Fur is made out of hairs.

It's always harder to use investiture on invested things. But yeah, depending on power level that's a very real possibility.

You can lash in a certain direction without limits though, so you don't need to do those complex maneuvers.

One would arguably be enough for a trilogy though...

"Imma murder someone so I don't have to shave my head every now and then." Yes, certainly sounds like a thing Marsh would do. No doubt.

What hair colour did koloss have again? Beavers have hair, right?

I am a stick. Fire holds no power over me.

This so much. Adolin is perhaps the only one (maybe together with Jasnah) who truly understands Renarin. I don't remember where exactly, but at some point in I believe OB Renarin says something, and Adolin knows him well enough to make the three steps Renarin skipped in his mind. That is care and understanding.

Then why can Dalinar still feel the light after Thaylen City, when he's lost to Odium as champion?

Gotta get creative with spike placement then. Or do we use extra small spikes?

That certainly helps. But also consider threads like the Church of the Stick. They never truly die.

Some threads have a tendency to do so...

Kill Rayse then pick up the shard while having enough other shards to balance it's Intent.

Hey guys. Half the people who answered this poll are lying.

Yeah but that's about Tanavast or Honor as shard. We know that the pieces of Honor have to still be around. That's what happens if a shard gets splintered; it turns into splinters of various sizes. The Stormfather is said to be the biggest one, but there's no reason to assume there are no other important ones.

No they may not. Though Brandon has swapped flashback characters around in the planning he's given us, it's always been men for each odd-numbered book and women for each even-numbered book. Clearly, he plans to stick to that.

Uhm, was Jasnah operating with the full knowledge that we have though? At least the scene didn't stand out for me...

So you think Unity is another chunk of Honor like the Stormfather is, and that Dalinar has some kind of bond with Unity? Also, I think it does make sense that the unseen light is the Spiritual Realm itself; it's described with light as metaphor more frequently.

They're a natural trio because they're considered the natural trio everywhere. An argument could also be made that they represent the Realms: Storms SR (they replenish Stormlight, which is pure investiture), Spren CR, Land PR. But the amount of times they're mentioned together in the books makes it clear that it's an important trio. The Eila Stele quote I mentioned is just one of them. In that case the Knights Radiant wouldn't be wondering about what was happening to Urithiru in the gemstones. Then how could Dalinar possibly summon Honor's perpendicularity, or receive Honors visions? Also, the Stormfather did not help bring about the Everstorm; all he tried was to wipe away the listeners (with the humans having the bad luck of being close to them). And Odium was pleased about the champions because he was completely convinced he'd be able to bring Dalinar to his side. Now he's probably dead scared instead because, as he himself said, Dalinar never loses. Oh by the way I very much disagree with calling Odium Segregation. This I agree with. There's a lot of stuff wrong there, and it's all kind of sitting there in my head as I slowly build links, kind of like how this theory happened. In a while I might have another one focusing on good versus evil on Roshar.

They were last seen with Ash, at least, falling unconscious while Jasnah was looking at real pictures of them.

I really should have checked but I was like "I've posited theories like this before (about a fourth Shard on Roshar) and never heard anything, plus Brandon would probably RAFO it". Should've just looked it up before wasting this... We can still discuss why then 3 is an arc number, in particular in relation to the Eila Stele quote.

Uh, not? Storm it, I'd have expected him to RAFO questions like that at the very least... It still doesn't fit with the rule of threes though.

I would seriously abuse it to go from release to release... With occasional breaks to catch up on theories people have. Also you could go through hundreds of years that way... Imagine the technological advancement you could see during your life. /completely off-topic

Huh. Might wanna add some kind of investiture detection. I just have this feeling...

The thing is, we know that we are already aware of the most important Sanderson Worlds, plus he will have to kind of limit himself to be able to finish the Cosmere in his lifetime. And, well, I don't buy it that he's not gonna come with more mindblowing surprises later on in Stormlight Archive. Like, isn't the end of Well of Ascension the first time you hear about Ruin and Preservation? Of course, on reread hints are there, but that's the first time you actually hear about them, if it isn't early Hero of Ages. The Oathpact imprisons the Fused, not Odium. Well, we know that Honor is splintered, we've heard that from a dozen different sources. As for Dalinar already being Honor, we know that if you gain enough power you don't have a physical body anymore...
