  1. Or maybe his mind is just better suited to this kind of thing because of his nature/experiences as a mortal?
  2. Those two ideas are incompatible. If might makes right then no one is going to support or manage an ineffective king. A single authority is only possible if people value the system more then their short term interests. Eventually you are going to have one or more stupid people in power. Sadeas's way of thinking indicates that you should have some kind of free for all that eradicates opposition but this will weaken Alethkar as a whole. I was simplistic in stating that Sadeas "lost" and "Dalinar" won. In politics things are rarely that clean cut. I will say that Dalinar maintained position at the cost of a short term advantage. Sadeas won a short term advantage but also clearly revealed the transactional nature of his own alliances. Dalinar demonstrated that he was trustworthy at the cost of a shardblade. Considering the backstabbing nature of the Alethi court that is huge. Sadeas demonstrated that he will forgo anything to get what he wants. He strait up told Adolin that he was looking to a civil war in chapter 50 of WoR.
  3. Something like that. You send a box to braize it grabs some spren(maybe it is made of aluminum?) and they come back.
  4. I am glad we are getting a few more Radiants? 10 people fighting against everyone on the continent seemed a bit extreme. So far we know about an unnamed Dustbringer, a Lightweaver and a new Edgedancer named Godeki(I don't know the spelling). How many more of these do you think we will be getting, from what orders, and at what ideals?
  5. I did not know I needed to hear this today. But I did.
  6. A megalomaniac undergoing an existential crisis. Lovely for everyone around them.
  7. Voidlight seems sticky somehow. I don't think obtaining it is that simple. Otherwise you could use the everstorm to get some. I think that they call it that to avoid suspicion if they mention something to the wrong person. Nothing suspicious about boxes after all. He might find some kind of idiot who is willing. Or it might be a split second thing. Or maybe the "box" is more like a trap that he sends to braize grabs something and comes back. Yes. I think so. I doubt he would have sat things out too far. I think it more likely he was just a megalomaniac. Yeah. Good as he sees it. He is a "great man." He also really wanted to be radiant.
  8. Maybe some kind of transportation fabrail? He is a dynasty founder. One of those "great men" of history. They were not exactly known for their steadiness, dependability as spouses or generosity to others.
  9. Make sure that goes into the footnote of the arcanum!
  10. Cultivation has a secret magic system not to mention her old magic system.
  11. Sorry I mixed groups and parts. I think it likely that Shallan group two. Lirin probably is a minor part one unless it is Moash a prospect I hate.
  12. Are we permitted to discuss the publicly released chapters in the RoW spoiler section? (I assume yes because we are already doing so frequently)
  13. All of this happens in Harthstone same as chapter 1. This could be before they split up.
  14. They just came out. 121 if I remember correctly. Maybe? I don't think so. He might be ferrying it back to her and just letter her know who to give it to if something happens to him. You don't want Lift just giving it to the first guy she meets and the thing getting lost. We currently have chapter 1. New chapters will come every Tuesday .
  15. Just read it. Some great Navani PoV. We already had chap 1 though.
  16. From what I read in news stories it is often some kind of real or perceived harassment(physical, verbal, economic and so on) that leads to some kind of social isolation. You stop interacting with friends and family and eventually they contact you and offer a quick and violent solution to your problems. For me personally it would probably be some kind of isolation. I get dropped in a super unfamiliar environment with no resources to fall back on. Some people take me in and I can't help but start to sympathize. They set me up and all they ask in return is pass on a bunch of harmless information...
  17. Poor Navani. Also good for you Navani! You never let him defeat you.
  18. Fabrials do always include metal parts. Shardblades can be any shape but must be metal. Metal is definitely important cosmere wide.
  19. We know that some of the five scholars did not her personally. Still it was probably an over site. I am more interesting in the new Edgedancer Godeki? Also F Moash. What was Shallan doing? That fabrail sounds scary.
  20. I believe so.
  21. I believe so.
  22. I thought that was odd too. You posted several times though.
  23. No soil. Most earth plants can't grow on rock or survive highstorms.
