I'm a elsecaller, and I've learned how to soulcast myself some weed

I think I predicted this somewhere. In my realmatics theory, I think it was.

Dragonsteel chapter(s)
Steeldancer replied to Steeldancer's topic in Sanderson Curiosities & Unpublished Works
I think the main character might be one. Admittedly, his name might have changed. -
Ok I'm probably going to ramble here but I feel like I'm on the verge of a breakthrough of understanding Spirit webs, so I'll just share my thoughts. Snapping is like a glowstick. It won't work until you break it. (Not too much, obviously, because then you get funky chemicals all over you). After it's glowing, it's more like a circuit. Burning a metal is like completing the circuit, drawing power from preservation to flow investiture through the Web. Intent is like a super powered Identity. When Adonalsium shattered, his identity shattered too, leaving pieces we now know as the Intents. These intents are part of a HUGE spirit web that is a Shard. A person commanding a shard is like a little spirit web in the center of the massive one, commanding it. The problem is the Shardic web will change the Vessels identity, because it is simply so much more powerful. Investiture extends and expands the spirit web. This is why some shards are able to see the future. They have enough investiture that they... expand their web forward, exploring the possibilities. This happens on a lesser extent when someone burns Atium. This also relates to Feruchemy; feruchemy stores the investiture from various parts of your spirit web (like, your weight) to be later tapped to make those strands thicker and stronger. Compounding would be like making those strands ridiculously thick. Feruchemy I think comes from a balance of passive investiture in your spirit web, between Preservation and Ruin, rather than Connection. Allomancy relies on how MUCH passive preservation investiture you have in your web. If you have more than a certain amount, you become a mistborn, able to complete a big circuit. Less than that, a misting, as you only have enough investiture to complete one "circuit." The more investiture in your spirit web, the stronger your "allomancy strands" are, and the more powerful of a mistborn/misting are you. Shades impose a new shape on a spirit web. Radiants join spirit webs with their spren, giving them the power to use surges. Elantrians have a strong connection to the land, which is why it is location dependent. I hope some of the ideas are coherent and maybe interesting. Provide feedback below

Im not counting Renarin. Hes in a closet.

Maybe the Kholins are playing a big game of Four Corners.

another one came out today. We now know what Dragonsteel is, leading to fascinating questions like: What would happen if a mistborn burned Dragonsteel? That would so be an instant RAFO LOL
-
hey. if youre struggling, there were 2 dragonsteel chapters released. I have a thread about it in Cosmere. Im currently coming up with all sorts of theories that wont be confirmed for 20 years.

The Good News Thread: I'm So Excited! And I Just Can't Hide It!
Steeldancer replied to traceria's topic in General Discussion
So jealous. Who needs sample chapters when you have the whole thing (no matter how bad it is) -
I'd be fine with doing it. I just never thought I'd be someone worth featuring. Lol.

Oh I thought you meant Sho Del. Basically my feeling is that I'm not emotionally invested in the Bridges. They feel... meh. -

I assume it is the same lightweaving, but I we know Hoid is human.
