  1. I want to read the them.....by monehz
  2. True, when is it out here? I've seen barely any coverage
  3. How I envy your residing in the homeland. Being in Australia hasw it's downsides
  4. Although Perpendicularities may just be the Cosmere-term for Shardpools, as I seem to recall the original term was coined by a questioner during an early interview. After all; Minor SA3 Jasnah excerpt spoilers
  5. Intelligence; Jasnah, Navani, Khriss and Kandra for infiltration Coordination; Kelsier and Steris (that is a hilarious combo) On ground Squad; Kaladin and Bridge 4 Negotiation; Raoden
  6. My idea is that the sphere is a Dawnshard, capable of binding anything, either voidish or mortal, and the reason for it's appearance is but cause it imprisons one of the Unmqwde
  7. I've given up with on theorising this mystery, I'm waiting tfor the lost metal
  8. Or that whoever gave Helaran the blade 'made' him give it back and then they gave it to another Veden
  9. The hype is beyond nebulous. I'm going to be fanboying from long before it starts to long after it vfinishes. I wonder what the end scene is going to be
  10. Y'all seem to assume that it was Helaran that Kaladin actually killed that day (we didn't see the guy's face, nor have we had actual confirmation, only extrapolations simply because the guy was red-haired and Veden)
  11. Aye, Sel is the odd one as I go between Selian and Selish
  12. My fave rendition is David Tennant's and Catherine Tate's Comic Relief scene from a few years ago (2007 I think), where Catherine just regales 130 so perfectly. I really wanted to see them perform in Much Ado or Twelfth night, whichever it was so long ago, they're like my fave actors in this regard
  13. Midsummer's, Much Ado, Twelfth Night, Othello Really need to read Taming of the Shrew and Tempest But I'm more Sonnet fan - 30 and 130 are my jam
  14. I just hope amazon UK decides to be nice so I can buy it
  15. Another clarification request; once a spike has an ability imprinted on it, it can only pierce the body in a certain bind point(s) to actually grant said ability, or can it be placed in any bind point/just anywhere through the body?
  16. I'd read that, it sounds fascinating
  17. I posted way back when but that was a load of waffle. I don't follow any particular belief system but I do believe in concepts and ideals. That's why I like Brandon's work so much; so much to muse over and consider philosophically.
  18. Is it possible for any sentient Cosmere species to Ascend to Vesselhood?
  19. Well...when people like to curse, Alliteration is fun. I think in either AoL or SoS Wax or Marasi says "Preservation's Wings" as a curse (I still have no idea why)
  20. The Room series by Fireproof games. Fun spin on the escape genre with excellent graphics, amazing score and a chilling Gothic horror-esque vibe
  21. Also Hulk rights are still technically owned by universal I think.
  22. After rewatching Cap 2, my hype is cranked way past 11, squee
  23. We have to factor in a few points; Firstly, The Wyrn at the time of Elantris is most likely not the same (presumably) Wyrn that might be around in Era 2 Scadrial so depending how events play out in Elantris sequels, the ethos of the Derethi may have changed somewhat. Secondly, this decision to remove life on Scadrial may simply be the desire for expansion/colonisation, so if you can't do a subtle takeover and a hostile takeover is, I'd argue, practically unviable, then your only option left is to remove the problem (as to how, anyone's guess). Thirdly, the Intent of a Shard encompasses all aspects of it's Ideal, and can take actions contrary to the Intent if the end result is achieving the Intent to it's fullest. So you could argue that if you can't have Dominion/control over an enemy, then you could display a different kind of Dominion (I.e show/display of strength) and completely and utterly destroy them. I'm more in line with Pathfinder's view but i'd also argue that whoever is in charge of these fakeless would have exhausted all other options of subjugation before moving to this decision
