Forget scholarship we have found the one weapon that can defeat Odium completely and utterly the witty weapon with Warbreaking wisdom.

When you stand outside on a misty day and expect the mist to shy away.

Renarin's behavior as perhaps a sign of traitorous intentions?

They cant be that scary Hoid was going to get them to do a musical number!!

There is a lot of evidence which says that you are in fact correct @Calderis.

I suppose he might indeed be devious enough and powerful enough to pull it off with that powered arm of his.Their underestimation of him will be their downfall!!!

While that true and they may overthink it I doubt any one at that table would be quite so willing to make any sort of deal with him.

Why was Silence's mother's shades behavior so different from the other that she dealt with?

You breathe in and expect the lights to go out.

Look at the family and tell me that maybe just maybe she is not just an awful ruler. Her husband is at best an incompetent and weak ruler. Her father in law made some very questionable choices which led to his assassination. Her uncle is a former blood soaked warlord. We do not know what if any counsel she has to fall back on other than her corrupt ardents lets face it she does not need to be possessed or the champion of a god of hatred she can simply be someone who is so far in over their heads that any decision that they make is the wrong one.

Well then I'll take an unresolved contradiction.

@The One Who Connects I do believe that you are correct. Elend's allomancy was totally untainted and as a result he could take control without any extra help Vin however was simply not that powerful by itself.

I'll settle for technically correct especially when being able to steal a breath through hemalurgy is merely theoretical at this point in time.

No, No DESTROY STICKS!!! is more like it.

These decisions were also a bit about pride I think. TLR was ...

Well if anyone could figure out how to make it work off world it would be Hoid. OR possibly Khriss if she could get her hands on it.

Her childhood would have been horrific her older siblings save perhaps Helaran were scarred and emotionally damaged. This may well have been a result of her mother's uncaring and dark behavior. It occurs to me now that perhaps with the death of her mother what we saw was a adoption of a new role on Lin's part. Let's examine what we know Lin was a loving father up until the time when his wife was killed by Shallan. He shouldered the blame and spared Shallan from then on he is abusive and is now possessed of a short temper. Could it be that maybe he adopted the persona of his dead wife as a coping mechanism for his grief if so then this would explain Shallan's breaking at such an early age.

Zinc and pewter that way my strength and brain power would be comparable.

If this were possible then the moon scepter becomes infinitely more important than ever before.

If I were a betting man I would say that...

my point was that if hoid had free access to the dor or forging or any other selish magic would have implication on the whole of the cosmere. It would add immeasurably to his power as well as potentially any one else's. That has massive implications.

Generally speaking her brothers were ill to begin with. it would not require a great deal to break a young child the trauma of that type of household might just be enough.

They may be less efficient, but they are still among the most dangerous objects in the entire cosmere.
