It's been almost a month... Queen? Hello? Come back!
-
This should be in a RoW forum, regardless of how spoilery it is. *Debates on summoning mod* @AonEne! Can you do the honors of moving this fine topic we have here?
-
I did parts 1-2 on the doc, I'll do the rest later. Nice reactions! Edit: @Danex, I have completed my comments.

A double tab with the lynch and the kill would kill a Spiked or TLR in one cycle. The lynch would use up their extra life, and the kill would finish them off.

I'm sorry but I got no idea how much power I have, and don't want to dig through the thread to add it up. So, if this is allowed... Bael uses dark magic and creates thrice as many swamp monsters as he has and doubles his swamp, spending all of his power! @AmazingGoob

If you're referring to the writeup, it is purely creative liberties. Take nothing in it literally. Under the page break is the actual info. Use [ color = red ]Name[ / color ] but without spaces to vote.

Runern Evo was an interesting person. Every day, there were new challenges. Every day, he was forced to live again. Runern Evo was a lucky person. The first time: He lived. The second time: He lived again. Runern dodged the mob's attention every day. Runern Evo was a frantic person. Runern Evo was hopefully a fast person. Today, the mob chased him. He ran with all he had, but the fury of their faces shone even through the hoods. They had yet to find an Inquisitor in their numbers. They were as frantic as he. Desperate to catch the one who had evaded them all this time. He had tried to reason. They hadn't listened. Runern Evo... was an annoyed person. The mob caught up. Runern knew it was inevitable, he was not athletic enough to outlast them for long. He slowed to a stop and turned to the group. The ganged up against him, roughly pushing him against the wall. "We have you now, finally." Runern Evo was a silent person. He said nothing. The person holding him against the wall drew a dagger and stabbed at Runern. He fell to the ground and the mob stalked off. Runern Evo... died. Wait. The knife... had not been lethal. Even now, he could tell. Missing his vitals. Wounding, but not killing, Runern. He stood up, weakly, and limped off. He'd face them later. He couldn't feign death long. But he now knew what he was. It had been clear from the beginning. Runern Evo... was a survivor. * * * Bateaux stood on his balcony, whistling a happy tune. He felt him and the others were making progress finding the imposters among them. Life was good! He was very whimsical. Why align oneself with a Canton when you could help them all? Why stay next to a certain group, why follow a specific hooded figure, why do anything? Bateaux liked his balcony, he liked his home, and he liked his tune. Why not? Alas, the sun was rising. It soon would be time to return to work, and continue figuring out who was impersonating what Bateaux represented. A knock sounded on his door. It was fairly early in the morning, who could that be? He walked briskly over, skipping a tad. Bateaux opening the door was the last thing he did. The horrifying creature before him made quick work of him, and Bateaux fell to the ground. Still smiling. What was life without death, anyway? Gears was lynched, but survived! Ventyl was killed! He was an Obligator!

Ok, just finished it... trying to reassemble the pieces of my brain from off the floor, where they exploded... Just gonna say a whole bunch of random things here, there's no organization whatsoever and it's just my mess of thoughts: Taravangian is Odium like- just- YEAH but MAN what is gonna go down in ten days What is gonna go down in ten days cause like Taravangian doesn't want to... destroy all the Shards like Rayse (Odium??) did but like maybe the Shard's Intent does so he will but I don't actually know how that works... no one knows that T is Odium now so... What happened in the epilogue?- like I have no clue. Taravangian destroyed some of Hoid's memories, if so, BAD T. But I really don't know what that means and I'm wondering how much T is still T and how much he is Odium. LOVED Shallan's arc. Chapter 93 was the best ever. I'm thinking Thaidakar is Autonomy at this point... the usage of the word 'avatar' and Hoid telling them go go back to 'their' planet is the reasoning for this... though the Lord of Scars is suspiciously Kelseir-esque. I feel like I'd be disappointed in that though I spent the whole book tryin to figure out what the heckin else Shallan did and then the reveal made SO MUCH SENSE and it was great Resteres=Kelek was great. Didn't see that one coming at all. Navani Bondsmith.... ehhhh I'd honestly have preferred Rlain but he'll do great as a TW What was Venli's oath? Did the one that was initially rejected like in part 4 count at the end? Thoroughly enjoyed an end to Eshonai's arc. It put her at peace, and me at peace for her. 4 new Shards! Yeah! (Hilarious this ends up this far down the list) Kaladin ended up where I wanted to as well (I predicted his oath, like many did) (and TEINNNNNNNN). pretty much the character arcs were amazing and I didn't realize I preferred character over plot until I read this. Favorite SA book for sure! Hoid+Jasnah whaaaaaaa like I saw the shippers untie after one of the preview chapters but I didn't think it would actually happen Overall I just- can't think about this and I will be rereading in a week or so... this book has shocked me outrageously

