Brightness Jencee

We now know who holds the shard of Whimsy!!!

Y'all are amazing!!! Thank you so much for all the work you do for us fans!

The discussion about the safe cytonic hyperdrives gave me a thought. @FeatherWriter mentioned a beacon in space as well as cytonic communication between bridge and ship and Shannon mentioned cytonic noise in the nowhere. This made me think of Brade's cytonic scream that drew the Delver. Theory: What Spenca assumes is the bridge is actually a beacon/space platform far out in uninhabited space where the Superiority uses brainwashed cytonic humans to project cytonic screams into the nowhere while the ship slips through. They need the cytonic communication to time the scream and the ftl jump. So, basically what Alyx said just with the nowhere added on. The slug just provides the ftl, not the scream,  therefore isn't safe in and of itself. 

My mind is always going 1000 different directions after watching Shardcast. I love it!

I liked the book once I was able to let go of my expectations and just read it for what it was. I missed Kimmalyn, though, bless her stars!

"Yes, please" for the Autonomy Shardcast!

“Just a note...I the the Storm Father’s visions were completely unrelated to a nahel bond. Dalinar didn’t bond the Stormfather until well after he can completed the entire vision cycle. Gavilar didn’t have to have bonded the Stormfather. I think he randomly sent visions to a few people to see what would happen. When Dalinar spoke the oaths in WoR, the Stormfather’s response seems like he had not allowed himself to be bonded since the recreance.  Just my personal opinion. Here is the scene:

“Dalinar looked to the sky again. “I have been commanded to refound the Knights Radiant. I will need to join their number if I am to lead them.” Distant thunder rumbled in the sky, though there were no clouds. “Life before death!” Dalinar shouted. “Strength before weakness! Journey before destination!” I AM THE SLIVER OF THE ALMIGHTY HIMSELF ! the voice said, sounding angry. I AM THE S TORMFATHER. I WILL NOT LET MYSELF BE BOUND IN SUCH A WAY AS TO KILL ME ! “I need you,” Dalinar said. “Despite what you did. The bridgeman spoke of oaths given, and of each order of knights being different. The First Ideal is the same. After that, each order is unique, requiring different Words.” The thunder rumbled. It sounded . . . like a challenge. Could Dalinar interpret thunder now? This was a dangerous gambit. He confronted something primal, something unknowable. Something that had actively tried to murder him and his entire army. “Fortunately,” Dalinar said, “I know the second oath I am to make. I don’t need to be told it. I will unite instead of divide, Stormfather. I will bring men together.” The thunder silenced. Dalinar stood alone, staring at the sky, waiting. V ERY WELL , the Stormfather finally said. T HESE W ORDS ARE A CCEPTED. Dalinar smiled. I WILL NOT BE A SIMPLE SWORD TO YOU , the Stormfather warned. I WILL NOT COME AS YOU CALL, AND YOU WILL HAVE TO DIVEST YOURSELF OF THAT . . . MONSTROSITY THAT YOU CARRY. Y OU WILL BE A R ADIANT WITH NO S HARDS.”

Now that I said this, there’s probably a WoB somewhere that says Gavilar bonded the Stormfather...you all said that as if was cold, hard fact.
