Dang I was totally going to post this( i finished my reread a week ago) because I noticed that too, so fun because with Mraize being a worldhopper and a hunter it seems to me that he knows what he is talking about. I think I need to keep a notepad near my book to take notes so I dont forget things. Edit: this reminded me of something else I got out of my reread. Tyn thought Shallan was a conartist, Thats because she is. Shallan wont admit it but passing yourself off as wanting to be a ward for someone to steal a soulcaster. Thats a con! Convincing slavers that you are in a much better postion than you are. That's a con! Even the promise she fulfilled to the deserters. There was no way she could know she would get them pardoned. and after Tyn it becomes way more obvious. Shallan Thinks she is tricking these people but she Really is just deceiving herself

I want to be the very best Like no one ever was To catch rep is my real test To train clicks is my cause I will travel across the boards Searching far and wideTeach Sharders to understandThe posts that are insideReputation! Gotta catch it all

What happens when someones real name is an Ookla?

yeah this is a really good point I never felt it either. I just went from "Navani seems like some sort of temptress" to "well I guess they are a thing now" to finally "ok Navani and fabrials seem pretty interesting I guess she can stick around"

"Unfortunately, this will be the final, planned, Mistborn novel for the foreseeable future." Maybe it is just me but I'm ready for a break from mistborn if we can visit some of the other Shardworlds more so. Especially Nalthis and Sel!

Wait what!!!! Is this true? Where did you hear it?!

Ok nice! just curious but what hosting service do you use? I was thinking about getting my own VPS

Does anyone else ever look at this and think: "I want to be the very best. Like no one ever was."

Hmm I guess I will have to re-watch it then He does talk about running into things, but both of these would have immense Gravity wells pulling them out of hyperspace and then incinerating them. There is also this: Which with the new interpretation of traveling FTL rather than through Hyperspace would probably mean that the falcon would have hit one of the asteroid and bye bye falcon. And I don't mean to belabor and I will drop it now. I just mean that the hyperspace science was there for a reason because if you have it go the other way if a ship hit a pebble or a piece of paper from a garbage dump it would be the end for that ship, making lightspeed travel completely unrealistic.

I understand that but even if Shallan and Adolin do get Divorced it doesnt mean that Shalladin would happen. I actually hope that in the next book we might see some evidence of a Laral plus Kalladin relationship so I'm definitely not trying to say that. [removed] I really was just trying to focus on why I think Divorce might happen for the first time in a Sanderson book, the main reason I created the new thread was because I was hoping to get some new people into the discussion. If there are things or theories of whats to come, that make you think that Shallan and Adolin won't get divorced but will instead work through their problems I would love to hear them. If you disagree in my original comment about Veil having the most truth of the personalities I would love to hear your thoughts. I definitely am trying to be open minded about it and not drive away anyone.

Interesting, so is the IP address in your sig to your personal server? Is sig.svg then a route to create the image and run the processing you discussed?

Ok thanks Guys I will try that!

Hahaha. I'm glad/terrified someone knows where that picture is from. The funniest part of the way I picture Sazed is if his Shards are ever not in Harmony I think Discord would be a pretty good name for him don't you think?

I dont think that is very inexplicable that actually makes sense to me seeing her picture! Now if you want to talk about inexplicable... The way I view terrisman from mistborn is with faces simliar to this. I don't know why but all terris people have goat faces to me. Maybe its because they describe them as having long faces? Maybe its because Rashek wears a fur coat. But yeah

Its entirely possible and I hope it does happen, because Kylo Ren could easily be lying. I mean to tease us with images of a ship flying off in episode 7 and saying that they are just poor junkers makes it feel like a shaggy dog story to me.

Did I come off strong or offensive? If I did I certainly didn't mean to and would like to know so that I could better avoid it in the future so honest feedback would help with that. Honestly I created this topic because I saw something I didn't think anyone (or at least most people) else had considered much in depth. Originally the topic was titled "Adolin and Shallan will get divorced" but someone changed the title probably for spoiler reasons and I could see how the new title is well... I don't like it. I definitely dont see ti as an issue because not only will it enhance their story line, but it keeps viewpoint creep in check later in the series. I really hope it doesn't get to WoT big with the number of juggling viewpoints

Wowza! I'm guessing this was Flashback Navani then?

