Fulminato

in WotK after he spoke the second ideal there some hint to the starting squire bond The bridgemen gathered around Teft, amazed. His wounded arm didn’t seem to hurt as much as it should. “He’s like a part of the wind itself,” Drehy said. Chapter 68: ESHONAI

you are correct for timbre, but ico isn't the honorspren captain (his name is Notum), but the lightspren captain taking kal&co from the lighthouse.

no, he see the champion of odium (dalinar) scourge roashar For he saw the future. He saw his father in black armor, a plague upon the land. He saw the Blackthorn return, a terrible scourge with nine shadows. Odium’s champion. “He’s going to fall,” Renarin whispered. “He’s already fallen. He belongs to the enemy now. Dalinar Kholin … is no more.” Oathbringer Chapter 118. "The Weight of It All"

the oathgate warden spren still follow the rule of honor (the parent died, don't think the definition can fit for another one) strictly. the stormfather don't trust the human but honor before die command him to find a person how can be a bondsmith and give him the vision he crafted. even the moment dalinar swore the second oath the stormfather accept them with unwillingness. he accept only because honor demand it (even the dialogue syl-SF at the end of WoR lying on the same line) "the almighty demanded it to me. I could no more disobey than i could refuse to blow the winds." (WoR chapter 89 "the four") "I was given this leave: to choose those who would best be served by the visions. He paused, then grudgingly continued. To choose a Bondsmith." (Oathbringer Chapter 28 "another option") the immortal word are the same since the time ishar created the KR.

the skybreaker call the aspirants squire 'hopefuls' (chapter 90 'reborn')

this make tukks the first dead worldhopper on roshar The Parshendi looked eager, angry, deadly. They wanted blood. They would cut into the bridgemen and rip them apart, then drop the bridge—and their corpses—into the void beneath. It’s happening again, Kaladin thought, dazed and overwhelmed. He found himself curling up, drained and shaken. I can’t get to them. They’ll die. Right in front of me. Tukks. Dead. Nelda. Dead. Goshel. Dead. Dallet. Cenn. Maps. Dunny. Dead. Dead. Dead …Tien. Dead. Chapter 67: WORDS

Kaladin flew across the churning ocean. Dalinar had been able to summon the strength to overcharge him with Stormlight, though it was obviously exhausting to do so. Chapter 122

1) a enough cracked soul and connection can allow the same interaction 2) you remember wrong 3)but a spren can bond only one man, if the sibling had bonded nohadon all the time, he was the third bondsmith for millenia, no one noted? no record of him? i find this realy strange (strange, not impossibile)

yes you should die, but i find difficult call him 'dead'. and my question isn't retorical one. we know hoid had some ability to hide from shard, a 'normal' cognitive shadow can go hidden from a shard for some millenia?

and in the end of the book No. It had somehow struck only the book. Burned pages fluttered around him, singed and smoldering. It had been blasted right from his hands. Odium shook his head. “The words of a man long dead, long failed.” Overhead, the sun finally passed behind the clouds of the storm, and all fell into darkness. Slowly, the flames of the burning pages went out. how can a shard don't know if a men is truly death o ahd been made a cognitive shadow?

and if they come from another source? the sleepless are around from the start, but we don't know them before 'edgedancer', i think can be some other 'power player' in roshar can be unknow to us. for exaple in this situation in WotK we still don't know the source of the words. Life ended so quickly. The Shardbearer was destruction incarnate, the most powerful force on a battlefield. Once these weapons meant protecting, a voice inside of him whispered. The three bridges crashed to the ground a few feet away, [...] A parshman nurse had practically raised Dalinar. Life before death What was that voice? He glanced back across the chasm, toward where Sadeas (chapter 26: STILLNESS)

amaram was (no so) slowly changing in a amethyst golem, i don't know for sure, but if he was realy on control he shouldn't change so much. and yes, he was a total idiot, the scene whit jasnah in the tower is proof enough,

