  1. All the maps are available on the Coppermind But here you go: That's the old map you got. These up there came with the 10th Anniversary Edition Some Mistborn maps: The large green area in 5th Octant is the Village Some maps of the Shattered Plains you'd have missed if you're listening to the audiobooks: Other maps of Roshar: Here's a map of T'Telir, the Hallandren capital:
  2. Finally, a group worthy of my gaze *squints*
  3. And soon(-ish) we'll get the names of all the associated true spren as well I wonder if we'll get similar info on the Voidbinding Orders as well eventually. I hope the Voidbinding Orders are just as distinct and we'll be able to sort ourselves by our worst just as we did by our best here
  4. And since he didn't have a short story set on Nalthis, we didn't get an essay or a system chart (till later) No, there haven't been any updates on a Nalthis essay since then, afaik. The most we have is this: Brandon did say this on Reddit: but we haven't heard on that since. But then again, Brandon said we'd get the Nalthian star chart eventually and we did, out of nowhere, get it from Isaac on his Instagram, so here's hopin'.
  5. After understanding the strength of Compounders in era 2, a Fullborn like the Lord Ruler dying like that does seem anti-climactic in retrospect What happened was a fluke, partly engineered by both Ruin (who wanted to be free, via his whisperings to those pierced by metal, both TLR & Vin) & Preservation (who wanted Vin to be their successor, via the Mists)
  6. "lines of light, like framework" I would say that's different, I think that's Spiritual Tension+Adhesion because it matches with the rest of things he's doing in the vision, keeping his part of the vision whole, plus the mechanics matches up with what he did at Taln's temple in Thaylenah. He seems to be using it to prevent injury and as makeshift bracer for better strength & grip As for the problems with secondary spren theory: The Nahel Bond is between the Radiant and the high spren; lack of any indication that Shardplates are made of spren; how would one form Shardplate if the requisite secondary spren aren't near, would the Bond(s) be with the same minor spren every time or new ones, how would either work? I'm not against this theory, mind you but a lot of people are. Investiture mechanics aside, I think the secondary spren theory is narratively viable. The scenes where Kaladin & Dalinar were surrounded by Windspren & Gloryspren were powerful and both approaching their respective Ideals where they should be able to summon Shardplate (assuming Bondsmiths can or usually do) I've never been asked to dismantle the problems with secondary spren theory, only what the problems were, but I'll see if I can do it. Let's see... The high spren itself transforms into Shardblade (or spear or fork) so Shardplate is unlikely to be formed from the body of the high spren. That doesn't preclude Shardplate from being formed of solid Investiture or indeed, minor spren We've seen temporary Bonds with Aviar & white sand lichen, it stands to reason that minor spren could do something similar. We already know that minor spren can be Bonded. A Spiritual Bond might be able to overcome the problem of distance but the thing is that Shardplate being summonable in all situations isn't a prerequisite.
  7. Welcome to the Shard! I'm from India too, mate The initials of the titles are suspected to be not incidental, we are having fun guessing the next one
  8. the Elsecaller info took everyone by surprise
  9. Oh hey there, welcome to the Shard! Yeah, we all did. Got Willshaper as my top 3. I don't think that's why they're called Willshapers though, mate
  10. Yeah, the secondary spren form shardplate is a popular theory right now (Windspren for Windrunners, Gloryspren for Bondsmiths) but there are problems with it. Also, huh I didn't notice that pulling The Stormfather closer to the Physical made the Thrill withdraw for a sec there, interesting. I don't think that we have confirmation that what Dalinar used was a Shardblade The second instance, in the vision with Venli, I think that was a manifestation of the Surge of Tension
  11. Hey, that was a wonderful post :)

  12. Huh, didn't look at it that way, that makes sense I've heard the fairness does not always mean equality quote, but this was really well-put & down-to-earth
  13. I like them For the Third, how about "I will hold myself to the same standards that I hold others"
  14. Hmm, maybe? They are supposed to be Investiture that staples your Cognitive Shadow to your body and this WoB might suggest that they might become kinetic Investiture immediately upon release: So it'd be tricky, as you'd need to unstick the Cognitive Shadow+Splinter of Endowment from the Physical body but given the example of imperfect Cognitive Shadow sticking, and the Heralds & the Fused, I think this might just be possible
  15. This is still strong, I think
  16. It was so good to know more of Dustbringers, Truthwatchers, Elsecallers and Willshapers (we all got the Stonewards) People mostly got the Radiant Orders that they usually got on other Radiant quizzes, with the above mentioned Orders being the exceptions as we just got the new info on them. I usually got Elsecaller, Skybreaker & Lightweaver on the quizzes Well, I still got Lightweaver, but Truthwatcher and Willshaper were higher. Congrats to @ChickenLiberty whose quiz predicted the latter way ahead of time!
  17. Your Willshaper Oaths would fit Dustbringers quite well
  18. I'd say Katara is an Edgedancer too
  19. Why wouldn't the Vo-Dari discover them over thousands of years though, or Agaris tell them? What would said abilities even be?
  20. Rowling ended up doing a lot of good for transgenders

    Did she want to? Hehehe, nope! 

    But she did

    Hahahahahahaha!

    1. Friendshipspren

      Friendshipspren

      Yep. Nothing like a celebrity to campaign a cause. And there really is no such thing as bad publicity. I seriously didn't expect this from Rowling tho. I mean she seems so empathetic and always doing that retcon stuff. Ah well kek
