  1. My idea of making storing heat easier is a sauna And the weight idea would work - after all you're storing your weight - but I doubt it would be noticeable.
  2. Oversleep

    Spooks age

    Probably Allomantic pewter. (Maybe some Allomantic cadmium also contributed) But, well, considering he did write a book about Hemalurgy... more options are possible.
  3. No. Maybe. I don't know, that was your idea to waste 50 000 Breaths on a goat ;P No. You need to have intent to Awaken and goat would not have such instinct. However, if Breaths made it sapient...
  4. What is so weird about boxings?
  5. Perhaps it's the nature of a deal Shards have made? I mean, it stands to reason that there is one, since Dalinar can release Odium from it and let him go from Roshar. Honor & Cultivaiton probably have an agreement with Odium concerning Fused and Heralds. It probably has conditions like that Odium must release Heralds from Braize to start a Desolation, that Heralds must come back, otherwise a new one will start, things like this. Oathpact is the agreement between Honor and Heralds. They swore to seal back the Fused to the Braize, but if the bend under torture then Fused can return... Wait, something isn't right. Honor did not anticipate that Heralds could bend their word and let Fused come back. Then why are there additional conditions? Perhaps it's an addendum made after Heralds broke for the first time?
  6. At this point I start to wonder whether I will ever stop doing this mistake. I am speaking this language decently for like... 6-7 years now? Ugh.
  7. Except we still don't know how exactly that works. Some theories include harmonium in this.
  8. Oooh. It's nice to know something like this exists. I hope that when Palanaeum goes open source you'll make your own counterpart to Arcanum (I've poked a bit around reading WoJs but I only read up to White Night so I decided to avoid spoiling myself)
  9. I'm sorry, but it seems your work was completely unnecessary: https://coppermind.net/wiki/Words_of_Radiance/Epigraphs
  10. @Silverblade5 do you plan on updating the archives in the first posts? Just curious.
  11. It was explained in the book itself. Chapter 64 epigraph:
  12. Circular logic. By definition, light cannot go faster than itself. If speed of light is locally greater than speed of light in vacuum it does not mean that light is faster than itself.
  13. Yes, it has been asked before: Praise the Arcanum!
  14. For reference: if you take all the epigraphs from the same drawer, you get this: Check here for more about Gem Archive.
  15. Do you perhaps know whether they're splitting Oathbringer or translating it whole?
  16. I love how you draw Surgebinders in action.
  17. Man, annotations contain enough info for another half of a book.
  18. That's false. You can burn spikes. Actually, he wouldn't burn his bracers - no point in that - he'd rather store in a separate bead, swallow it and Compound it. And, as @Shqueeves said, he is not Compounding constantly, he's only tapping constantly.
  19. Yeah, he could. Duraluminum first and foremost burns your allomantic reserves, if you don't consider something to be viable, it won't burn: see Vin and her earring or Marsh and his spikes.
  20. Well. There is an English summary on Coppermind: https://coppermind.net/wiki/The_Way_of_Kings/Summary https://coppermind.net/wiki/Words_of_Radiance/Summary I don't know if there is a Spanish one though. (BTW, last I heard Brandon said "Spanish and Polish editions should be coming soon—they’ve been translating at a furious pace." - and first half of Polish translation is out already, how is the Spanish coming along?)
  21. Isn't it in March?
  22. Uhh... bad news. So, the story is that I dropped my laptop which damaged the hard drive. I got it replaced, which costed like 350 pln. The laptop was bought for 800 pln. (technically, 1 pln = 0.3 usd. For reference, Way of Kings costs 60 pln) Now, the first assessment of the damaged drive is 1900 pln for recovering everything and at least 700 pln for recovering selected files (but price will go up depending on how much files etc). That's a lot. A lot. I want my files back... but now I start to wonder, is it worth it? My games and music are taken care of by Steam and Spotify, so I lost nothing there. My bookmarks in Firefox would be lost (I wish I had them synchro'd or whatever), all my writing notes (not a lot of them, but I'd miss them) and everything else I had. I don't know what to do And on top of that I got to pay 600pln to uni for courses, since technically I'm not doing them the first time.
  23. Actually, that's wrong. Vasher managed to do it, but by no means it's simple and straightforward like a normal person worldhopping: (emphasis mine) So I would hesitate to use Vasher as baseline of what's possible.
  24. This term refers to Feruchemy. Nightblood is its own, separate thing.
