Her father was a Tekiel. Equally solid I'd say

People with Koloss blood are prone to keep growing into adulthood. How many breaths would it need for that to stop? Or would it stop at all? If so, when, immediately or at some ideal height?

This institution was set up by a highly intelligent man who could have taken precautions and was not as sentimental as Amaram. Kaladin would have ended up with a slit throat.

(Cosmere spoilers)

Why would Taravangian need to seek out Knights Radiant by looking for people surviving unsurvivable accidents under that premise?

Do they think the idea of empire, that is a state comprising all of Scadrial, is evil?

This schedule raises a fundamental question. How is it possible that the Ghostblood series will not utterly spoil the second half of Stormlight Archive? Brandon himself may be capable of that. But it seems impossible for Dan Wells to not publish Cosmere stuff for that long. And whatever Boatload of Mummies will eventually be called, it should also come out during that period.

Unless you have a way to duplicate a copper mind, you need to assume that Kelsier made his memories into coins and lost them.

Listening to @FeatherWriter 's splendid carol I was triggered into thinking. It makes perfect sense that House Venture wants to claim Vin as one of them. How secure is that claim? I mean, technically Vin was a Tekiel, wasn't she? Do they claim her?

Do Survivorists reject the Final Empire? That is is the concept of a unified Scadrial tainted by the association with the Lord Ruler or do they make a distinction between the ruler and the state? The political state of the Elendel Basin suggests the former, but from a view point of surviving strength in numbers cannot be rejected out of hand. What is the theological stance?

Round about, very roughly about 6000 years before Stormlight Archive. The very minimum is given by the time between Aharietiam and Stormlight Archive, which is given as 4500 years. And that means that the radiants must have still been demigods in an ordinary Rosharan's eyes. What she writes does not fit that.

I doubt that she is an ordinary person on Roshar. This sounded like she was somewhat unfamiliar with the Knights Radiant She knows Hoid as Hoid, while the Heralds refer to him as Midius This sounds like a worldhopper composing these essays.

Thanks. I should have read it. That said, Senne Khald ? Coincidence? Or common ethnicity? Remember that millenia have passed and reduction of a final vowel is fairly common a change.

In case you haven't watched it: Say the Words It raises one question: Who is Senna Holk? Presuming I heard the name correctly. And if so? And, if I heard correctly That Senna? If not, from the same place, where the name is common?

Shadesmar is dangerous. It is a desert. Shadesmar is horribly clunky. travelling Shadesmar involves land transport. Compare the freight rates for trucking and shipping.

The WoBs seem to mainly touch upon what Surgebinders can do, for example why Lightweavers show up among them. That is a distinct question of how you become a Surgebinder. And the thing is that Odium definitely intentonally gave them powers. Do you seriously want to propose that he inadvertedly made them Surgebinders? Then why would we assume that giving people on a direct supply of power from himself the powers of a Shard native to Roshar would tie him less to Roshar?

Enlightened spren do something different in terms of powers granted and they are partly of Odium, are they not? The Stormfather told us that the Fused originally were not Surgebinders. How else, if not directly through Odium's actions did they become Surgebinders?

OK, this may be a stupid question, but why did Odium make Surgebinders? Him being Odium I'd assume that the default would be Voidbinders. Why did he go to the extra effort of making the Fused Surgebinders?

Well, we knew three species at a minimum were present. And I have to correct myself. The burnt arthropods are from one of Dalinar's visions. It seems to me that we were to get that a multispecies battle had been fought. Though even to this day, we strictly speaking do not know on whose side the corpses of the violett blood had fought nor whom they were bound to. Though I suppose if they had been bound to voidspren the mechanics would be the same.

The very first prologue of Aharietiam features three kinds of blood and something that looks like burnt insects.

Sorry, but no, that is indefensible due to the Iriali. It's been 341 years since they went away from Lumar. As of Rhythm of War they are still on Roshar. And they need to spend some time on Lumar. Something around 400 years after Rhythm of War is the minimum.

Killing Sadeas was a good idea. Not a honorable idea, but that what a rational observer would have considered desirable in Adolin's place. Yes, we might see a screaming match behind closed doors. But fundamentally, Adolin was to get more honorspren. Are they coming? Frankly, I do not get the assumption that Adolin would try to get home quickly or why Dalinar would propose that. They are finally at a place where answers are to be had. Militarily relevant answers. Do you remember Dalinar's first military principle? Information is priceless. Nor can I see why Adolin would want to leave Shadesmar. He is useful there.

That is why we will see it in the second half, if it happens. The Kholins have political issues to clash over. Most obviously Gavilor and Jasnah. Adolin is a trained staff officer. He will make the same calculation. His troops are in the field dieing.

Do Honorblades change your eye color, if applicable? If not, why not?

The Kholins are aristocrats. For them this idea that they have a private life that is divorced from the political does not exist. And they know that. If Adolin and Dalinar clash, it is a political rift among the Alethi.
