  1. Welcome!
  2. Bit of leeway. The Parsh are master of the land because Odium says so.
  3. I think this points to a flaw of Gavilar that has been hinted at but never explicitly shown yet. He is a misogynist. It is noteworthy that despite looking for Radiants and possibly being one himself that he can't ID his own daughter as one of them. He also made sure that Jasnah and that said brother would be in the succession despite knowing that his heir would have an extremely difficult time and both his children's temperaments were clearly visible when they were children he still chose Elhokar. We already knew that Nale knew about Szeth from Jasnah's prologue. The Heralds don't even care about Amaram enough to have him assassinated. Yeah I said it Amaram. They don't care about you at all. We still don't know that Nale actually sent Heleran. Mraize says that he might have taken the mission upon himself. I also am under the impression that Amaram had an inflated view of his own importance even within the organization. He was useful but I don't see anyone with a brain trusting him to do anything more complicated then stand there looking regal and occasionally to lead troops. He was likely just intended as a public face. We know he is on the Bondsmith path and that he is a trained soldier. Also when did he get Breath? He can't have gone personally so who did he send? Finally people would notice if he actually had the 5th heightening. It is not exactly subtle. Szeth was not sworn to the law of the kings he murdered only to his own lands. Nale is probably sworn to the law generally not to any specific region's. Nightblood is capable of killing a Herald. Permanently. Nale suspects that Szeth may follow a different path then he does. No. Odium has won the lands by right of conquest. Honor is dead and Cultivation is in hiding. As such because a god is the ultimate authority he must answer to Odium as he is currently the preeminent law.
  4. I think Dalinar handled things intelligently. He suspended judgement long enough to see the fallout. Weighed his options. Came up with a good plan. Then put it into execution. This is exactly what you should do when things go off the rails.

    Trell is Trell?

    No. Ack! Hoid is going to have internet eventually!
  6. This is also proof of his general cowardice because of him leaving the Oathpact.
  7. MeLaan is a pretty impressive actress with hundreds of years of practice at impersonation also we have this WoB. And MeLaan is exactly the servant I would send to help Hoid if I were Harmony.
  8. Yes. I am still waiting for Shallan to tame a few.
  9. If he was not accounted for during the evacuation of Narak they would have considered him dead. The probably also see Nazh as dead.

    Trell is Trell?

    Trell is clearly an ascendant Lift come to scadrial because they will not give up their waffle monopoly!
  11. A free will debate goody. I certainly have free will not sure about the rest of you.
  12. They could have a confirmed report of his death. This could be why Dalinar is so certain. From where do you come to this conclusion?
  13. Shadows of Self indicates that does not really matter.
  14. Can you ctrl f the name someone who has an ecopy?
  15. I was rereading Way of Kings and then I saw this From WoKs and then I though that is odd. Malan sounds a lot like Melaan. Wait a minute... Am I actually on to something?
  16. To (mis)quote another one of Sanderson's great characters. We don't make jokes about how much we hate Moash. We make feints. Unlike Ameram and to a greater degree Sadeas Moash's behavior and actions are somewhat sympathetic. Many of us have at least a passing familiarity with that kind of hopeless twisted anger that leads to regrettable actions. We see in Moash a lot of the things we hate most about ourselves and so we hit him with as much vitriol as possible in order to distance ourselves from him. That being said. I stand by my kill Moash over and over again for eternity posts. That guy is the worst. Even if he is just a little too much like me.
  17. It is also possible(just throwing out the theory) that general knowledge of the vastness of space could delay Voidspren as it would take them longer to get from Braize to Roshar via the CR.
  18. What would Artemis think of the Cosmere?
  19. Let us combine our powers to try and access the spiritual ideal of groaning.
  20. Maybe? I don't see how this is relevant. My point is that hemalurgy is by no means intuitive. To get anywhere without you either need spirit acquired knowledge or many many many years with a large group of test subjects that the southerners do not have.
  21. I am still uncertain how he is going to deal with the CR transferred people who are going to be soulcasting at him. Also we don't know all of the Bondsmith abilities.
  22. I personally think that it is more like airbending in avatar but yeah.
  23. So Honor, Oduim or some combination? Endowment Confirmed in some ways. Yes.
