  1. Not finished with the book so no spoilers Im disappointed with WAT as it themes contradict the themes of oathbringer oathbringer was all about accepting responsibility. WAT all about rejecting responsibility by embracing the lie of nuance which is just a secular version of the Devil made me do it. I suspect most of you will disagree with me on this and I don’t really care I’m honestly just ranting out of a frustration
  2. True but that doesn’t mean that a shard can’t take advantage of it now that has occurred
  3. I think time will go slower for him cause him to age at least a decade
  4. Your forgetting again that Todium doesn’t have to follow the the spirit of the contest only the letter. Again, he doesn’t need Real consent just the appearance of it. If the contest wasn’t important, then this would not book would not be divided into days. It’s literally set up so that the context is the climax. and I would like to remind you again that if it’s a unmade possessing Gavinor then it would neither be a child and it would also be fully consenting
  5. You’re overthinking it he just did that to make an explosion so you could get away
  6. It has to be someone he cares about because it has to be a draw . It has to be someone that he can’t kill and can’t kill him. Nale Ishar el all these could win, but ODM doesn’t want to win. He wants to get out of the contest entirely. He made that very clear and rhythm of war. The only way Oduim wins is with a draw because wit has rigged it so that odium loses either way however as foreshadowed in rhythm of war, he hasn’t anticipated possibility that neither side could win. 1. It has to be one of them no other candidate will give odium what he wants, which isnt Victory. 2.Todium doesn’t have to follow the spirit of the law anymore only the letter. That was made clear by wit. so simple consent is probably all he needs as opposed to reasonable consent or informed consent. 3. If it’s unmade possession him then it would qualify as both willing and not a child.
  7. Ok I understand
  8. Ok I understand I think this is probably the best guess so far
  9. I see but Brandons not above being predictable at times. Beside that leaves only Adolin and Renarin as possible candidates both seem unlikely. Just curious what do you mean “over done” is there a lot of fantasy out there with child champions of evil that I have never read?
  10. Well, anything is possible personally, I am of the opinion that he will be the champion (in order to fulfill the requirements. The champion can only be one of three people, and I don’t see the other two realistic options, despite the foreshadowing of it in the last chapter.) We don’t know much about Gavinor additionally, the character is still young so he could still change dramatically over the course of the time skip skip I certainly could see him as dust bringer, or perhaps a sky breaker.
  11. if it’s yelig nar possessing him then it technically not a child. Gavinor, Adolin or renarin it has to be one of theses 3. One one else will give odium the draw he needs. We seem to have plenty of foreshadowing for all 3. These last chapters seem to foreshadow Renarin as champion, but I think that’s a fake out
  12. 1. She was shot with a min bilista and couldn't heal what do you mean she just "felt wrongness" 2 they ran away from the Wind Runners not her 3 what do you mean hand waved ? Her armor was literally no protection. 4.no it is only Mraize says that no one else portrade it that way.
  13. That's because shards can't settle because they exist every where read your own wob
  14. 1. "most powerful organization in Cosmere" I not sure they can trust what Mraize says. 2. They didnt just have a secret tunnel they had multiple look outs a guard Four shard bearers at least two Radiant and a radiant killer weapon. additionally Kel had to fear the Lord Ruler and the Steel ministry Nothing Like that is hunting the Ghost bloods so it isnt surprising that there security is lax. 3. Shallan was almost killed and nearly every Ghostblood escaped, She didnt uncover any of there secrets not exactly a win.
  15. I dont see any evidence that Honor and Cultivation allowed Odium to come to roshar especially since it dosnt work like that Shards dont come and go they exist everywhere. perhaps you mean that he invested on roshar but that dosnt make sence either if harmony couldnt stop Autonomy from investing on his planet why would you assume Honor could.
  16. You can’t force someone to burn a metal
  17. She almost died not exactly easy. And shallan only just turned on them so there hasn’t been much time for them to prepare Disappointing yes, but it makes sense. If kel and his crew would have been caught in FE Then I doubt anyone but vin and kel would have stayed a fought and even that case they would’ve only fought long enough for the others to escape. Why should this be any different?
  18. Lot can happen new year. Shallan had a lot of natural talent for spying that and super powers can get you far. Especially, if you know how to delegate. Remember she has at least one trained spy with her. not to mention that until recently ghost bloods were helping her. Besides you probably don’t join the court unless you have some ability with spying.
  19. 1. We have no idea when someone gets a soul. It is at least a possibility that happens at conception. but more importantly. 2. They’ve been married for over a year. They have had plenty of time to conceive a child. And also 3. They have access to the spiritual cognitive realm and so can probably figure out someone is or is it pregnant sooner than we can.
  20. I don’t see, Why you think her being pregnant is either cheap or a trophy. Neither do I understand what you have against the particular trope. Make no mistake I don’t want Adolin to die with or without. That said, I understand why this trope exist. It gives the read hope for the future, it says yes people die, but they also get born Death is not the end. And neither is your favorite characters sacrifice in vain. There Sacrifice was necessary the future generation. I don’t want Adolin to die either way, but I would find it easier to accept if shallan was pregnant. Glimmer of Hope when in despair is better than nothing. Of course it would add to the narrative, especially if Adolin or some other character dies see the post above
  21. We know from Brandon Sanderson, that what Renarin does is half surge binding half void binding. We know from row that he regrown the same as all other truth watchers While his illumination (or at least what he thinks of as illumination behaves like a different if someone similar power different from the illumination of his other truthwatchers.
  22. It is a common theory that the truth watcher in the past could see the future, however it has been debunked by Brandon Sanderson himself. You’re right we don’t have any evidence that they give different powers, but we don’t have any evidence that they don’t either. We simply don’t have evidence because we only have one example. It appears from what’s happening to rinarin that he gets one surge and one void . In his case, he has the surge of regrowth and what I am calling for a lack of better term to void illumination. But without any other examples we can’t know if he is the standard. It could be Other corrupted truthwatchers have the surge illumination and the void of regrowth
  23. I meant that we only have one example of a corrupted mist Spren with the void of illumination that grants access to the spiritual realm. We don’t know if tumi will have the void of illumination. It could easily have the void of regrowth which we have no idea about.
  24. The ghost blood sale was about to be attacked by the wind runners so I suspect we will their sleepless take action. After all, it’s too early for them to catch the ghost bloods. Which means the ghost have to have an Ace up their sleeve to escape. I’m willing to guess the sleepless is the ace.
  25. Wasn’t it revealed that was the Sja- anot? I’m pretty sure that’s what was revealed in the chapter correct me if I’m wrong. Agreed it’s too early to tell but it’s definitely a possibility so we should keep an eye out for more foreshadowing
