  1. So where do the the Returned return? Lightsong died in the sea, I assume he did not Return deep in the sea? Did Llarimar somehow manage to get his body out? I doubt that... Did he just appear on the ship? In some random location? Somewhere that was important to him? Do the Returned return to their own body or like the Heralds (& possibly Kelsier) do they get a new body? Their Divine Breath is a Splinter, so a new body is possible...
  2. funny quote, Ghostbloods symbol and guacamole? appreciation 8/10
  3. Keep Venture? No wait, there are windows there... Where the Kholinar guards under Azure get their food from? No wait That dining place where Adolin took Shallan?
  4. Transmogrify
  5. A month of silence is exactly what you deserved for asking that question Well, Elayne, I guess But I'm gay, so I'm might also be taking that question as Rand or Perrin, so... Hmm... speaking of, Rand or Perrin or Mat?
  6. Ah, the feeling that makes all teens antsy Fancy
  7. I'll take it In exchange I'll give you my lucky hat and it's a very special hat, mind you!
  8. @The Last Post Wins!!!!!
  9. Seems like Szeth (& Nightblood) have some cleaning to do (or rather he now has one more reason to cleanse the Shin of their false leaders)
  10. Agreed, it felt that this change was as unnecessary as and just as heroically neat.
  11. I think that's supposed to say Starsight, but I'll go with this. The Nightwatcher slaps you and turns away, disappearing back into the forest in disgust. 10/10 Granted, you are now the proud owner of a cheap pink plastic sword with polka dots with a misspelled 'Pokeymon' and a 'made in China' label. I wish for a knight in shining armour
  12. Why? If there are divisions/categorizations, if there are interactions than there are socio-political relationships. Ais' fanaticism and anger issues were downplayed in the GN, I feel. I would say that Part 3 was actually better than the latter third of the prose, but parts 1 & 2 were bad. Really bad. I don't remember seeing any female Sand Masters in Parts 2 & 3 either...
  13. I did mention the more interesting way he dealt with gender dynamics in Stormlight. This isn't really an issue that can just be put as a non-issue in any created world where the concept of gender exists. I'm not really looking for the answer to why Ais' gender was changed or even the in-world answer to the more strangely liberal societies of Taldain per the graphic novels (though I am going to throw this out: I was really hoping to never have to see a bikini armour warrior again ever, least of all in the Cosmere). I wanted to hear what other people had to say about the change and how it affected (or didn't) the story. Like I said, if the gender dynamics were kept and Ais' gender was changed, it would've made for a great story. It was such a big part of character interactions in the prose but in the GNs everything was suddenly conveniently progressive, except no women in the Diem. Sadly, the answer is probably that Brandon doesn't have time to write this, he just gave the source material, specified some changes and so on. Hence, the... less than stellar reception of the GNs. At least the Khriss - Kenton relationship was taken out, there are too few male-female friendships in fantasy. And Khriss' meeting with Nilto/Gevalden was much more impactful in the GN.
  14. As many times as it takes
  15. 374. Remember that if you get injured in the side of your stomach, you're totally fine. No need to worry! Just wrap it up or stitch it up yourself and be a BAMF! Then dramatically remove your jacket or coat or cowl or whatever to reveal the wrappings soaked in blood and how your fought (and won) while injured. This is a must-happen if the setting is western.
  16. Checked it on Reddit, thank you @teknopathetic! This raises a few interesting questions... Also found this WoB:
  17. Yup
  18. Hey! Denth isn't classist! And yup, that's Shezler Aradan Yomen Is it Danlan?
