[Poll] [Discuss] Did Jasnah do the right thing?
Frustration replied to Szeth Pancakes's topic in Stormlight Archive
First off it was not murder, they attacked first. Second, I would be intrested to see those options, there is only one I can think of and it would have resuted in several injuries, some of them rather severe.- 249 replies

Hoid likely is a Feruchemist, but we can't confirm that.

[Poll] [Discuss] Did Jasnah do the right thing?
Frustration replied to Szeth Pancakes's topic in Stormlight Archive
On the contrary it could kill her, stormlight would prevent it from happening, but so could medical attention for most wounds, that does not change the lethality of something. For the sake of the argument let's say your right, and she was bait, they bit, and got hooked, that's their own fault, no action of hers forced them to do that. They chose to attack, they get the consequences. Soulcasting part of an object is much harder than soulcasting all of it, opening just a pit would be really difficult on its own, accuratly predicting and opening a pit beneath multiple moving targets at once, would be just as difficult, if not more than just soulcasting them. And on top of that, making the pit big enough that they couldn't get out would be even more difficult.- 249 replies

Taln is a very problematic character...[Discuss]
Frustration replied to KaladinWorldsinger's topic in Stormlight Archive
Shalash to my recollection does not sneer at humans fighting, but rather at them worshiping the heralds. Nale tells others to question him, but refuses to question himself, that doesn't seem all that self aware. Kalak has guilt, but not from the torture, rather because he abandoned Taln, we can see as much from the prelude, something Taln never did, so can't have guilt from. Ishar is just plain crazy, nothing he does is even remotly natural. I don't recall Jezrien saying anything like that so I can't respond. -
...Booknerd? Yes, that was what they used to call me. I am here, yes. I have always been here. As my initial theory that gave me this frustration grows closer to being proven my fate hangs in the balance. If it is proven trrue I will lay down this shard, or if it is proven false, I will retain it.

They're text for me to, but when I posted them they were imagies, and they stayed images for a while.

With the possible exception of Nicrocil "Leaky" investiture isn't something you can hold in a spike. And I am unaware of any way to prevent any leaking from a spike outside of a body that doesn't involve it reaching the point hemalurgic decay stops.

[Poll] [Discuss] Did Jasnah do the right thing?
Frustration replied to Szeth Pancakes's topic in Stormlight Archive
MB Once again self defence is a legal claim, not a moral one. Did I say Lethal force in exchange for being in danger or being afraid for you life is fair, or did I say that Lethal force in exchange for Lethal force is fair? There is a reason there are three points Jasnah did not hunt them down, she went to a place and they jumped her, not the other way around. Once someone tries to kill you they lose all protections until that situation ends. Soulcasting a part of the ground underneath a moving individual is more difficult than you make it out, they are roughly equal routes, with the one Jasnah took having a far higher degree of success.- 249 replies

[Poll] [Discuss] Did Jasnah do the right thing?
Frustration replied to Szeth Pancakes's topic in Stormlight Archive
yep MB era 2 If the idea is she went out to punish them she had legal ability to make things far worse, and she took the least painful option. Three things If I sat still and did nothing a todddler could not kill me, if Jasnah and Nale did that they would die. These aren't children they are grown adults(or close there to in the girls case) and they know there are consequences for their actions They weren't trying to inconvinence or hurt, they were trying to kill. Lethal force as a baseline excpectation for Lethal force is fair. It should, but that doesn't mean it can never be used. Ideally no one should ever have to kill anyone.- 249 replies

Dream is finally free. Also Sam messed up, like big time, I don't think I've ever seen C!Techno so mad. I mean really you watched this man delete countries, and decide it's a good idea to kill his friends?

A person with a knife is still a threat to a radiant, not much of one, but neither is the person with a knife to the person with a gun. Whether she could have killed Nale is irrelivent, she attacked him and he responded.- 249 replies

Frustration replied to Szeth Pancakes's topic in Stormlight Archive
If someone breaks into my house and stands on the other end of my hallway with a knife while I have a gun, there is only one of us that walks away but I'm still free on self defense. Yes, completly justified. She stole, and got arrested, She attacked on officer of law and got killed because of it.- 249 replies

So why are you ok with the other heralds being broken in magical ways but not Taln? -

The future of shards. How will it all end?
Frustration replied to Vin(Diesel)'s topic in Cosmere Discussion
A few problems with this Nightblood does not destroy investiture, it gets recycled. Everything is investiture, so that would require the destruction of everything.- 16 replies

[Poll] [Discuss] Did Jasnah do the right thing?
Frustration replied to Szeth Pancakes's topic in Stormlight Archive
This is getting pretty close to blaming a girl for, eh certain crimes by saying she shouldn't have been wearing a particular kind of dress. In the US under self defense you have committed no crime. That is true, and legally one might look at that, however morally I think it was still within her right. Someone with better knowledge may correct me, but I'm pretty sure First degree murder requires that you plan to kill the specific individual that you did. I think it's pretty clear that no one would have died, as the Philosophy lesson could not have taken place I will concede that point. Well first off yes you are completely moral, you have no responsibility to add precautions against a crime happening, if a crime is committed in this situation guilt lies solely with the one who committed it. I will have to look into this "entrapment" you speak of, I have never heard that term before. MB era 2 Also I would like to point out the mercy Jasnah showed, she could have trapped them, given them to Taravangian, and convinced him to leave them out in the Highstorm as an example. She could have tortured them, or killed them slowly, instead she gave each one an instant and painless death.- 249 replies
