Frustration

Not really no. As for why it matters, you understand what a bondsmith is capable of right?

When did she ask herself "Should I do this?"

Tell me something, Is RoW a story where Navani asks herself "can I do this?" or "should I do this?" ?

Dalinar was already on the path to Uniting Navani wasn't and Bonsmiths MUST be held to a high degree of responsibility, especially with Honor dead. That doesn't prove anything, the only evidence they had was Navani likes fabrials, Urithiru is a fabrial, perfect match. That's not foreshadowing.

@Aspiring Writer can I get an 'it' on the gender option? I don't know but I can't ever get 'they' to be singular. Whenever I imagine the Sibling I just imagine a guy, knid of like a bald Sazed.

I wouldn't say it like that, my skin is the border of me, but my heart isn't made out of it. Era two takes place after SA 5 so Hoid has a spren by that time and SotD 2

@BenduLuke We have no idea what tapping aluminum would do, so you can't say it will autoheal to what you were when you stored it. And where in the article does it say that identity is always changing.

Queen Fen was braught on by the Starfall vision, I won't say your wrong with this one, but I don't recall Navani being that helpful. On the Azish her letter was important but it was far from the only thing that got them to join, The Recreance vision, Lift and Dalinar's precence all were major contributions @Infinitysliver the Stormfather was told to find a Bondsmith @Lanaya In order The bridgecrews were not already united, they only cared for themselves. Teft did not make any decisions, nor did he do anything to unify. The Stew was Kaladin's idea You seem to think that I refuse to see the other side when the truth is I find your arguments inadequet to sway me.

Simple, Dalinar tried. Who did Navani try to Unify? The closest thing you could say is artifabrians but she didn't care about the people just the information, if she had known about the tuning forks I doubt she would have lost any sleep over the Theylan Atifabrian guild. The Stormfather would have bonded Dalinar without the Everstorm because Honor told him to, he did not need to be threatened. On Navani doing Dalinar's work, what did Navani actually do? What did she specifically do to help Dalinar other than being there?

OB epilouge

Fused are never said to be Voidbinding

Who took inititive in that situation? Who started that? Who actually did anything to make it happen? Dalinar Her patronage of artifabrians is not evidence for being a good Bondsmith Yes. As I've said before I don't know if it's Dalinar or someone near him, but whoever it is they get the credit. So they would keep people with opposing intrests from fighitng and establish order in times of conflict? And on top of this it does not say putting themselves in charge. Kaladin. But who actually did the job? Dalinar had a support staff but he was the one who did the work. This says more about the average intelegence of the fused than it does about Navani How is it wrong? Who does she unify that wasn't already on the same team? So far the arguments in her favor are: "She's smart, and she's good at being in charge" That isn't even close to enough. The Sibling itself on the verge of being killed still almost refused her. That should tell us something. Her responce to being called unworthy is just "No I'm not" It's structured to give a call back to Gavilar but she never actually became worthy of being a bondsmith.

Being a leader is the same as being a Unifier, the only times you mention she worked with a preestablished group that would have been on the same team without her. Also Navani did nothing for discovering Urithiru that was mostly Jasnah. Anyone who isn't exemplary is unworthy, Think about it this way, if I had bondsmith powers I could take your connections to everyone you know, for all intents and purposes I would become you to them, they would have no special connection to you. To even your closest friends and family you would be no more than a stranger they would feel nothing towards you. Your friends wouldn't look twice in your direction, I would uterly and totally replace you in their lives, and there would be nothing you could do about it. Now tell me, who do you think should have that kind of power? Journey before Destination, the important thing is that he tried. When does she manage to get people who wouldn't work together to do so? You can't even say Raboniel since it was Raboniel, not Navani that made that situation work. Restoring the Siblings Rhythm of LIght isn't good enough, and on Rlain, even if it doesn't come naturally to him he does it, that's the important thing, he tries. She's smart but she didn't discover it, it wasn't even a close thing Gavilar had it almost eight years before she did.

You're moving the goalpost she was in charge, not through any merit of her own, she just had deep pockets, so no she does not get credit, (except for Warlight) and she was not a unifier. As for a scene try the prolouge, she's telling people what to do, and who is she unifying? No one, everyone was already on the same team, and would have been without her. Now let's look at Dalinar, he unified the Nations who have been at war with each other for years, and does it without paying, bribing, threatening concuring or other uses of Coersion, that is the mark of a Bondsmith.

Being in charge isn't unifying. Kaladin didn't unify Bridge four because he was in charge, he unified them by making them want to be there, making them care about each other, that is unity, not telling people what to do.

How's this Navani spent the entirety of Rhythm of War asking wether or not she could, not wether or not she should. That is a bad precedent for anyone with that kind of power.

Well the majority of people are not worthy of Bondsmith powers in any degree so if someone is worthy they need to show that, so it should be proven not assumed

The burden is on you to prove that she is worthy.

Source? Aluminum removes foriegn investiture it doesn't add, Hemalurgy removes that part of the spiritweb how does aluminum fix that?

We only have one known method of making Anti-light, so I think it's safe to assume that that is how Gavilar got his. There is no method of making Voidlight without Odium, and the only way that Navani can get it is via the Rhythm of Prayer However Gavilar was able to get some and make Anti-Voidlight without the Rhythm of Prayer while Taln still held, so you can't even amek the case that what she did was harder. Two people made the T.V. at about the same time yet you can only name Philo T. Farmswoth, why? Becasue he did it first.

How did Gavilar get it if the process they used was not reproduceable?

This isn't about Navani being female I don't know if it is Gavilar or someone else but his is the only name I have. Whether or not they understand what they made is irrelevant, whoever did it first deserves the credit. Navani did not discover Anti-light and doesn't get the credit for it.

I said somewhat

What did she do to become worthy of one of if not the most dangerous powersets in the entire cosmere. The ability to rip apart peoples souls, basically mind control etc Elon musk is not credited with the creation of the car, because someone else did that first, just because Navani did something doesn't mean she discovered it, Gavilar or someone close to him gets the credit, not her.
