Yooooooo. I'm a willshaper (Which doesn't make sense, considering Reachers decided not to bond humans anymore) but Ima go take it again rn

This... was unforseen. How?

I'm running

They are blind to the funny quirkiness of my favorite Lightweaver and highprincess

Ofc

On the phone with my friend again, going over this with him. We've decided that the Shard's Intent would influence the Vessel's thinking, making it difficult for Hoid to achieve this goal.

Sorry, didn't know, will correct that.

I'd imagine that with non-sapient spren, a similar effect would occur, with a droopy, dead form of the spren, perhaps enlarged slightly. With dead-eyes, I'd think the results would be absolutely disastrous. I think the dead-eye would scream in agony, and go insane, running around the place or something. With the reverse, I think it'd just be a difficult and painful process for the spren, but otherwise I think that would work. If it was done with sapient Radiant spren, (which failed anyway) then it can be done with Fused and Voidspren, although the same things would still probably happen.

You have caused me to spend the past hour on the Coppermind. I'm not angry, but nor am I happy. Well, no that's kind of false. The Coppermind is cool. So I am kind of happy.

So is false? We know Roshar had people already, but that's all I know :/

Wow this blew up. Been at school all day, I didn't see it till now. Ok, now to deal with everything. I was not aware of this at the time, neither was my friend. Glad this was sorted out, thanks for the help. Ok so what I was thinking when this went down was that the Dawnshard's didn't split into the Shards, but some of their aspects went into the way the Shards Intent worked. The Dawnshards are still there, but they influenced the way the Shards were made.

Yoooooooo pog happy late bday!

Shallan's a fun character. It's been fun to watch her character arc progress.

Did you perchance open Honor's Perpendicularity, thus somehow summoning a highstorm to earth? If so... Bruh.

Ok so! I just got off the phone, and here's what we talked about. Theory 1: The definition of Shattered is "(of something abstract) damaged or destroyed." Adonalsium is most definitely an abstract being. Something damaged/destroyed can be fixed, to a certain degree. The main point of this theory is that if someone could combine the 16 Shards, and the 4 Dawnshards, that massive coalescing of power would combine into a sentient being. A New Adonalsium. Theory 2 (Disproven): Only exact opposite shards can Splinter each other. Disproven because Odium Splintered Honor, Devotion, and Dominion. (Sorry if I missed any) Theory 3: As shown in the Dawnshard novella, Adonalsium is portrayed in the mosaic as a sun split into 4 chunks (Dawnshards) and those chunks were also split 4 ways (Shards). As such, all Shards are just manifestations of either one Dawnshard, or a combo of 2. Theory 4: Wit (Hoid, Cephandrius) is gathering parts of different Shard's magic systems to combine it all into New Adonalsium, as discussed in theory 3. Theory 5: Opposite shards (Preservation, Ruin) are needed to actually create life. The Singers were already there when Honor and Cultivation arrived, as were the humans on Ashyn when Odium got there. But Preservation and Ruin worked together to make Scadrial and its life forms. Theory 6: As discussed in the Dawnshard novella, Rysn feels from the mosaic different feelings. I forget what they were, and I don't know where to go to find the quote. If someone could do that, and post is as a reply, that'd be great. Back to the point, these feelings are interpreted as what Adonalsium felt during the shattering. And, as Adonalsium died, we theorized that parts of his being also became ingrained on the Commands used to kill him. The Dawnshards themselves. Thoughts on it all? Seriously, give me some thoughts. Please. I had way too much fun talking about this, I need more interaction based on these theories.

Who wants me to be their Babsk, because I am one now.

Am Babsk now haha.

Hopefully this info can be a prequel novella or something. That'd be lit.

Yes, I will take your Dumb also. Give it to me, Frustration.

Give me your dumb, Mathiau, and I will give you smart. Also Urithiru spaceship!? yoooo. but hrm this is a confusing topic.

I realized, while reading RoW, that when humans came to Roshar from Ashyn, they probably came using the Cognitive Realm (Shadesmar) How did I not realize this before hand, I thought they went through space or something, idk Bruh, i have dum

Another thing of the past, one living herald.

Oh wait, I forgot about the bandits. This event, and her attitude towards such a dark task, is very concerning. I'm unfamiliar with the Elsecaller oaths, but I do know she was already an Elsecaller at this point, so it could have been connected to that.

Speaking of draining yourself of Identity and Connection, if you severed your Identity and Connection to yourself, me and my friend think you'd view life in the third person, speaking for yourself as if you were someone else.
