Welcome to the Shard. Please consider an Intro Post to let us know what you have or have-not read (whichever list is shorter). Also, please consider checking out the Sharder FAQ for some useful forum info and tips. Non-sapient Tanavastium, KorAvastium, or Radiant Alloy - yes Sapient (living) versions of above - no (at least not with the current understanding and information) "Dead" spren - unlikely; and, if possible, would require extra steps / methods Tangential WoB

Yep - which is why I worded my first post the way that I did.
-
Brandon has refused (RAFOed) to clarify what "Anyone" means - and that reference is specifically about Atium vs E1Atium. It could mean: Literally any sapient in the Cosmere - there are many WoBs that contradict this interpretation It could mean Any Allomancer - that's the most common interpretation for E1Atium (not actual Atium) It could mean Any Scadrian - because multiple WoBs indicate that burning any Godmetal first requires a Connection to that Shard (all Scadrians have Connection to both Preservation and Ruin due to how the planet and inhabitants were created) Note:Lerasium is an exception because the side-effect of Lerasium is the create a Connection to Preservation for the person burning it and make them an Allomancer (Mistborn) Therefore: When dealing with non-Scadrian Godmetals; the individual needs to be an Allomancer to have the portion of Spiritweb that says " you can burn metal for access to investiture" and they need to have a connection to the Shard whose solid-investiture they are trying to burn. Hence "Hoid' in the WoB - he has Connection due to his Radiant Oaths and is a Mistborn because he burned Lerasium. Hope that helps

They would not be able to burn a Spren bead - because the spren is sapient and has their own Identity and spiritweb. WoBs: Now, if a mistborn got that piece of the Bondsmith Honorblade that Nightblood knocked off. . .

Question about concepts in Isles of the Emberdark
Treamayne replied to Ogeas's question in Cosmere Q&A
Welcome to the Shard. Please consider an Intro Post to let us know what you have or have-not read (whichever list is shorter). Also, please consider checking out the Sharder FAQ for some useful forum info and tips. Q&A is meant for questions with answers, theories go in the associated book/series/section forums (Cosmere discussion, Mistborn, Stormlight, etc.) It makes searching Q&A for common questions easier. Solemn seven is not a term. IED Ch 28: They were seven crewmembers around a table, with a solemn feeling permeating the meeting. Nine stars - IED Ch 28: We do not know what, if anything, nine stars means. It is not capitalized, so it is not referencing a Proper Noun. The implication is one star is fiery and violent, and Crow would be angry enough to equal nine of them - but it would not be the first time that Brandon hid foreshadowing in otherwise-normal description. Oath of the First - IED Ch 35: I am not certain if you have read Stormlight Archive (or how much of it) but this appears to reference Dawnshard Ch 6: What we do not know is if the Oath referenced is this one (to follow the First's leadership and laws) or if there will be a different, more specific Oath, in the future that this is referencing. Hope that helps.- 1 reply

Unlikely this is possible - mostly because Hoid wouldn't want to do this and doesn't have the mindset to do this. Also, Nomad's Oaths were very different from Hoid's. WoBs: Hope that helps

I never see anyone mention “Children of the Nameless”
Treamayne replied to Mystfall's topic in Other Stories
It's been discussed in the forums - but mostly when the story was new: Children of the Nameless release CotN Replacing Mana with Investiture CotN Questions CotN Sample Chapter But like many of the one-shot novellas (First Born, Perfect State, etc.) long time fans don't have much more to say so the topic doesn't get much discussion until/unless a new fan brings it up. It's not a bad story and there is no reason to not read it - but some of the worldbuilding may take adjustment for non-MtG players, because it is meant for people already familiar with MtG in general (thoguh not heavily so) and Innistrad in particular. Hope that helps- 1 reply

I guess the question would be how do you feel about reading the novellas while still reading a main novel? If you do not like the idea of setting Cytonic aside to read Sunreach and Evershore before going back to Cytonic, then the only change I would recommend is moving Defending Elysium to after Book 1. Sure, it's a prequel, but it's a prequel with spoilers for Skyward . . . (slightly more, non-spoiler) This is the reading order I suggest to my family and friends: And the reason is that the novellas and novels are concurrent and spoil each other. From a Chronology perspective: Defending Elysium (Prequel Novella - read before book 3) Skyward (Book 1) Starsight (Book 2) Sunreach (Novella 1) - Starts around Starsight Ch 39 Redawn (Novella 2) Evershore (Novella 3) - Ends around Cytonic Ch 25 Cytonic (Book 3) From a timing perspective (based on Book 3 - Cytonic): Interlude 1 is around the same time as Sunreach Novella Ch 11 Interlude 2 is Before Evershore Ch 2 Which means all of Redawn takes place between Interludes 1 and 2 Interlude 3 is after Evershore - but: There are things in Cytonic between interludes 3 and 4 that are spoiled if you read Evershore before Interlude 4 Hope that helps

Wit's jar? [Possible spoilers up to half way of Oathbringer]
Treamayne replied to TheToday's topic in Stormlight Archive
Not wrong. Good job. Thank you for the Intro Post and letting know what you have and have not read. Please consider checking out the Sharder FAQ for some useful forum info and tips - including tips on how to effectively search these forums (as above), as well as Coppermind and Arcanum. Hope you continue to enjoy your Cosmere journey -
Thank you for the Intro Post lettign us know what you have and have not yet read. Please consider checking out the Sharder FAQ for some general hints and tips for the forums and Coppermind/Arcanum. Well, considering that we already knew from Era 1 that the Mist was Lerasium in investiture Gaseous form - We also know since WoK that a Shardblade first appears as Gaseous Stormlight then undergoes Deposition to for the Shardblade. I would say that they do convert, we just do not yet know how a person can instigate the sublimation/deposition of PR Gaseous investiture from/to PR Solid investiture. WoBs: Hope that helps

I don't know of a download for Mythwalker - just the by-post on the website linked in Verified Locations . . . You can poke around Brandon's website - I may have missed a download location. Those that have an ePub made it themselves (please see Pimp My Aether for how some convert a word file to epub, add cover and formatting, etc.)

You realize it is not actually 10 years right?? That's old mis-information from somebody not understanding the difference between IRL time and the in-story Time-skip. State of the Sanderson: WaT was not in 2021, nor is he projecting 2034 for SA6 (Stormlight spoilers)
