Frustration

*Sees acceptance Tom Bombadil* Ok, this guys cool.

woosh.

I have the stubborn High ground!

Ever heared of Turin Turambar? Or read the Tale of Aaragorn and Arwen? When was the last time you sat down and actually made a concentrated effort to change yourself?

They more than likely are not "This is Impossible" -Stormfather WoBs

Yo, Shai vs Hoid, Forgey battle! I must have this

Not that they don't but other races have more, name a hobbit with more pride than Boromir More greed than Thorin, or could actually use the ring in the same capacity Gandalf could. But with the distraction, not the ring. Sauron has the strong force, fighting is feutile, the only way to actually defeat him by force would be to use the ring and that would only leave them with another Dark Lord. If they had to fight their way through they had already lost. He died to his own action, that wasn't no reason. It is devolving a little bit into that. Not that I mind. Gaotona was a bit of a non-character, he had one moment where he actually ment something, but eh, not enough to justify even a novella for him.

Because of two main reasons, Hobbits don't have as many weakness's to exploit Elves/Men - pride Dwarves - Greed And Gandalf for his desire to do good. and second off Sauron ignored Hobbits until the tail end of the Third age so he never put any thought into corrupting them when he made the rings. Because Eagles are insanely obvious, Sauron has a Pilatir crows and Fellbeasts, if they used Eagles they would be trivially easy to find. Evil defeats Evil for a philisophical and narrative reason. for a logical one, you would be surprised how often dumb things have changed the course of history. Tree people who haven't done anything in litterally thousands of years, and if Merry and Pippin hadn't been there wouldn't have done anything. And? It solved everything they were trying to do, probably a good ending, now setup and tension have a lot to do with it, but yes.

And the differnce? That is enough to make it good? Without that one disision the book would be bad? Really? Doesn't overly like them after either.

Wait a few years and read it again. Every time I've read it, and as I've grown older I've understood more, and my complete awe of Tolkien grows. No most deffinetly not, but aside from it being an older form of writing it holds up with the best of today. Now I'll admit its heavy reading, it isn't something you sit down for in an afternoon, but it's worth it. Nale is still the same person before and after, all that's changed is he picked a side. Did she really?

Brandon's writing style is more agreeable, but saying he's better is like saying a spotlight is brighter than the sun because it's all you can see. Pharoh ants can make a nest between two peices of paper. did you change gaining this information? Eh, I don't think animosity was ever felt.

No, we haven't He's better than any we've had since, using my first amandment right here, He Was The Best. Good songs. Every. Single. One. That's not true, Valinor being Valinar Morgothal being Morgoth That one Giant Dragon quite obviously being Ancalagon the Black The Spine being the Misty Mountains Isenstar being Isenguard. That one tower being Orthanc Ra'zac being standins for the Ringwraiths The Grey Folk being the Vallar The list goes on. Did Nale actually change? Or was he the same person with different information? Same exact person, same personality, no change.

Ah yes, why would priest be studing odly phrophetic words that dying people speak. You know better question. Why wouldn't people be studing it?

Those are, DARK for ten year olds. like really, some DC is light and happy, but there are series and issues that no ten year olds should be reading. Those are the best ones. Did you just- @Channelknight Fadran Are you seeing this? LoTR is by far and away the best Fantasy series out there, it's hard to read don't get me wrong, but we still have yet to reach Tolkien's level of mastery of the genre. No worldbuilding has yet to match his, His story was so dominate people are still stealing it. *cough* Eragon *cough* Name an actual arc in Edgedanncer.

That's his backstory, that all happens in the first chapter or so, what's his arc? Like what? Yes. No, he's just a fun character no change needed. change would make him worse. I much prefer static characters yes. Far more realistic, far more action, far more fun. Oh it's great the first time, once you reread it's bad.

wasn't it thiry-one?

now that's just not true. What's Batman's arc? Or Supermans? James bond? Hoid? There are dozens and they are among the most beloved and widely adored characters of all time. Character is the hardest climax to make and the least fullfilling, and it's a one time thing, try rereading OB it's dry as sand.

How on earth do they get to the CR? Don't need any training to kill with shards, and how many marines can shoot an incoming Missile? Or in better percpective how many musketeers could shoot a cannonball in flight? Long supply line for people without the ability to manifest objects. Honorblades will still work in the CR, and Scadrial can only has one entry point to the CR, cut that off and their forces in the CR are stranded and will starve to death. Simply fly Elsecallers over and seize the perpendicularity and hole yourself up until the toops in the CR starve or surrender and then it's yours for good. The unarmed airships? the ones that couldn't fly if they carried enough fire power to actually be a problem and can simply be cut in half and fall to their death? And there is no need tto fall from the stratosphere and even if you did simple canceling all previous lashings and lashing yourself to the side prevents all fall damage. Not enough Odium could, Stormfather can, and Syl proves that young spren are just as effective. Not every Scadrian can snap, even with Preservation activly increasing the ability of metalborn to achieve power via snapping only 16% of the population had the power, and that was before allomancy became so diluted. What says halfshards are useless? Painrails can be used at range No it won't the amount of metalborn is set snapping has been changed if they have the power they will automatically snap. I don't care how many rounds someone in Japan has, they aren't hitting me. Radiants don't need any skill to be leathal with shards, and thunderclast need even less. No they can't snapping has changed, everyone that can has already snapped.

"I- yes." If you understood what just happened you wouldn't say that.

Brother Tomad sighed. "Very well, if you want this done quickly, we'll get it over with." "When the Creator sent human souls to this universe Droit found them divided, male and female, two sides of the same whole. We gather here today to join togather in one man and woman, to compliment and complete one another. With the comision and permission of the Patriarch and as the acting-Bishop of Medahar I bind you together for time and all eternity. One Mind, One Heart, One Soul." They are one already Brother Tomad thought, how unfortunate that it drives them apart, hating what is so similar about the other.

Dalinar repeatedly sent people flying with swings from them, that force will kill.

@Channelknight Fadran I know you have unrealeased chapters. Also I may or may not have tried to do @fadran

Vital means neccesary which it isn't. I would far rather see Shai than an ametuer forger.

Well you could say that one can be acquired and one is inate Or just not directly compare them. Though as an intresting consequence of how Fragments work nations would focus on defending the fragments points, how does this tie into the world?

Is the distinction between external and internal really necessary?
