    Hestoc sat alone from a tower, watching the celebrations. At last. A subforum. Not like I did anything to contribute. Alas, though. The emergence of the subforum occurring before Voidus Prime had been lured back into the material fold, before the Seventeenth has been put back together.... this complicated the schedule he’d been holding in the back of his mind all this time. He may yet have to involve himself in the wars surely to come. But for now, he’d just do as he had - watch, judge, and wait.

    I'd recommend Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen. Though it can be a bit dark at times, it's a solid series in my opinion. (As well as the accompanying series the Path to Ascendancy, Novels of the Malazan Empire, the Kharkansas trilogy, and no doubt the forthcoming Toblakai Trilogy.)

    They melted into sugary, acidic puddles.

    The other shards agreed. Hagrid had to be stopped. At any and all costs.

    I have joined the tautology club by entering into its ranks. I have also ascended into the Tautology club's now-not-so-secret second level by joining the now-not-so-secret second level of the Tautology club.

    Uncle Brandy was afraid of the buttered toast, that had soaked itself in the brandy. Very afraid indeed.

    They ran from Scadrial to Threnody.

    Wait. Sorry to interrupt the story, but which two shards is Butt in possession of?

    @Midavis The second point is probably not possible, as one of Dalinar's visions, set during the time of the Desolations and Knights Radiant, showed the existence of Midnight Essences, which require Re-Shepnir to create them, as shown in Part 1 of Oathbringer. According to your theory, this would mean that Midnight Essences are unrelated to the Midnight Mother, Re-Shepnir, whilst the evidence says otherwise. I'd respond to the rest of your theory, but my mind is clouded at the moment. I'll update this as I find more proof.

    The door was thrown open. A woman in blue and white robes stormed in. "Lift, what in damnation have you done?", asked a very frustrated Queen of Alethkar. Correct me if I'm wrong, but House Kholin's colours are white and blue, yes?

    You do realize that it's literally the Serpent from Eden, but implanted in the Cthaeh? One bite? She vanished, but Butt vanished with her as well this time. Seems her awesomeness extended outwards.

    "No, no. This is no dream. I have returned. I will have my vengeance, starting with you." The Ghanderflaffle-Heahtc spoke, extending its Roots closer to Butt as he backed up into a corner.
  13. The Thinking Herald
    "Ah." The tree spoke, hissing. "My enemies, the 17th Shard, threw me down this pit, in order to.... What was it? "Limit my malignant effect on the Cosmere." That was it. But now, I have you to torture for all eternity. This will be fun. Finally, my revenge upon the accursed Butt Venture." Then, the roots of the tree seemed to detach from the ground and slither in a snakelike - no, Ghanderflaffle-like - manner towards Butt. "Yes indeed. My revenge."
  14. The Thinking Herald
    A sickening crack sounded as Lift and Butt hit the bottom of the bottomless pit. Lift looked around, made a frightened noise, then vanished into thin air. "Welcome, Butt Venture." Huh? Looking around, Butt saw that the speaker was apparently a.... cracked stone tree? "I am the Heahtc. You are in my lair now." The tree spoke again, before beginning to laugh maniacally.

    I've made the requested updates.

    When you have a pedantic debate with other sharders about semantics and how they affect the viability of non-canon shard names and combinations.

    Leyrann, may I join as a new order? Suggested order: The Elsewards (Combination of Elsecallers and Stonewards) Oaths: 1st Ideal: Life before Death, Strength before Weakness, Journey before Destination 2nd Ideal: I will seek knowledge in order to carry out my duties. 3rd Ideal: I will use wisdom for the furthering of my goals and responsibilities. 4th Ideal: I will hold fast to my logical decisions, even when others tell me to abandon them. 5th Ideal: I am resolution. I welcome aid in amending these oaths. Surges: Transformation and Cohesion. Together, these allow me as an Elseward to not only change objects but to shape them as well. Traits: Wisdom and Dependability. Spren: Decisionspren. Appear as greyish, intricate orbs accompanying their Radiant. Attributes: They usually take long amounts of time to settle on any one course of action, judging the positive and negative outcomes of such actions before taking them. Once they make a decision, however, they stick with it, almost stubbornly, despite other people's warnings against doing so. Have a serious view on life, and usually don't communicate too well with others who may be more carefree. However, when around like-minded people, nothing stops them from going on and on about logic and learning. Resonance: Can Soulcast almost anything into almost anything else, including Soulcasting human bodies. When shaping, often end up with intricate and detailed results, shaping armour from stone itself and the like. I'd like to join as an Elseward of the Third Ideal, and throw my lot in with the Knights of Honor.

    I'm kinda a combination of Sazed, Elend, and Renarin, leaning more towards Renarin. I read a lot, am, admittedly, slightly insecure, think a lot about things I have no right to be thinking about, such as political issues, ask questions where I probably shouldn't ask them, and try desperately to fit into my friends' definition of cool and in.

    Granted, but Kelsier misjudges his strength and kills Brandon. I wish that I was a normally functioning human.
  20. The Thinking Herald
    Granted, but all the d20s in the world disappear suddenly, and you can't roll nat 20s on d20s. I wish for real and high amounts of charisma to be used in daily interaction.
  21. The Thinking Herald
    Sell. Odium = Dumbledore = Death
  22. The Thinking Herald
    Granted, but you can only bond this beaver and nothing else. Further, when it gains sentience and sapience, it only speaks to insult you. I wish for charisma.

    I'd probably figure out how to hack into computers, do so to GRRM's, Sanderson's, and Rothfuss's computers and install un-trackable spyware to read all their forthcoming novels. Or I could freak out and panic.
  24. The Thinking Herald
    Seems to me to be the case, too. In all likelihood, they just changed it from a "part 2" to a different title for marketing reasons (Ie so that audiences don't immediately say "this is the same film"), or for tonal and plot reasons yet unknown to us.

    Butt died from being in the vacuum of space too long. Then Endowment felt really sorry for him and brought him back as a Returned. And re-re-christened him Urafius the Happy.
