Whoa..that's a lot of books. Anyways, welcome to Shard - we're glad to have you. I'm going to assume you've read all of Cosmere, judging by the collection. Who was your favorite character? And are you actually a redhead as your name implies?

Can we ban upvotes from this thread considering they're just another thing that helps us lose? After I upvote a bunch of people? And use up my daily quota?

Though it was still obscured by the mist, the ship mostly appeared to resemble a longship. There was but one mast and it seemed to be moving slowly, as though being propelled by rowing and not the wind. On board was a crew of fifty strong. And no, there were no horns on their helmets unlike the fictuous tales often told. But yes, these were Vikings.

So theoretically, if one was strong enough (for lack of better terminology and ignoring that it would be a whole different issue), the lines could wind up affecting things in space?

Is the spherical of planets taken into account at all with steel and iron? Like if one could see that far, would the blue lines eventually curve if they were powerful enough?

I'm going to assume there would be a very tall and secure fence surrounding them. Since the DA always abides to standard safety protocal.

Isolated ponds and lakes really would be preferable if they even had to exist at all. Then they at least wouldn't have free range of almost any aquatic place.

Yeah. When I was still looking in Alloy of Law for it, there was also some thing where Wayne wrote down the address of the abandoned hideout and gave it to Wax and Marasi. So likely a joke,
-
The fact that Wayne can read is enough to explain his vocabulary. Also, why would Wax so blatantly make a joke about a false statement? It makes sense when there's reason behind it, but when it has no truth to it? That doesn't feel like Wax...but maybe it is just penmanship...but it also isn't very Wayne either to respond how he did if that were the case... I'll try to find the scene, but that may take a while. EDIT: Found it. I had the wrong book in mind. It's in Shadows of Self, page 84. “Rusts. I should really write these things down.” (Wayne)“I believe that is another thing you often say.” Wax made a notation. “Unfortunately, you’d first have to learn how to write.”“Now, that’s unfair,” Wayne said, walking over to Wax’s desk and poking around in its drawers. “I can write— I know four whole letters, and one’s not even in my name!” It feels like sarcasm with some truth in it, but it could just be me.

Welcome to Shard, we're glad to have you. Which books have you read, if not all? And a word of warning, don't accept any cookies unless they're certified Hemalurgy-free - the side effects can be quite unpleasant.

So I try my best to most something somewhat serious or reasonable at every 100 post mark, but this time I've missed it by one. Oops. Anyways, what bothered me for a long while (and it still does) is Wayne's literacy. In Alloy of Law, don't ask for page numbers since I don't have them, Wayne remarks that he probably should take some notes himself on the case at hand. To this Wax responds that first Wayne would have to learn to write. Wayne tells him that he knows a whole four letters - some of which aren't even in his name. Then, in Bands of Mourning, maybe even Shadows of Self, Wayne is seen reading multiple books and Wax tells Marasi (?) that Wayne really is the bigger reader than him. This is the closest I have yet to find to a continuity error in Sanderson, but even this can be explained. My theories: 1. Wayne learned how to read in between the books. Unlikely, but possible 2. Wayne can read, but not write.It's plausible, though unclear why he would have learned one and not the other. Any thoughts or other explanations?

It's a pretty good idea and makes a lot of sense, though the concept of giving the DA more options for their abominations is a little disconcerting.
