The Skybreakers

I mean OB spolier:

I agree- it can't be a coincidence that Kaladin got the same nickname twice, in completely different places, and after his old friends had died

Ooh- do you think dalinar could "revive" honours remnants, so that *someone* can ascend, and then they can trap Odium again...

I always imagined he was angry at the Storm father, well, scared, kinda, because while he knew the stormfather existed, he never knew he could do this- Tbh this theory is looking pretty fragile after reading the others

Interesting, Though I don't see an instance where the radiants will be there for the singers... Kaladin helped them for a few weeks and he couldn't protect elhokar because of it- the other radiants may decide, or be advised, to stay away from all that so they can keep their goal in mind. and not break down in the middle of battle

I agree. I can imagine though, radiants slowly influencing the singers, and then when it comes to a battle they announce that they will give freedom to any singer who joins them. It'd have to be done in a way that the singers wouldn't know they were being influenced, or that they even feel like joining the alethi. It'd have to be like a split second decision as they decide that the alethi guarantee freedom far more

I can imagine spren would build a city there, as in the Cognitive Realm, oathgates are two giant spren. It'd be hard to lose 20 giant spren on 10 big platforms... Though how do they fit? I envision the oathgates as bigger than they are in the Physical Realm... So would you see 1 huge platform, with the spren at different points?

So Brandon Sanderson is definitely going to go into detail with this. At the end of OB, the standing of all (big) kingdoms and alethkar includes: Azish- in the coalition, but not fully until they can trust the alethi to keep their armies Thaylens- greatful to the alethi for saving their city, but Fen may or may not be bitter about it. I can see the thaylens and the alethi presenting a unified front in any political battles coming. Vedens- ..hard to say... Dalinar won't trust Taravangian as much, given adolins (correct) suggestion that he's with odium. Given that the veden government (as we've seen so far ) are massively influenced by the followers of the diagram, who work for odium. The shin- no idea. They happen to be a corrupted government so... My prediction is that instantly the coalition will begin planning a new place to attack, as the voidbringers have lost their momentum, and are regrouping the coalition have a perfect chance to grab a kingdom (alethkar?) Afterwards they will start stabilising the coalition. dalinar and alethkar would become sperate. Jasnah will simply not let him take any of her power... Not agressively... Just... Jasnah like.... Dalinar will now represent the Radiants, talking on their behalf, not the behalf of the kingdom, where alethkar's next action is depends on if kholinar gets taken back. The major factions in the coalition I can predict are azir's faction - opposing dalinar and the Radiants but still wanting the benefit of the world (probably the Makabaki kingdoms and azir in this one) And of course dalinar's faction, support of the Radiants, and of course wanting the benefit of the world. (Alethkar and thaylena, as one of them has a radiant at its head, who happens to be related to dalinar) It's hard to say where Jah keved will stand in all this... But I'm guessing somewhere in between the two

I doubt that Szeth will try that hard to clear his name, except to say that it was another life

I would add it, but as people can't change their answers, the poll would be unfair

Currently most people seem to want a non-radiant main character, but personally I'd prefer him to be one, or something close.

Um... Well... I seem to have become a windrunner...

To be honest, I don't really want adolin to become a wholesale radiant, it's just good to have a main character that doesn't have powers for once, though I'm still in for anything such as fixing mayalarin and maybe gaining 1st ideal powers of an edge dancer.. Though yeah I'll be happy either way

So it's mentioned that Odium is on braze. Braze being the planet next furthest from the Rosharan star. It is also mentioned odium is trapped in bonds he cannot break. The problem is that Odium can't use his full power with these bonds. Odium is definitely very powerful - enough to shatter Honour and send cultivation into hiding- but how much exactly can he do? He maintains much power with his army, and can still appear like he is on (planet) Roshar Once again, if this discussion happened before please enter a link
