revised the link to the spoiler chapter transcripts to the new thread.

@Chaos please move my thread there...

I am offend!

Interesting, I have a lot of favourite scenes:- + Jasnah's prologue and shadesmarr entry at the start of WoR + Szeth's killing of a room full of people was ... from WoK + Taln's entry at the end of WoK + Kaladin's interactions with Hoid + Shallan's last scene with her father + Shallan's interaction with Taln + Shallan, Kaladin and Tyn's scenes + more... A lot of scenes I liked, although the 'I am a stick' scene has never rocked my boat.

I think tapatalk does custom apps for certain forums. Otherwise, just making the site tapatalk compliant can make it accessible on the tapatalk app

New interlude reading from Ad Astra added

Another thing though, I thought Dalinar had a particular person/servant watch over in Kohlinar. Yet, he didn't know much about the queen's excesses until he remarked upon strange stories of rioting from Kohlinar (towards the end of WoR).

You didn't enjoy Mistborn, did you? Vin = poor orphan girl Ellend = filthy rich baron's kind son BS sticks to the formula when it comes to romance!

Well, that bad boy trope is just the life trope. The intro to the splintercast episode 4 for edgedancer notes the following:-

Same here. But I doubt, that she'll arrive in Urithiru soon. She's a character for the next arc. I fail to see, how pity is good soil for romance to bloom on. You know mercy dates, caring for the injured, etc. I still call it the reverse snow white moment when Lift breathed (another way of a kiss) into Gawx bringing him back to life

I never thought you were serious on the thread given the entire thread is a banter. One of the OB interludes involves a romantic novel (which almost reminds me of Jak the Allomancer piece, with a love triangle and so forth). But it's fun to speculate. I dunno if depressed people can see romance even if someone slaps them around with a bunch of kisses. So, it practically has to be a strong influence to get Kaladin to have a look beyond his nose. Lift seems to flighty for me to consider for Kaladin. I am sticking with Gawx/Lift pairing coz Lift at least pities him somewhat. I think another one is Mraize and Shallan - just the mysterious bad boy vibe that some people are attracted to (and purple eyes).

At the start of WoR, I think there was some insinuation that Jasnah be paired up with Amaram, for political purposes (don't remember if it was Navani or Dalinar wanting it). However, Jasnah appeared indifferent (or not interested) to the idea. Anyways, BS is very short on romance. Mistborn is a classic example, Kelsier's group/his brother didn't show too many romantic inclinations. Shadows of Silence, etc didn't either. Hell, Sixth of dusk was practically Tarzan & Jane, but no overt expressions in that one! reckoners had some, but barely. Romance is just not his thing!

I think he contradicted canon by saying that! I refer to Moash's eyes from WoR!

I think in the Prologue, Kalak mentions seeing the fear in Jerizen's eyes. That combined with the drooling comment in edgedancer, that I suggest some sort of indecisiveness/cowardice.

I like this quote a lot. I am trying to wonder what each Herald's insanity ends up being? Jerizen - Nale referred to him as drooling (in a sense indecisive/cowardly)? Nale - cruelty Ishar - bad advice ? Shalash - obsessed with destroying her own statues faces

Argumentation... lol. Guys I am sure it can all be sorted very with more brevity and plain speaking!

Edgedancer... I'd not have to worry about my weight then. Just burn all the kilojoules by glowing.

Shalladin is my fav of so far. Just the banter they had while crossing the shattered plains was the best comic/romantic relief in the book. In fact I think romance is underplayed in Brandon's books. There is one scene where Pattern comes back to report to Shallan on Dalinar and Navani making interesting "noises" The only person I think is yin to Jasnah's yang is Lopen. Either that or she's a pseudo Elf character who personally doesn't like the idea of being someone's property - sort of implied from the discussion in WoK. Lift-Gawx appears like a good set up when Lift can get around to it (and if she grows up). They already had a magical pseudo kiss/breath to wake up cinderella scene I am concerned about the lack of romance instead. I think besides Vin in mistborn, we barely saw any romance. Even in Wax and Wayne, romance was limited, despite the number of female characters (although it was a bit improved in bands of mourning). BS has said that he writes each stormlight book like a trilogy... so I really hope we see more. I've never read a romance novel, but wouldn't mind more romantic/comedy relief from all the desolation talk.

Ok... perhaps I didn't extrapolate it that well. I think the key word is "the bridge". So, perhaps the bridge is like a permanent porthole between Roshar and Braize - which can lead to easy egress directly fron Braize to Roshar.

Umm... secret history mistborn spoiler re the body issue.

Maybe they are using perpendicularity to travel? Refer: Arcanum Unbounded, Mistborn: Secret History. The body thing seems apparent from a particular scene in Mistborn: Secret History. Perhaps a perpendicularity does not exist to build a bridge between Braize and Roshar? Which is what everyone is afraid of?

It's not been transcribed as I looked for signings around feb 2016. can someone please do this one?

Ingenious... maybe you should start getting into writing yourself...

Anyone have transcription for this dalinar flashback chapter? This is from State of Sanderson post.

Yes, I kept thinking about instructions as orders rather than thinking about instruction to mean training.
