  1. It's possible, I think if the Alethi had tried to destroy the Parshendi Venli would just have given them stormform instantly and they'd have created the Everstorm before Rlain could be sent as a spy and joined bridge four, but it's possible. As @Elegy said the Everything being capitalized already implies he want to be king of the all cosmere so the part about him trying to become Adonalsium should still hold.
  2. I see your point, and it's probably the reason Navani called it Rhythm of Science, still science seems incomplete without invention, it's conceivable what I'm is just larger than what most people would call science, which would probably be Honour+Cultivation+Invention
  3. Buildings on fire were essentially the same as exploding buildings, indeed. "Oh yes, I remember, we were helped by an elscaller and a pulser, Byron if I recall correctly? He was in the guild building last time I saw it, is he alright?"
  4. Yeah, I'm putting that one on "Rlain is special", he has to be of he is the Bridger of Minds
  5. The first or both?
  6. Some people go into mateform just because they like it (or because it's part of the job for one Listener of the Council) I remember Eshonai dispited people who did Wait, what? Renarin has a crush on Rlain? When was it implied? And where is it implied Rlain is gay in mateform? I remember he said weird thing happened when he was in mateform, but he also felt weird in when he first got into warform (and was the only one to) so I'd be extremely disappointed if it was just "I find males hot" Dullform was confirmed not to be asexual
  7. Which is a part of science. But you're right it's possible Brandon would see things differently
  8. So, we've been calling the combination of Odium and Honour War because it's the name of it's rhythm, there's a few reasons it could be wrong. Firstly Navani called the rhythm of the tower "Rhythm of Science" and it's almost impossible Honour+Cultivation would be Science, Science would be composed of at least Cultviation and Invention, of course it could just be that Navani's instincts are not as good as Raboniel's. Every one seems to disagrae with me on that point, which mean Brandon probably does to. Secondly, the Rhythm used by Venli to move Voidlight, which should therefore be the pure tone of Odium, is called "Rhythm of prayers" (chapter 67) Thirdly, these two WoBs If we consider there's one intent per rhythm, this makes no rusting sense. The closest we can get would be that, while Sazed is in control, it's possible for harmony (or at least one of it's half) to be transformed in some kind of anti-shard and this possibility still mean there are at least two possibility, four if we accept the Preservation+anti-Ruin and Ruin+anti-Preservation ones (by the way, I suggest calling them Preservation - Ruin and Ruin - Preservation, like in Preservation minus Ruin) Actually, Harmony being Preservation - Ruin would explain why Preservation and Ruin could act while together and why Sazed said he was searching for "Someone who embodies both Preservation and Ruin. A … sword, you might say, who can both protect and kill" like he did not embody both Preservation and Ruin Anyway, back to the topic of Odium+Honour, even of the 'normal' way to fuse them could indeed be War, it seems there are between two and three other possibilities Links to theories in the answers 1. @Honorless giving another interpretation of how two shards can fuse in different way 2. @Elegy saying why War would more likely be Dominion + Odium, the same argument seems to work for War = Dominion + Ruin and War = Dominion + Ruin + Odium
  9. What's that movie?
  10. Alanis needed emotional support, Folorian had no idea how to give it, he remembered some psychologist advised having the patient talk about what happen could help, and he really wanted to know what had happened to the guild and that other place she was talking about “You said three? I know of the guild and this place -which by the way was another guild unless I’m mistaken, but what was the third?” @Rushu42@Random Bystander
  11. The Nahel bound has been confirmed not to be 1:1 It's still possible they'll will be fused together. Also, do we have any idea why the word "Nahel" is as asymmetric as a five letter word can be? I mean it the Rosaran word for "the bond to divinity" and everything else in the orders is symmetric There's basically no way War won't exist at some point in SA indeed
  12. Some are holding their knifes like hemalurgic spikes, it's... weird (nice one though)
  13. "More often than in most cities, but not often."
  14. I was rereading the parts of the Diagram given in WoR and, well first I found evidence Taravagian has set up Szeth to become Truthless and that he most likely had access to fortune that day, but then I read the last one When I first read WoR I thought this refereed to Eshonai, after reading RoW not only does this obviously refer to Rlain*, the Bridger of Minds. This also means he could see he'd become Odium and beyond, since Rlain has yet to become a danger to Taravagian's plans. And then there's this one That one never really made sense, Oathbringer proved Taravangian becoming king of Roshar would have no effect in his bargain with Odium, it would still only have saved Kharbranth. Now it means Taravangian will try to become Adonalsium, he will not stop at shattering the shards for the same reason he will never really be king of Sel while the Dor exists and he will never be king of Threnody while the Evil exist. @Leuthie suggested the "One parshendi" could actually refer to Venli and the Everstorm, it's possible but I think the everstorm would still had happen if the Alethi had tried to win the war instantly as all what Venli needed to make it happen was the Listener being desperate, on the other hand Rlain would never had become a part of bridge four if they had. Of course if the past month have taught me anything it's that I know far less about the Cosmere than I think and my theories often end up WoBed within the day, so feel free to point any incoherences you see
  15. Definitely Honour+Mercy, with maybe some Odium or/and Preservation too.
  16. As the storm seemed to have been avoided, Adilie sat at the bar and started to store her connection with everyone except Marie -she was unsure whether it would free her or not. She had thought moments like this would not be necessary with the amount of duralumin Harmony had given her, but she had already downed four bottles and only had one left on her.
  17. First, there's a topic about Maya kind of becoming an Oathblade, it seems you've got something to add to that discussion. So. Awesome. If the ninth Unmade is what's creating the storm, Dalinar will probably be bounded to that one, but SO. Awesome. I meant Honour and I wrote Odium I can see why you say Nightblood avenged her and not Taravangian (I'd say they both did), but Szeth was not there at all.
  18. Hoid did say he was late
  19. Rayse killed Honour so Taravangian already venged her My hypothesis for her plan was she'd put Vargo as Odium, Dalinar as a new Honour and Lift as a new Cultivation. But I had ignored the "with honour" part and the fact Vargo is kind of the opposite of someone acting with honour, I feel like Cultivation's setting him up to fail in a way that gives Dalinar both the possibility and the necessity of creating War.
  20. Adilie eated another duralumin bead, compounded connection and ordered a big "SHUT UP" to Marie
  21. "I've not been around you for an hour and I already feel like I need a break from you too"
  22. Adilie didn't try to dismiss it, it was for too late "Ett said? how many gods talk to you?"
  23. "We're a medium size guild dedicated to creating and spreading knowledge, we've been attacked earlier today and I have no idea if it's link to this"
  24. Adilie increased her connection with everyone, trying to make them feel as if the knew her as a reasonable and wise person "Could we please calm down a minute? We're not going to solve a century old moral dillema in one night."
  25. "Except if they're brutes with an pewtermind of course, or firesoul with a brassmind, or skimmers with an iron mind" "Same here but I don't threaten to kill people"
