what order are you do you think?

I would have liked more Jasnah chapters. I realy loved watching her interact with her fellow veristitalians people who are actually her intellectual equals. I also liked her interactions with Kaladin I hope we get more of those in S4. I also realy wished that Ialai Sadeas had gotten more screen time and had her motivations threshed out a bit more. She was one of the most powerful forces working against Dalinar's coalition and not only is she ineffective but we don't even know why she was apposing him in the first place!

and what order of radiance are you?

I think it has something to do with her will overpowering theirs.

We don't know what was on the other side when she came back (maybe she hired a ship) and I think that Kaladin would by reflex suck in stormlight once he sensed someone touching his soul. You also ignored my other assertion that the mind of the individual matters. Shallah's lightweaving doesn't stick to Kaladin long term even if he wants it to regardless of weather he uses stormlight.

Jasnah mentions that the thrill filled soldiers were much easier to soulcast then normal which implies that yes the mentality of the individual does matter. Last time she appeared on land not in what would probably be the ocean. Finally why would Kaladin not have stormlight he always make sure to. A radiant without stormlight is not like a soldier being without a weapon something that Kaladin makes sure never to be.

Kaladin as has been noted is incredibly resilient and highly invested so he would be basically impossible to soulcast. Also trying that kind of move would leave Jasnah stranded for quite some time in shadesmar potentially in the ocean.

Kaladin notes that the fused have trouble changing direction which implies that they move in straight lines so all Jasnah would have to do would be to would be to cut directly in front of where the used was going to be a much less difficult task. We see Shallahn summon a wall that does pretty much the same thing. The thugs both are discreet objects in Shadesmar pretty easy to pick out. What we are trying to see is if Jasnah can nail down the space in an area well enough for her to soulcast the air around Kaladin who we have seen can change directions on a dime. She was not pinpointing the Fused she was seeing the direction the fused were coming from by looking into shadesmar and seeing the spren run from them and their voidlight and just conjuring up the wall of oil once she juged their speed and direction. It was impressive timing but not any great feat of accuracy more of a precision thing again.

Blasphemer! Begone evil demon of common sense and trouble the faithfans no more!

I personally have a suspicion of Kadash as a stoneward. Thoughts?

Hmm Ive never realy considered this but does nightblood have an upper limit to how much evil he can destroy?

Yes but this is like cake cutting trying to get the piece with the cherry on top when the cherry is moving. Yes Jasnah has shown remarkable precision with her abilities but the paper was not moving we have no idea how accurate she is or if she is fast enough.

That is a good point that I did not consider if Kaladin is moving can Jasnah figure out what air he is in and make sure to soulcast that instead of something else?

I always thought that tripping people would be a stoneward thing like earthbenders in avatar making small alterations to the ground so that the enemy gets off balance. I am still not convinced that soulcasting enemies is a good idea in a protracted fight I think making a fortification or slight alteration to the battlefield like creating a bunch of smoke would be better.

We know that Odium has splintered one other shard and that there is another who "just wants to survive."

I always thought that Contemplation Compassion/Sympathy Judgement and Instruction would all make great shards

I thought that ruin was chaos and what kind of god has madness in its core makeup?

Any up to date cosmere fan knows that there are 16 shards of Adonalsium we have only met the 10 below. What are your theories about the identity of the remaining 6 shards? Devotion (Shattered ) Aona Sel Dominion (Shattered) Skai Sel Preservation (fused into Harmony ) Leras (later Sazed) Scadrial Ruin (fused into Harmony ) Ati (later Sazed) Scadrial Odium Rayse Braize Cultivation Unknown Roshar Honor (Shattered) Tanavast Roshar Endowment Edgli Nalthis Autonomy Bavadin Taldain Ambition (Shattered) Uli Da Threnody

It is abjectly horrible! Run while you still can!

That would be cool! I do wonder what the old radiants used for their off hand. Any thoughts?

Welcome!

Stone is not flexible and that form fitting leotard would weigh the same as an ordinary leotard I would expect the stone to crumble like sand as soon as Kaladin moved. To soulcast something out of the air Jasnah has to have the air push itself together as it forms a solid. If Kaladin understands this he can push back by lowering the pressure locally with adhesion.

Air is not that dense Jasnah would have to pack it together to form enough stone to soulcast it into enough stone to actually encumber Kaladin (conservation of mass does apply) meaning that Kaladin could push it away with adhesion leaving them both in vacuum if necessary. All of this is presaged on the idea of Kaladin not taking Jasnah out on the first shot.

Exactly don't think either option is practical. I have the utmost respect for Jasnah's awesomeness and I know that she is not a wuss but she has not spent many years on the front lines of battle or undergone intense training in combat (that we know of). We also don't know that she has her plate that is speculation.

Yes but those spren were enormous and the ancient radiants only made 10 of them despite the fact that more of them would clearly have been beneficial implying they work differently or more efficiently then the normal surge. Also Kaladin is faster stronger and better trained I assume that he could beet her off the draw.