all the knight in the dalinar vision (feverstone keep, the keep is named in the urithiru gemstone archive) wear their armor, for windrunner (blue plate) mean for sure they swore the fourth oath, we don't know the stonewarden progression, but don't think is much different (so third/fourth oath)

from mistborn "ascending" can happen if one person hold an huge mount of investiture (not needed the full shard power, like the lord ruler in the well of the ascension). for the gemstone recharge, when in the same place an huge amount of investiture is gathered it start to bend the realm borders if you pile enough it can pierce the three realms, they usualy are called 'perpendicularity' and can be used to traver from/to the physical realm to/from shadesmar and “Have I ever asked how you renew these?” Dalinar held up the sphere, inspecting the ruby at the center. He’d seen these loose, and had always been surprised by how small they actually were. The glass made them look far larger. Honor’s power, during a storm, is concentrated in one place, the Stormfather said. It pierces all three realms and brings Physical, Cognitive, and Spiritual together momentarily in one. The gemstones, exposed to the wonder of the Spiritual Realm, are lit by the infinite power there. Oathbringer Chapter 64. "Binder of Gods"

Notum shook his head, then looked away, off into the distance. “I cannot answer. You should not have bonded Sylphrena, either way. She is too precious to the Stormfather.” “Regardless,” Kaladin said, “you’re about half a year too late. So you might as well accept it.” “Not too late. Killing you would free her—though it would be painful for her. There are other ways, at least until the Final Ideal is sworn.” Oathbringer Chapter 108 "Honor’s Path"

“I wish I could do more,” repeated the figure in gold. “You might be able to get him to choose a champion. He is bound by some rules. All of us are. A champion could work well for you, but it is not certain. WotK Chapter 75 "IN THE TOP ROOM" the rules all the shards must follow, even odium cannot ignore them.

for the tension between WR and SB the kaladin's struggle in WoR are revelatory. the two order had huge similarity, but some thin (but very depth) difference. the law need to be enforced to protect the society, and the society protect the people from itself. but not alwasy, sometime the law is clearly unfair or some borderline situation can arise. for the spren, we know no honospresn (syl aside) had broken the stormfather's order to don't bond any human [end of WoR], the cryptic send only one of them (pattern) at the first hint of the desolation, but the other? the truthwatcher sprens? the spren of the stoneward order? even some willshaper spren (light spren probably) can, in the two thousands years, try to chase some 'stupid deram' like ico daughter? and for the cultivation spren, in this time the circle send only wyndle (because the other spren are actively try to bond the human again), but don't think anyone had order the spren to stay back (like the honorspren), so in the past some proto-edgedancer should be appear.

i think the similarity run more deeper. “Passion,” Odium said. “There is great Passion here.” Venli felt cold. “I’ve prepared these men for decades,” Odium said. “Men who want nothing so much as something to break, to gain vengeance against the one who killed their highprince. Let the singers watch and learn. I’ve prepared a different army to fight for us today.” Oathbringer Chapter 115 "The Wrong Passion" decades, long before the battle in the shattered plain, Odium had shape the highprince seades and his army and throw them against dalinar after the death of gavilar.

timbre is a radiant spren (she talk to her of the death the recreance bring to his people), the only radiant spren we don't know the 'shape' (in the real world) are the spren of the order of stoneward, willshaper, dustbringer, for the skybreaker spren (high spren) we don't had any real description, but that order is the only order to don't abandon their oath (so no high spren dead for the recreance). timbre don't fit the 'dustbringer' behavior (they like break thing to know what they had inside, pattern say), so stoneward or willshaper, and eshonai will fit much better in the second (she was a explorer in the core).