Was anyone ready for the King T bombshell? ROW SPOILERS
Mat replied to Elsecaller_17.5's topic in Stormlight Archive
So I wasn't the only one. This, more than anything else in the book, shocked me completely and totally. -
Yep another one be quiet
But I finished it
I finished RoW
So yep
-
Yes, another status update. Sorry-not-sorry.
But I just finished Rhythm of War, chapter 93. not the whole book, yet. But that chapter right there was a masterpiece, it was beautiful, incredible, the pinnacle of character development in epic fantasy... and seriously the best ten-ish pages I have ever read.
So, there. My mini rant about the greatness of that chapter. That's all!

Ha ha! Now I have both blade and plate!

Gears (4): Quinn0928, Danex, Somebody from Sel, Chasmgoat

Bael makes MORE SWAMP and roars in delight. He also creates MORE SWAMP MONSTERS and roars in greater delight. Assuming I have that much power

Reading, forced again to stalk the streets at night, glanced side to side, very worried. He before had thought himself only at risk of an Inquisitorial attack, but now the mob was after him. He couldn't fathom why. He had already been attacked! In what world was he an Inquisitor? "This one, apparently" He said aloud. Curse this place to the ends of the earth! While he loved the work he did in the Ministry, the ashfalls and suspicion was too much. He still didn't want to die, though. He rounded the corner, approaching his apartment. but standing in front of the building was a group of figures, hooded and menacing. Several sported knives. "There he is!" Cried one of them. The group surged forward as one. Reading twisted vigorously and sprinted back the way he had come, not thinking about hornets, or legos, or anything but getting out of there. But he didn't pay attention enough, and ran straight into a dead end. "Please." He stammered to the group, making a last-ditch attempt at survival. "I'm on your side. I'm not even the Lord Ruler! Please!" The figure up front reared back their foot and kicked Reading in the ribs. "We don't care if you really are. Your death will provide insight on the others. If you're truly loyal, you'd want to help us purge the Inquisitor's grasp from the Imperium. Your death does this." Reading closed his eyes. So that was what he was. A sacrifice for the 'greater good.' The knife fell expertly and quickly. A final mercy, perhaps, letting Reading exit life painlessly. * * * Faleast wasn't exactly welcomed home with open arms. Scadrial was a complicated planet. When he'd been alive - the normal way - it had been over 300 years after the streets under his feet had been made. AraRaash knew the city of Luthadel well, of course, but it was as alien as Braize to him. So he got lost. Mentally and physically. There wasn't any sense in the proceedings of the day, and these strange alleyways were not the kind he was used to. It was almost like - A coin shot through his chest. He whirled, dropping to the ground to see the Inquisitor standing over him. 'How'd he get here so fast?' Whatever. He hadn't found any Mistings anyway. Faleast stopped tapping Gold, letting the internal wound seal while blood flowed. And then AraRaash's consiousness stirred. 'Faleast, you can't die here, not when the Inquisitor has' - As if on cue, the spiked overlord took a doubletake, looking at something he couldn't see. Then the figure reached an arm out. And a twisted spike shot out of Faleast's chest. 'Well', Faleast thought as his Shadow was ripped away from the kandra's body. 'This does complicate things'. Shard of Reading was lynched! He was an Obligator! Ashbringer has been killed! He was an Obligator!
