Strenght gained from A Pewter can be stored in F Pewter. That's how tlr was so strong without being massive muscle wise

She is?!? 
I always pictured her as Indian.

This is how she's depicted in white sand graphic novel and in the coppermind

Hmm she does look indian here 

Truly amazing aluminium foil theory. Loved it but yeah i find it hard to believe that he would be around 16 metals and never realise he could use more than 1 of them unless u think he suppresses that info from his consious mind but that shouldn't stop him from unconsciously using the other metals like u think he uses aluminium or unconsciously use all the 16 attributes stored in the BoM. Also idt him storing fortune could have led to his parents and uncle dying. That's not how fortune works. But amazing Alfoil theory. Bravo 

Rogue kandra who was and still is loyal to tlr or a kandra that escaped tlr 

Also what does tES stand for ?

I think it is Khris.

Wax met her on the previous book, maybe she is the mysterious stranger from off world.

Khriss is black and has dreadlocks. She's never any glamor to change her appearance 

A new kandra or Nicki sauvage maybe

I think what Brandon is forecasting is Trell = Autonomy & the new magic system will be Autonomy's. But because that's obvious maybe that's not what he means.

2nd idea is we're getting Whimsy + India-based planet worldhopper org + whatever Whimsy's magic system is. I've heard a WoB that we're seeing a glimpse of Whimsy this book.

As cool as Sel's 3rd continent magic system would be to see, I feel like Harmony + Trell + Whimsy glimpse + threat of Odium + Sel magic system just makes for a really bonkers 140k book. 

The third empire could be India based

Can someone point me to where the 3rd continent on Sel has been talked about?

It is mentioned offhandedly in Khriss's essay on sel in arcanum unbounded

In BoM we see the Allomantic grenade with an assumed aluminum charge wipe Wax, and later wipe Marasi and Wayne of Allomantic metal reserves. Definitely not useless anymore 

I always assumed that was a chromium charge 

Omg aluminium and duralumin gnats might not be useless anymore. With the allomantic grenades they can maybe wipe out external metal reserves. 

Hmmm maybe it won't work like that tho. Wonder if allik would respect gnats too

Sylladin forever. I ship kal and syl and want them to have babies together 

i would be a Pulser ,ie, Allomantic cadmium , so that I could go to the future and live in a post scarcity economy and take the cure for aging and be immortal . I could take my loved ones with me too.

Or I would choose feruchemical gold

So that means Renarin might have access to three Surges?

Yep. Likely transformation 

If that happened , kaladin might have access to three surges. The additional surge probably being Division. 

Brando kinda rafoed this but see Regals are connected to odium alone and have only one surge , while radiants are connected to two shards and have 2 surges. So being enlightened by sja anat might give u three surges. Anti clockwise Surges are  discovered by the radiants first so maybe that's y renarin hasn't discovered he can use transformation yet 

Would be great to see kal use division but i think it's unlikely. The enlightenment process is very difficult for spren and  probably impossible for a spren that has already bonded someone 

I'm a pulsar. Yesssss . I can pulse my way centuries ahead to the future

Also can i point out that Gavilar said " I am the law " to nale who is 

A). The patron Herald of the Skybreakers.

B). A Skybreaker of the Fifth Ideal

C). The only Skybreaker of the Fifth Ideal in centuries. 

I think stormfaker is actually one of the Unmade , possibly Dai-Gonarthis.

It wanted to somehow turn Gavilar into a Void Herald but needed him to say something other than anything similar to the Radiant Ideals. 

Quote

“Give it to me,” Gavilar said. “Now. I need it.”

The Stormfather turned a shimmering head his direction. That was almost them.

“What, those?” Gavilar said. “Those were almost the words? A demand?”
 

Passionate. Power hungry words. Seems very voidish.

Maybe Unmade require different Words, different Ideals. 

Quote

A Herald... A Herald has died... No. I am not ready... The Oathpact... No. They mustn’t see. They mustn’t know...

I think it's an Unmade trying to be god , like BAM 2.0 . It wanted gav to become a new Herald and hold off Odium for atleast a few centuries  or such ( perhaps it thought taln was almost gonna give up ) during which time it's power could wax. It was afraid that now Odium would see it trying to usurp him and crush him.

Brando sent an email with  the written version of the prologue . SF's words aren't CAPITALIZED. So more evidence for stormfaker

Also @Honorless when does shalash say she wants to go to shinovar ? 

The similarity between both gavilar and rayse wanting eternal war to train the planet is something tho

We get Taravangian's origin story, kind of. I'm not sure if the new Death Rattle is a general warning against the Desolation, or something that will actually happen in the books.

Gavilar's last words make much more sense now.

I think the death rattle was referring to taravangian and gavilar standing before the map of Roshar and saying those exact words 

So we now know that Virtuousity is or was a Shard . If so could it's inverse , Depravity be one. I've been rooting for Depravity to be a Shard since i learned about them so i hope so. What do y'all think ? 

A). Who's the person the story is being told to. 

They understood what moons meant so that rules out scadrial.

They understood pigeon and elephant seal and didn't make a fuss about the iriali so that rules out Roshar.

Taldain is ruled out as they made no fuss on the movement of the sun.

Hmm but if it's being told in the future of the cosmere all bets are off although u would also expect some to know about the pollen seas then. 

B). Also it's an island world like FotS again. So Obrodai ? 

C). Are the spores investiture ? If so are the oceans enormous shard pools ? If someone can survive the spores can they go to the cognitive realm ? 

U might be able to use enhanced chromium to erase souls. Like souls are investiture too so an enhanced chromium leecher with duralumin could burn ur soul

Adolin will become highprince of fashion.

Tlr was so tired cause he was always busy canning food in the storage caches using F-steel
