Makes sense. Adolin is "interesting".

Which son, though? I can make a case for either of them. Adolin is idolizing his father (in my opinion), and his faith might break, and turn him against Dalinar. Renarin is kind of shady in that we don't seem to know much about him besides the fact that he can see the future, has a shardblade, and wants to be useful.

Who the crazy king, then? Taravangian. Sorry, I can never remember his name.

What I've always thought is that the Bondsmiths (all three of them) bond with the "spren" of each Shard. This might not make sense until you realize that there are 3 Bondsmiths total, 3 Shards on Roshar. Also, if Bondsmiths are supposed to unite people, why would there be 3 different Bondsmiths? Shouldn't there just be 1? This makes me wonder if Dalinar has bonded with Honor (Stormfather), maybe Tanavast with Cultivation (Nightwatcher), and an important bad guy (idk who though, maybe Eshonai or the scholar lady?) with Odium (Some unknown great spren).

I have been looking on the coppermind recently, and I noticed that two of the leaders we know of the Ghostbloods are WorldHoppers, so I was wondering if the Ghostbloods, or at least some of the leaders, could be part of the 17th Shard?
