    Yes but it doesn't really help us know whether mists and light are the same thing, does it?

    Well, we know that the pure tones affect the investiture. When the mists start returning, that is when the pulses start getting very loud for Vin.

    Imo, the cause-and-effect there is the other way around. I think the reason Braize is nine-centric is because its inhabitants, the Fused, only believe in nine fundamental Surges.

    I think it’s just the way the society/planet/ magic system developed. Like how Scadrial has 16, Roshar 10, supposedly the planet for Aether of Night is 12.

  3. Here’s a theory: in ancient Egypt, the part of the soul that was the person, the one that passed on in death, was called “ba.” Mishra or misra in Hindi meant mixed. Ado obviously means light in Stormlight. So what if Ba-Ado-Mishram means “soul of mixed light”?

    If Dalinar at Oath 5 is even half as terrifying as Ishar was onscreen I'd give him nearly even odds vs. Rashek. 

    You neglect the fact that Dalinar has made the oaths that the Stormfather requires, while Ishar didn’t need to. Dalinar could not use his abilities to divide, as said in the second ideal of the Bondsmiths.

    Yeah. Thats how i interpreted it too.

    referring to how we saw Ruin's color being black and Preservation's being white. That kinda being the intro and "foreshadowing" of color being relevant to Investiture and Shards

    So, Ruin’s “mist” was black, right? I think, in this case, rather than color affecting the magic, the Shard of origin actually affects the color. I don’t think that for everything, just for this case.

  6. Greeting! I am the Basement Boi, and I have finally found out about the 17th Shard. I have been a cosmere fan for about a year now, and I'm glad I found a website where I can communicate with so many other fans of Brandon Sanderson.
