?

Here it is for reference: "I long for the days before the Last Desolation. The age before the Heralds abandoned us and the Knights Radiant turned against us. A time where there was still magic in the world and honor in the hearts of men. The world became ours, and we lost it. Nothing, it appears, is more challenging to the souls of men than victory itself. Or was that victory an illusion all along? Did our enemies realize that the harder they fought, the stronger we resisted? Perhaps they saw that the heat and the hammer made for a better grade of sword. But ignore the steel for long enough, and it begins to rust away. There are four whom we watch. The first is the surgeon, forced to put aside healing, to become a soldier in the most brutal war of our time. The second is the assassin, a murderer who weeps as he kills. The third is the liar, a young women who wears a scholars mantle over the heart of a thief. The last is a highprince, a warlord whose eyes have been opened to the past and whose thirst for battle wanes. The world can change. Surgebinding and Shardweilding can return; the magic of the ancient days can become ours again. These four people are key. One of them may redeem us, And one of them will destroy us." It is most definatly a spren. I would guess it is the one in charge of sending these spren to bond with humans. (Which makes Storm Father unlikely, but still possible). Another thing to add concerning the "One of them may redeem us, And one of them will destroy us." part. I think the one that could redeem them is Dalinar, and the one that will destroy them. . . One of the other three, still can't decide who. Thoughts?

I am about to dive into some fairly baseless speculation, but humor me. What if shardplate works differently when you are bonded to a live spren? I mean, remember how in Dalinar's vision he saw a radiant use regrowth on him WHILE SHE WAS WEARING SHARDPLATE. She could also just dismiss the helmet instead of taking it off (or somthing like that). One other thing was those strange glowing glyphs. Just thought I should throw those things out there.

*gasp* You don't say?

Are you kidding people? Dalinar makes SO much more sense than Szeth or Eshonai. He is way more of a central character.

I'll be honest here: I don't really care about past Szeth. I care about NOW Szeth. I really REALLY want to see what goes on between him and Nightblood!!!!!!!!! Also, NEED more of Lift!!!!!

My dislike of Odium just went up 5 levels. -.-

Yep, sing it in my head when I see it. Every time.

The Kane Chronicles are by Rick Riordan. Never actually read them, but he wrote Percy Jackson, and Percy Jackson is cool.

Thank you!

Looking at the beginning of this topic when: How long have you been here? You should have known better than to ask people on the 17TH SHARD to let a theory die. Oh, and kaellok I'm sorry about that down vote to your post above. Meant to upvote it, but the precision on my iPod is really bad and I can't undo it. Sorry

I have to admit, I don't really care what happens to Laral, I just want to know what DOES happen. I don't think Brandon would leave that just dangling, and you never get find out what became of her. I DO like the idea of Kaladin saving Roshone, after all he had done to him, just because that's the right thing to do. I like that idea a lot. Even if that doesn't happen, there has to be some sort of confrontation with the City Lord(s) though. Edit: Thank you for all these theories guys!

Oh, and another question I forgot. 7. When in the Cosmere chronology is Sixth of Dusk and Shadows for Silence?

I still can't imagine Rysn with long, white eyebrows. Just too strange. . .

Do you think he is making more atium with the stuff, and that's what The Lost Metal is about?

Do you think he is making more atium with the stuff, and that's what The Lost Metal is about?

What do you think will happen when Kaladin goes back home? I have a few ideas about what will happen, but I don't have any reason for them, other than my own fantasizing. • his parent(s) could be dead. That's just the way his life goes, and I wouldn't be surprised if it happened, only devastated • Some sort of combination of these events: Roshone is dead of old age, Laral is pregnant with his child, or Laral is bonded to a spren. • If his parents are alive, will they be happy or disappointed in him? Probably happy, they are parents after all. Comment below with your theories! I don't really care how far fetched they are, I just want to hear them! Thank you!

Woah, that makes A LOT of sense. Would it be his life retold in binary?

We will probably learn more about this in Bands of Mourning.

WAT. EES HAPNIENG HEAR?? Tis mayks az mooch scenes az speeleng ay sentans rong un porpoise.

Does anyone else think that if someone is going to stop Odium, it will be harmony(a.k.a. Sazed)?

I saw a topic like this on The Stormlight Archives forum and thought, "Hey! We should do this for Alcatraz, because even though Stormlight is Brandon's best work, Alcatraz is the funniest! Think how many people would wet their pants and spit all over them self from laughing!" (As you can tell I'm not a very nice person. I think I'll be a novelist someday) ANYWAY, please comment below with your favorite funny scenes from Alcatraz! I'll try not to take them all, so I'm restricting myself to only 5 *sigh* it's so hard to be me. 1. This reference: "I think I'll go for a walk. . . ." Grandpa Smedry said cheerfully. "Wasing not of wasing is," Quentin added. 2. New words! Someone! Quick! Add it to the dictionary! Definition of "crapaflapnasti": "Adj. Used to describe an item that is as disgusting as fish sticks." (Note: This word can only be used to describe fish sticks themselves, as nothing had yet been found that is equally crapaflapnasti. Though the unclean, moldy, cluttered space under Brandon Sanderson's bed comes close. 3. In which we learn how awesomish and manlyish Alcatraz is. I glanced to the side, then jumped as I saw an enormous reptile crawling along the sides of the buildings towards us. Like a spider crawling along the front of a fence. "Dragon!" I yelled, pointing. "Brilliant observation, Smedry," Bastille noted from beside me. I was too alarmed to make an amazing comeback. Fortunately, I'm the author of this book, so I can re-write history as I feel necessary. Let's try that again. Ahem. I glanced to the side, whereupon I noticed a dangerous scaly lizard slithering its way along the sides of the buildings, obviously bent on devouring us all. "Behold!" I bellowed. "'Tis a foul beast of the nether-held. Stand behind me and I shall slay it!" "Oh Alcatraz," Bastille breathed. "Thou art awesomish and manlyish." "Lo, let it be such, I said. 4. Violence is not the best solution to problems. For instance, the next time you get attacked by a group of angry ninjas, one solution would be to kick the lead ninja, steal his katana, and proceed to slay the rest of the group in an awesome display of authorial fury. While this might be fulfilling--and a little bit fun--it would also be rather messy, and would earn you the ire of an entire ninja clan. They'd send assassins after you for the rest of your life. (Having to fight off a ninja in the middle of a date can be quite embarrassing.) So instead of fighting, you could bribe the ninjas with some soy sauce, and then send them to attack your younger siblings instead. That way you can get rid of some unwanted soy sauce. See how easy it is to avoid violence? 5. (After telling you to act out this book) We burst out of the room into a hallway, where I hopped up and down on one foot three times, then punched myself (softly) in the forehead. After that we flapped our arms like chickens. Then we twirled around, smacking our brother if he happened to be near. Then we stuck our feet in our mouths before dumping pudding on our heads while singing "Hambo the Great" in Dutch. There is NO MORE NUDITY. You can proceed with acting out the rest of this chapter if you want. I stood on my head while singing "The Star Spangled Banner" and juggling live trout with my feet. Oh, wait. I hope you weren't wearing only a Mokian wrap like me. Sorry about that. Again, please comment below with your favorite funny Alcatraz scenes! Thank you!

Wow, yeah okay. The only one I understood was Act V Scene lll, because they were quoting Hamlet.

Storm it, my Internet router blocks the pictures. Humph.
