  1. We know that the battle between Leshwi and Kaladin happened and that Leshwi came more or less direct from there.
  2. Possibly they got in each others way. We don't know if you can tag team in the spiritual realm.
  3. Exactly. Adolin even talks to his blade. The fact that it occasionally does weird things he will probably take in stride.
  4. Unlike us Adolin only experiences Maya's actions during a few moments with a lot of adrenaline. He probably just attributes it to "shardblades are special" rather anything unique or important having to do with their bond.
  5. That is not how alters work. Sometimes. Veil does not seem to have Shallan's trauma.
  6. That is not true. Veil is perfectly capable of subtlety. She went undercover for months. Also alternate personas don't work like that. Veil is just a more outgoing and uninhibited person then Shallan.
  7. They use many of the same principles. I would say they are about as similar as electrical and combustion engines. They do similar things based on some similar principles at the mechanical level but the actual methodology is quite different.
  8. That was Radiant actually. I think everyone is going to get their quest assignments soon. Traditional bar scene where the different adventurers compare notes and catch up with each other followed by "the thing!" I very much wish we knew what "the thing!" is. Leshwi seems to have some idea.
  9. True. Contrary to the opinion of ever side character in a comedy there really is no way to tell without asking.
  10. Rosharans are taller then average due to low gravity. People from other worlds will be shorter.
  11. I mean Veil at least seems well aware of the attractiveness of the women around her.
  12. Lift's interlude.
  13. Dalinar Jasnah Adolin. Good luck finding her. Same OK I grant you that. Who Syl does not know. Anyway he probably is intimidated by Kaladin. He is just Iyatil's henchmen. Don't count. Is probably terrified.
  14. Some other magic system perhaps? Maybe savathood in one of the surges? I mean. He is still the Blackthorn.
  15. No it is not. He is still doing final edits.
  16. OK. Pull myself together. So Rock is going off to his Novella. Roshar's mental health system is completely ineffective. Dalinar has not published yet. Jasnah seems to be doing her job fairly well. Kaladin needs to figure out himself. Cord has shardplate! Kaladin should absolutely date Dakhnah.
  17. Sobbing.
  18. True but I believe we have confirmation that scadrial does have 16 as its "important number" for whatever reason.
  19. Silver is the other component of electrum. Brandon initially had it in place of tin in the metalic arts. He also confirmed in WoB that silver does stuff. It might just relate to how the world was put together. I don't know if Preservation is specifically associated with 16. He may have just taken advantage of that in his sign. It is worth noting that Harmony is also associated with 16 and that Ruin's magic system, hemalurgy, follows the same number.
  20. Because it has other cosmere properties most notably on Threnody.
  21. Perhaps. In that case I think we will have some perspective that will observe actions taken by Leshwi. IE maybe Lirin sees a fight that she leads. Also as I understand it Venli was the "epilogue" of the book Brandon did not write.
  22. Pathfinder and I argued about this extensively. I personally see no reason why at Theylen field she could not have simply picked up all ten stones or that she simply keeps a sampling of all ten on her at all times these days in case of emergency. Also during the perpendicularity things get kind of weird.
  23. Well let us examine this in the context of Lucretius's javelin argument. If you stand on the edge of the cosmere (in shadesmar) and throw a javelin either you will hit some kind of wall or your javelin will keep going forever. I do think some kind of wall could exist but I suppose the CR being circular is an equally valid explanation.
