Obviously Moash, but in a particularly painful way for Kal: I'd like him to be redeemed, until Kal realizes the corrupted Spren can meat-puppet him along anytime they like, and his mercy has let a spy into our camp, or some such thing. Kal, after several hundred pages culminating in a sincere reunion in which many hurts may at last be healed, will be forced to kill his old friend. The deed should be done at a moment when Moash is fully lucid, so Moash will see it as the penultimate betrayal he always feared, and let Kal know.
Anyway, we all know Moash is either going to die or set himself on one hell of a redemption arc, and I'd at least like it to be interesting.
Adolin should also die. Unlike, I've found, a great many people here, I'm not at all annoyed by Shallan's developing MPS; it positively fascinates me, and I hope we delve deeper into what's rapidly becoming my favorite character. In any case, that will have to resolve itself eventually, and I suspect it could well start when the poor young lady's madness prevents her from saving her beloved. Perhaps we might postpone that to book five, or perhaps it could occur at the end of the fourth, allowing the usual period of despondency and then renewed strength at the beginning of the fifth.
I'd also like Lift gone. I confess I haven't read Edgedancer, but thus far she's a dreadfully annoying character, and between volumes I've honestly forgotten a great deal about her storyline. We're supposed to get her flashbacks this time along, so I pray to the Forgotten Gods that Brandon will find some way to make her less grating before he -- hopefully -- impales her. Don't get me wrong, it's not a badly-constructed character or anything, but I tend to sigh when I come upon one of her chapters. I think she'd be a perfect candidate for shock factor; have her suddenly run out of stormlight in the middle of a battle and let a random peasant get a good swipe.
