Why do they want to do this? It would deprive them of their powers. Also how would you do that? The power of preservation is for keeping things in stasis. To put things back together again you would probably want somthing more like Honor. Also what happens to Ruin? That was not the agreement as best as I can tell. They stated that they would not interfere with each other. Cooperation is fine and it was not a formal oath. Autonomy might not like unity going on but we don't really know what their shtick is.

The ending scene of Bands of Morning. No. The Heralds are CS and they get bodies. That is the theory yes. I wonder what it looks like.

That was drilled into him from a very young age. Any medical student pre digital age was expected to be able to do the same not that this is unimpressive. His understanding of ethical behavior is very highly developed as is his emotional self awareness.

They have very different problems. IE episode 1 is actually just a strait up bad movie. The effects are decent and maul is awesome but other that it feels like you are watching someone play an OK video game. In fact just turning that whole movie into a video game would make it way more enjoyable. Episode two actually has a lot more going for it as a movie. It has elements recognizable as plot and theme but god o god the dialog and direction are absolutely appalling. I would have trouble making them worse(that is an exaggeration but only slightly). Episode three is actually fine as a movie but it is a star wars movie so grading on a curve it is kind of bad but not terrible. It has actual moments of subtlety where things are conveyed through emotion rather then very heavy speeches to the audience. Also if you have a soft spot for melodrama and many of us do it excels at that. New trilogy on the other hand. This one has some problems. Let us start with 7. Seven is actually fine. It pays proper homage to the first trilogy and essentially takes us through all the original movies at once with inverted story arcs. Rey instead of staying wants to leave. Fin instead of wanting to help others is serving himself. Han is not an idealist he is just doing the best he can and Poe is willing to die for what he believes in. This are interesting contrasts to Luke, Leia, Obi-Wan, and Han respectively. However it is admittedly unoriginal and it does drop into pandering sometimes(or a lot depending on who you ask). Now lets turn to 8. Eight has some problems. The pacing feels very off and it tries way to hard to surprise the audience. It feels like they were told that they were not original enough and overcompensated. The humor also fell flat and I do not think that Fin or really Rey was used effectively. It also did not seem consistent with the last film. If you watch them back to back you are in for some big shocks and not in a good way. However it did attempt some risky business Luke's final scene was perfect at least on his end and I think Kylo got some good character development although I am not happy it came at the expense of Luke. Then their was episode 9. Episode nine is fine but it is not good. It lets you enjoy yourself if you just turn your brain off and kind of go with everything but the pacing is massively off and I don't see how anything really works. Still you can have fun if you try. Which you like better is up too you but they both have major problems.

If he was asked about whether he called himself a good man personality-wise, Hoid would reply with a "No".[68] I think OB chapter 68 answers this question fairly well.

I think it is the difference between militaristic and barbarism. I professional soldier for example may train for war but idealy he should abhor it understanding the consequences and dangers. A barbarian(like most of the lighteyes) also trains for war but revels or enjoys it.

Add in governmental in a lot of roshar but yeah that is a pretty good explanation.

Shai explination for the how of what happened is based on her experiences and understanding and it seems to hold up depending on who you ask.

They are going to get more powerful fabrials but they will only be available to governments or the exceptionally wealthy. Other fabrails might get their start but a I doubt we will see a full magictec society with magical public transport or manufactured goods any time soon.

I am not sure what you are referring to. Eventually our moon could become a ring. Also with cosmere rules about making planets this is not a problem.

Welcome!

That will eventually happen in a few hundred years sure(baring the desolation going super wrong or a similar disaster). I am just pointing out potential flaws in examples because that is what I see.

The first sowing machines used mussel power. They don't need to be perfected but until the transition is noticeable to the average citizen I am not sure it means much.

I could have sworn that a thread already exists for this. Anyway I personally am hopping that Cultivation will get a piece of Odium and become Cosmere mom.

Also googled... Cool! They could eventually they just are not yet. These things take time. Remember the steam engine itself existed in the early 18th century but it did not kick off the industrial revolution until the mid 19th. That seems like a lot of work. Just mechanical power seems way way simpler.

The pooling liquid is just the godmetal in liquid form and investiture does leek from all perpendicularities in one form or another.

The Alethi of old were trained to fight "without it destroying them." This seems to imply that their armies went through training that made them resistant to the thrill's effects and they likely had customs and social institutions designed to reinforce that training. After the fall of the radiants those institutions would have eroded. The thrill could only effectively gain a place in Alethi society after they were broken down enough to become ineffective. Remnants may have remained but by the time it started working I doubt they were worth much.

That might be more of an art/craftsmanship then a science though.

You are confusing moral strength with susceptibility to what is essentially an addiction.

No I am really not. The only times we have seen a consistent renewable amount of a god metal is at a perpendicularity. The Pits of Hethsin. Shardblades are wierd and not renewable. Broadly speaking the best way to get investature is to go to a perpendicularity. It makes way more sense to assuming Harmamonium leeks through the SR from a perpendicularity then that Harmony just created some somewhere.

That was actually post desolation and those were the dregs left behind. I would say that the odds of them being Alethi were much lower. The Radiants had reasons for breaking their bonds that do not seem unmade derived. This is a separate issue.

I have these

Those were not Alethi. Also real world experiments demonstrate that almost any group of humans will act the same way. They thought they were saving the world. Jah Keved is actually know for this kind of behavior. Maybe. We know something is going on there.

You could make a smoke cloud in your shape but it would have the understanding of a smoke cloud and also the same senses as a smoke cloud which is not going to do the job.

Exactly. So I assume an alternate source of ettmetal. If it is anything like other godmetals it should only be available at a perpendicularity. As such they have one.
