  1. there is minimal difference, and neither term is mutually exclusive. But Brandon does, he might put a twist on it, but he does follow tropes. Are you saying he is incapable of writing with a tone of dread? Or that his overall tone prevents it. Or that he isn't allowed to?
  2. Would be funnier if it was Gandalf-son-son-Illuvitar, but less people would get that.
  3. She wishes to meet you near the Coalition council room. I can guide you there.
  4. Happy Fourth of July!!!!!

  5. Huh, that's interesting, you would think that if Bondsmiths got them they all would. I don't think Jasnah is close enough to anyone to get squires to start with. Though, Willshapers focus on individuality, might mean they don't.
  6. https://youtu.be/iLwndJvxrMM He talks about this flail, that has another flail, on the other end of the staff. Even I looked at that and immediately thought it was stupid. But the Batwoman tv show obviously disagrees.
  7. Well how they are created probably has a lot if not all to do with it, it is defined ironically by autonomy. Lower case a there
  8. I think the reason the nodes where important is that they where what was generating the feild, the little glass spheres with the pillar inside. Edit: this is the second longest thread in the Cosmere discussion.
  9. Brother Tomad had just finished listening to confessions for the day when a young acolyte told him Father Arinor had called. Brother Tomad ran as fast as he could, before shoving the doors to the infirmary open, and rushing to the Bishop's bedside. "Father Arinor, you... you wanted to speak with me." The old man turned to look at him, the plauge had been horrible on him, his skin was discolored, he had a large bulge above one eye, and there were places one could see through his cheek. "Brother Tomad," he wheezed. "I have sent a letter to the Archbishop, he will be here within a fortnight, I am certain he will make you Bishop." "But Father, you are still alive." "I doubt I will survive until morning, now be quiet I have something I wish to say. I have but one shame in life, something I want you to rectify. Brother I beg you, denounce the murders, and violence of the nobility, call them to repent, and push for their excommunication if they do not." "I, father?" "Please I beg of you." Brother Tomad stayed by the Bishop's bed, agreeing to his requests, until he died in the early morning.
  10. The Beyond isn't canon though. It also isn't non-canon, but you see the problem.
  11. We don't have an explanation, but the Cultivation's influence theory in my signature has an idea.
  12. Perhaps, but we also know that they likely do not know everything about Atium spikes.
  13. well if it's all of the non-power stuff like strength, inteligence, mental/emotional fortitude etc, then it can still be powerful while being sort of "weak" but that's just one way it could work out.
  14. It never mentions some orders just that it did hapen
  15. We don't have a very clear idea of what Lerasium does hemalurgically either. It could be just as weak compared to Atium as Atium is to it in allomancy
  16. Now this is intresting, most of us have been doing the 4*4 is sixteen, or 2*2*4 is sixteen. 4^2 is something I haven't seen, that could be very inresting how that could be used to break down into shards. What's the fourth? to my knowledge there are only three.
  17. Some are some are not, in this context, a slave is a position, with a certain set wage, which is half of what non-citizen's (the non-slaves of the Bridgecrews) make, which is half of what a citizen would make, etc.
  18. Well for starters Yesteel would have made an army with type IV biocromatic entity weapons to anihalate everything. Well historically war has been a man's responsibility, so the deaths of women and children as being civilions was seen as worse. As well as other reasons, notions of male self-sacrifice, and female and child purity etc.
  19. Every order has squires, and aparently it was common practice for Radiants to lend plate
  20. "The unhoy offspring of paralysis and cancer." -Shad 2021
  21. well I think wich of you two is right comes down to Moash, and I could see it being both ways, whichever it is though, we won't know for certain until later. Slightly related note, I think some people are over-ephisising Odium's role in this, we've seen his effect is incomplete at best, OB's "why do you still hurt" and all that
  22. Uniqueness isn't what makes them special, it's the connection to the Shards, the shear amount of power they can use. Being Unique is a side effect of that.
  23. She wants to speak wth you about the Singer captured in Alethkar, I have offered to mediate, but I don't think she trusts me. Though she is more than wiling to use me when it suits her, typical human.
  24. The Queen of Alethkar.
  25. The gems can obviously support an entire village, so I don't think that's a problem Why would that not work? It uses the same principles we have been shown operate, if the smaller gem moves multiple times further, it can be used to pull the larger gem, even if the gain is increadibly small it will be self sustaining. I tink you are too focused on real world physics here, the cages, are obviously secure enough, the conectio beam can be stable enough, gems can clearly handle that stress, and it's really cool on top of that, why would it not work? No, there is nothing physically ataching them, if I need to slow it down I add resistence, so excess force goes to moving my plane, instead of making it go faster.