He read them out loud. “You have agreed to a battle of champions. You must withdraw to prevent this contest from occurring, and so must not meet with Dalinar Kholin again. Otherwise, he can force you to fight. This means you must let your agents do your work. You need me.” Oathbringer Chapter 122 "A Debt Repaid" i find this too perfect, for write that sentence you need to know Dalinar became the bondsmith Dalinar follow the path of contested champion the odium's champion will be Dalinar Dalinar refuse the odium's offer Odium will poke around the diagram Odium don't have a plan B how a man, even one at his highest intelligence, can put all thing together? this remember me the 'hero of ages' prophecies. in the end they find exact resolution. but the prophecies was crafted by a shard, the death rattle had the same accuracy, but a unmade make them (probably) using the dying soul to glimpse the future in the spiritual realm. no common man should had made so perfect phrase for the aftermath of the thaylen city's battle. I think cultivation had 'shaped' the diagram narrative to in the end defeat odium.

but Mr. T during the confrontation whit odium read a sentece from the diagram itself. up to date the diagram had some resemblance of the ancient greek oracles, a truth spoke in riddle needed to be interpreted. the diagram is correct (at least some part of it) and point to 'join' odium after he try and fail to make dalinar his champion. and I said find the day of genius and stupidity to much convenient, after Mr. T come to urithiru he needed a very smat day to 're-analyze' the diagram e come to the plan to undermine dalinar and take his place at the head of the colation. (place he can obtain because king of jah keved, one the country how weather better the new storm, kingdom gained by the diagram scheme), and in WoR the day he go to the destroyed vedenar and meet szeth cannot be too stupid, even the day the shin try to 'kill' Mr T. he show a good intellectual skill. the crucial days he had alwasy the 'right' intelligence for the task. and i find this realy too suspiciously.

the sketch was made after navani in the vision of aharietiam bugged a knigth on the 'progression' fabrial she carries. She pulled him close. “That fabrial is wonderful, Dalinar. It’s like a Soulcaster.” “In what way?” “In that I have no idea how it works! I think … I think something is wrong with the way we’ve been viewing the ancient fabrials.” He looked to her, and she shook her head. “I can’t explain yet.” oathbringer chapter 38 "broken people" i suppose navani had gain some insight for create a fabrial mimic the surge, gravitation in this case, like soulcaster, oathgate or regrowth

the first 'batch' of radiant was made of ten-ish man and woman, syl was the only honorspren foolish enough to disobey to the stormfather order and go to bond the most windrunner-aligned person on all roshar after the enemy return and the first radiant show the ability to life whit the oath some had started to bond someone else (for the moment only two people, teft and lopen) adolin is a honourable person for sure, but he is the best in all roshar to bond one of the only spren had the courage to seek human again? after the genocide of the recreance? hardly. brokness isn't the only requisite for bonding a spren, you attract a spren with your emotion and act, the proto-radiant must show the correct attitude for the spren. but now he know the truth of the blade, the killed spren, he see her in the shademar trip. the mere knowledge can be the spark to start a thing before impossible. how many shardbear had hear the name of the blade from the spren itself? how many had, even one time, summon the blade whit less of ten heartbeat? i think the reply is none in 2 thousand years. if adolin succeded in the reviving of maya he had make something more exceptional to bond a spren.

it's pure guessing but, ten order, ten book, ten character flashback kaladin, shallan, dalinar - [szeth - eshonai] | [ renarin - jasnah - lift - ash - taln] i know, the can be wrong and/or deception (after WotK navani was in the place of eshonai), but i alwasy find strange to see ash in the list, we had alredy a main lightweaver, taln is the herald abandoned, returning to roshar broken by 4 and half thousands years of torture. but why ash of any other herald? we se nale often 'on the screen' and he recover his (honor)blade, ishar is the founder of the oathpact and the man how convince the other to abandon their blades. jezrien is the king of the herald (ok we know now why he cannot be around anymore). Ash is only a vandal, (for guilty, they abandon taln, she feel don't deserve adoration)

Liss sell the shin before meet jasnah. but she see the assassin in the moment of the death of her father
