Theory: Honor Bound all Orders, Not just Bondsmiths.
Nesh replied to Frustration's topic in Stormlight Archive
I find it unlikely that such a thing could be predicted. What Ba-Ado-Mishram did was an anomaly, it had never been done before. So, it likely wasn't what happened to the Singers. We know there were no Deadeyes before the Recreance, and that the Spren chose to go along with it. How would a Truthwatcher guess what would happen when no one else had reason to. -
The Malwish were the Southerners they'd made contact with, and the others we know of don't seem likely to take well to the people of the North.
-
F-Duralumin and A-Zinc. A good combination for more diplomatic/manipulative people of all sorts. Seriously, Connection and emotion manipulation combined would likely have rather striking effects.
-
Appearently things with the Southerners aren't going well. Tensions are "at an all-time high."

Avast; Trite Speculation on Names, Refutations Welcome
Nesh replied to Olmund's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Their could be a number of reasons for that, but it is a fair point I don't have an immediate answer to. -
Avast; Trite Speculation on Names, Refutations Welcome
Nesh replied to Olmund's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Given that we know from WOBs that Koravellium and Tanavast were romantically involved in some fashion. Given the names, I assumed they were married, and that Avast was a surname. It could be that Tanavast's human name was corrupted over time, and he was actually named Tan Avast. -
The majority of fans probably aren't as clued in as Sharders are. So I tend to go toward the obvious because he's laid the clues out and the majority of readers will be surprised.

The Ghostbloods are definitely the ones recruiting Marasi. Kelsier's stated goal at the end of Secret History is to protect Scadrial. Just because the people recruiting her are off-worlders that doesn't mean they work for an off-world organization. If these people have Invested arts outside of Allomancy and Feruchemy, which it sounds like from the blurb, Kelsier probably brought them in to be an Outside Context Problem for any Scadrian opponents he has. I doubt we'll get too much about Roshar so as not to spoil SA5. The safe bet is an Autonomy Avatar.

Did the Highstorm and Everstorm ever clash again?
Nesh replied to Nesh's topic in Stormlight Archive
So, they have, there just weren't people around, so presumably in the ocean somewhere, thanks. -
Just a minor question: When the Highstorm and Everstorm clashed at the Battle of Narak it was uniquely devasting. I've been wondering if they ever clashed again after that. I know the Stormfather sped up the Highstorm at Narak and the storms travel in opposite directions. If we don't know that's fine. So, yeah if anyone knows if there is an answer and/or what the answer is I'd be glad to hear it.

Who will win the contest? Predicting the back half.
Nesh replied to Could Be Fire's topic in Stormlight Archive
Yeah, but the back half, There's still going to be conflict. So at best this is a band-aid. -
Who will win the contest? Predicting the back half.
Nesh replied to Could Be Fire's topic in Stormlight Archive
Well I assume the war will go on in any event. -

Nesh replied to Could Be Fire's topic in Stormlight Archive
Something I've been considering lately: What happens if the contest somehow ends in a draw? They only set conditions for what happens if either side wins. -
Quoting from the resonance article which is the mechanic to which you are referring: With the sheer amount of powers Kell might have at this point, any resonance would likely be negligible.
-
Since he's a Mistborn and has all sisxteen powers he doesn't get those effects. There's a Wob on that.

Are the Ghostbloods an outgrowth of the Set?
Nesh replied to Silverblade5's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I don't think Kelsier would turn on Sazed. Even now one of the Ghostblood's core tenets is "We don't turn on our own." Kell for all his faults, and they are myriad, would never turn on one of the original crew. -
I mean she accidentally invented the airplane while trying to make the Fourth Bridge. One of the early designs had wings and kept rising. Sure it wasn't practical for their needs, but that's like some Da Vinci level vision.

The closest thing I can remember to Dalinar swearing not to summon the Stormfather as a blade was at the end of Oathbringer when the Stormfather told Dalinar that he wouldn't use a blade (A Bondsmith thing?) and Dalinar went along with it

I like Adolin the most. I'm not sure why, really, there's just something about him.

I wasn't sure if this should go here or in general, but I opted for here to be safe, mods can move it if I chose the wrong place. I think we may have started to see the fulfillment of one of of the Way of Kings death rattles here at the end of Rhythm of War Specifically the chapter 11 epigraph: I think Taravangian might be the Broken One. Everything that he's done weighs on his soul as he himself admits, and now he's a god. He's reigning over the Fused. What this might mean for Cultivation's fate I don't know.

Nesh replied to Silverblade5's topic in Cosmere Discussion
That doesn't line up timeline-wise. The front half of Stormlight predates Era 2. -
I was under the impression that the near death of the stormfather came when Odium was trying to make Dalinar his champion. I could be wrong about that.

Sel: Shai, and maybe Raoden, he fixed the Dor so he might be able to get the magic to work, or we could just have it work. Scadrial: Vin and Elend, because I doubt Vin would join without him. Nalthis: Susebron, because Tenth Heightening monster. Roshar: Szeth and Shallan. If you even need to list people from Roshar since that's where Odium is. I can think about eqipment and iteractions in a bit.
