• In OB ch 53, we get a scene with Jasnah and Amaram from her POV.  He goes from wooing her, to mentioning his mother, to reaching for his shardblade.

Hopefully: Lopen, Adolin, Gaz, Davar brothers

 

No chouta for you 

Teft. It will be the saddest most heroic death every written . I also think Adolin, mostly because he keeps trying to take on the fused, but come on. He's just a regular man(an extremly skilled man but a man nonetheless) . He just can't keep up in a world full of radiants anymore. He will either become one (Maya plz ) or die.  

I remember thinking that Vasher would appear and would be a POV character and have a few chapters of him trying to get Nightblood back. It would have been so cool. 

But what actually happened is pretty good too. 

Wax, but only when he's with Wayne. Together they are hilarious. Teft, Adolin and Dalinar are really good too. And who can forget grumpy ol Kaladin? Sazed and Breeze were very well written IMO. Lightsong was the best part of Warbreaker by far. Sixth of the dusk was pretty cool with the whole, "I don't talk" thing.

Can't wait! 

Btw. Brandon did a short SA 4 reading:

I am so excited! 

Even though this is just a few paragraphs, it makes me happy to read new material.

And gems aren't the only thing that needs to be mined for - though it is possible that most of societies needs for materials naturally found could be created by soulcasters.

Ya but Evi's brother (Can't remember the name) said that Iri, and most countries don't have soul castors, so most countries would need to mine for stuff.

Even regular bullets would do pretty well.  There's a hot-off-the-press WoB from the recent Orem signing that it would only take two or three bullets to break Shardplate.  

Well this makes shardplate significantly less cool in my book.

We know that aluminum is inert, so maybe an aluminum hammer might disrupt shardplate and let you break through it.

If so, I would sneak up behind the shardbearer using the incredible silence of my Noctua NH-D15, then beat them over the head with it.

Or better yet, aluminum bullets. 

Well like Dalinar said, if God can be killed, was it ever really God? Since adonalsium was killed I don’t think he was really “God”.

I'm still solidly on team Wisdom as a shard.  

But aren’t dovotion and dominion paired? I guess not all shards need to be paired to a different shard, but those two seem like a pair.

So I was thinking. 

Odium is described as, Gods wrath, separated from his other virtues, so does that mean there is a shard of love/ compassion, or does that mean the the combination of other shards outruled “Gods wrath” in adonalsium.

Neigh impossible for a Radiant. Give her enough Stormlight and you could cut the child out with a dull knife. Not that I would wish her that, but it would work. If you want her dead it has to be an accident with soulcasting or extreme violence. Knights Radiant just don't fall ill and die.

From a story viewpoint we need her for the Ghostblood plot to advance.

Dang I guess your right. 

Yea, maybe a little, but I've put up with her for 3 books. 

I don't want anymore freaking Shallan. She was boring in the first book, peachy in the second, and depressing in oathbringer. I think it would be nice if after the 1 year split she had died someway(Maybe child birth) and Adolin took care of there kid.

I don’t think the spren through the boulder, I think that was just the storm itself, and Dalinar assumed it was the weird spren.

If the wind was strong to throw a boulder, wouldn’t all the mountains and basically everything else have eroded over just the 4,000 years we’ve seen? If I’m missing something please tell me, this has been bugging for a while now. 

Ya I guess it could just be recycled, but it makes more sense to me if Nightblood just uses it.

I'm guessing that he does.  But the thing is, he's still got to be getting most of his Investure from his user.  Referring again to when Vasher uses him in WB, he probably eats a couple hundred Breaths from Vasher in the time that Vasher kills...I forget but maybe a couple dozen Lifeless.  If you were quick and careful you could maybe get it down to more of a 1:1 ratio, but most of the time Nightblood's eating more Investure from his user than he is from his foes (at least on Nalthis; I'm not sure how much Investure a Fused or one of those big rock monsters contains).

Where are the breaths going? Like it says that Nightblood "eats" a lot of breath whenever you unsheathe it, so where are they going? They can't be destroyed, so maybe nightblood uses them to become more powerful. 

I have to say Dunny from bridge four. He was one of my favorite side characters. I would have loved to see him become a radiant.

Well what if a lightweavers surges combined allows them to create real things, not illusions? She can soul cast blood, flesh ect and make an illumination of a person and make another human being.

I so hope this becomes a thing. 

K this might be sad, but I totally think Teft should die, but only if he dies in some heroic incredible way, and saving a ton of people in the process. It also makes sense if you think about it. He's kinda Kaladins mentor character, like Obi Wan, or Dumbledore (who both die ). 

Granted. The book is a cliffhanger with no chance of a sequel.

i wish for the ability to always have a enough money for whatever I want.

Weren't soulcasters man-made though? Such a valuable object would not just be left there in the first place, even if there was repercussions. If the consequences of their use was so big, I don't think the world of Roshar would have ever let themselves grow dependent on them, at least this soon after the "scouring", if it was indeed a man-inflicted event. People right afterward would have passed along that soulcasters were bad if they were so passionate about it that they'd destroy a nation and  its peoples.

The way I understand it they were made in aimia, and when they were invented, they probably didn’t understand how powerful they were. But if someone did discover how powerful they are, namely odium, he might want to figure out how to, or just stop their progress, and that’s why he sent an unmade to destroy aimia. 

also the people might not have known and or cared that the soulcastors were harmful 

I'm thinking that Aimia is just protecting a bunch of soulcastors, because that's where they were originally made, and the reason he says it would destroy "worlds" is maybe because too much soulcasting is harmful for shadesmar, and roshar, and nobody has noticed it because theres not that many soulcastors around.
