Wit Beyond Measure

At the Thaylen City Oathgate on the Shadesmar side when that Fuzed stood over the severely injured and defenseless Adolin, poised to strike his deathblow, I screamed and cheered as Maya jumped the Fuzed, literally, to save Adolin's life! I fell in love with their relationship at that moment and knew he'd bring her back. When she started whispering to him on the other side, I cheered again but wasn't the least surprised. We do have a ton of KR already, I agree, but we need at least one to three more, as I reckon. We don't yet have a Willshaper or a Stoneward unless we count Taln, and I don't think we can count the Heralds in this respect. And we could use a Dustbringer who is actually loyal to Dalinar. BTW, this probably has been mentioned before, but I can't help but wonder if the similarity between Adolin and Adonalsium is fifty kinds of portentous. Could Adolin become the new Adonalsium, reuniting all 17 shards? Wild and crazy, yes, but I'm just throwing that out there. On a related crazy note, I'm wondering if Jezrien's death opens a spot for a new Herald of the Windrunners. Obviously, I'm not sure it works that way, but the other Heralds started as mere men.

Oh, my goodness, what a great idea! I love how tightly Sanderson writes especially this series so that next to nothing is there by coincidence. There must be a reason for the spren's first appearance with Eshonai, right? The spren doesn't have to be Eshonai, though, but could be a spren previously bonded with Eshonai. Remember how Eshonai felt a tiny voice screaming inside when the war form spren took her body? Almost as if her uncorrupted spren from a previous form had been held prisoner by the voidspren of warform, perhaps giving this uncorrupted spren, once released upon Eshonai's death, the inspiration and knowledge for holding Venli's voidspren captive. I have so much more I want to say about other ideas and the book in general, but I need to catch up in the thread first. Tomorrow... I've looked up the particular quote to add, immediately after Eshonai's return from her transformation to stormform:
