  1. And those aforementioned native peoples did have some history with diseases and did not have to simultaneously deal with issues that threaten refugee populations(poor living conditions and sanitation). Additionally they will be in a much nastier environment to the one they are used to (higher g force and lower oxygen content) that will exacerbate any existing medical conditions. I do not see a nalthian refugee population surviving in any significant numbers.
  2. The perfect state page on Brandon's website has a deleted scene. It is quite good and I highly recommend it but it has a link to what seems to be a nonexistent annotation. Does anyone know if this annotation does in fact exist?
  3. I would be a crazy wizard who lived in a tower far from human civilization who destroyed threats to my universe by dint of my superior cunning and relentless willpower.
  4. Brandon has confirmed that different shards do have differently "flavored" investiture. There clearly is a difference. Additionally fueling surges of the same type with different investiture will have slightly different effects.
  5. Your welcome
  6. I kind of want to go there. Also I am not sure that the spirits can hurt people who still have a physical body the way that humans do and Heralds don't. Ashyn has floating cities that are hospitable and considering the limited number of people you are actually likely to evacuate they might be enough. been enough to justify Nightblood's foreign backstory. Yeah but not on this scale. Rosharans have no inoculations or natural resistances think "discovery" of america bringing smallpox but worse.
  7. Braize and Ashyn are both closer. (Is Vorinism correct? Has mankind gotten virtuous enough to return to the tranquiline halls?) It is Nightblood's origin story. Spren are locked to Roshar. They can't leave the system at all. Same for Heralds. I hope not for the sake of the Rosharan people. There are also more mundane concerns for resettlement of Rosharans. Roshar has a higher oxegen content and lower gravity then any other planet. I see this leading to a lot of health problems. Much more dangerously the common cold was introduced to Roshar it is currently causing an plague epidemic. Roshar's free investature makes its people more long lived and resilient against diseases. Imagine what it will be if they get to the tropical part of Nalthis which is where the perpendicularity is located.
  8. We know that refugees are a thing that the CR on Roshar actually has some experience with Captaion Ico mentions them. However I don't think a mass resentment of the majority of Roshar's population is possible. Accessible perpendicularities tend to be in remote locations so the this would likely involve a planetary die off of the majority of the population. Also why is Nalthis the only place we are letting these refugees settle? I know that scadrail is not a possibility(we have seen post book 10 scadrail) but there are other planets in the cosmere and some have stable perpendicularites. I personally hope that we get a mass invasion of Braize at some point.
  9. Shallan is as @18th Shard pointed out of a less CR centered order. Additionally she is trying to avoid knowledge of her own radiance so she would purposefully miss those kinds of details.
  10. Read the end
  11. Who is the herald of cutting things apart? Shalash
  12. And Blightwind which looks like smoke and the thrill which looks like a red mist. Hm. Also Truthwatcher spren look like rainbows. What are they on the CR side?
  13. Stonewards, Windrunners, and bondsmiths are all somewhat similar(they all get the flash of light power up) so I personally think that they will be like Syl and just look like small versions of themselves on the PR side. Alternatively you can only see the cracks so you have this cool outline magma outline that looks vaguely like a person.

    Ah. I was confused.
  15. It would not really be her. The mists would react based on her personality and could contain some of her memories but Vin herself has passed beyond. This could mean that the mists would be more interested in certain events or people (IE parties, fights, people like Wax who spend time at night) and would dislike certain things (IE large gatherings of people) but sadly that is it.

    ? While this is a good thought you would be noticeable to bronze burners and more importantly you could not leave the scene of the crime for days. Also that is bendalloy not cadmium.
  17. I don't understand.
  18. Me too. Just a point for future inspiration. Dion teeth are pointed which is what makes the smile so disturbing.
  19. Perhaps he also keeps people from dying so that they can waste more food and cause more confusion and mismanagement.
  20. Untie is easy to visualize. You are just reverting a rope to its original shape. Untie me is more difficult in that case your focus is primarily on yourself wanting to get free not the rope and you are not thinking as much about what the rope should be doing as how you yourself want to be. This is my interpretation anyway.
  21. She is is seeing her CR shadow as she is being pulled into that realm by Ivory.
  22. The language they use in the book seems to make it clear(at least to me). "You will replace his soul with..."
  23. You can store breath in a nicrosil metalmind. This is actually least crazy part of my theory.
  24. Nergaoul arrived only after the thrill. Also he does not seem to have an aoe the way other unmade do additionally Odium would certain have been able to do something like that prior it all it took were two unmade and singer reactions and Ash indicate that this is a first time.