I'm just curious how people picture certain animals or people in the cosmere I have seen actor threads before but I know I have some more bizarre ones that my mind puts in for ease I believe. For Example this is how I picture the Koloss Just with skin more or less stretched depending on size. Do you guys have any interesting visualizations in your head?

I signed up for Brandons newsletter about a year ago but I still havent gotten a single newsletter. Does anyone know what the email address is that the newsletter is sent out on that way I can whitelist it. Thanks

You are right about both these things from the context of past the past movies. That why these things are so dangerous to plot courses through because you would be pulled out of hyperspace possibly into a star or the center of a planet. But this just serves my point event more, according to the traditional rules of hyperspace So traditionally Holdo's ship would have warped on the other side of the ship, harmlessly. This is why Star wars doesn't have Hyperdrive torpedoes, or suicide tie fighters because the Science doesn't allow it. And if we assume that that ship is big enough for a gravity well and that's why it was able to interact with it then all ships and the death star would be susceptible as well.

So I have thought about it talked about it with some of my friends/ family and I have warmed to the movie somewhat. I actually like what @insert_anagram_here said about the Rose finn issue. While it offered a look at some of the most interesting parts of the movie to me in the end it feels like it takes WAY too much time for how little of importance it was. It didnt accomplish anything besides "war profiteers are bad" message. I was originally offended by the way they portrayed Luke, he is a flipping hero! But I warmed to that somewhat as well and I really wanted more of him acting cause he KILLED it in this movie!!!! I feel like given more time with the character would have really helped unite people around luke. But one thing I can not get over is continuity issues... This movie went a drastically different direction and did some really AWESOME things! But in doing so it removes an element of immersion from the universe from me. First and biggest is what Holdo did to Snokes ship. This was one of the coolest things I have seen in movies recently and at the time it made sense to me!!! But then... like changing a magic system halfway through a book it completely threw the immersion out of wack. Take a look at this reddit thread created before the movie. Lot of questions come from this all of a sudden like... Why in episode 7 were they able to warp through a shield. Why didnt they crash a ship into the Death Star? Why build a Death Star if someone could just crash a ship into it? Why build a death star if you could just crash a ship into a planet? Where are the FTL torpedoes? The answer to all of this is in the past they traveled through Hyperspace, for this forum you could kind of view it as a different realm, a different dimension. They dont interact with the physical realm until they come out of lightspeed. But this one scene changes all that canon and in the wake... well yeah. The changes to the Force powers start to feel like Non-Brandon form of magic where "hey deus ex machina" the force can do that now. Though Yoda with the lightning was awesome. And personally I didn't like the move from good versus Evil to hey anakin was right "from my perspective the jedi are evil" sort of greyscale message they were trying to sell me but that's personal. So I enjoy the Movie, I would have enjoyed it more if it wasnt a Star wars movie because 4, 5, and 6 are nearly sacred texts for me and this movie felt like it was trying to say "Let the past die. Kill it, if you have to. That's the only way to become what you were meant to be." and no-one, not even George Lucas, can kill the originals for me.

So I finally saw The last Jedi tonight... and I still need time to process it but my first reaction is it was a good movie, but a bad Star Wars movie. I will post more tomorrow as it definitely appears I'm in the minority here and I need to think about it more.

Awesome thanks for updating this! It is very useful to see this representation. Can I use your map for a post I want to update?

OP I'm so glad you posted this I have been thinking about how fun that would be haha. I mean the romeo and Juliet trope, or they could repair the whole feud. Or they could just argue about oaths and truths and lies. I definitely want more interaction between them at least.

Yeah this. The epilogue of WoR mad me laugh so hard first time I noticed it haha with Wit's comment about Intelligent life.
