  1. No big deal mate. The "false desolation" was the Unmade Ba-Ado-Mishram connecting with singers and giving them forms of power (Stormform, etc), making them "Regals." All the big bads, fused, sentient spren,etc, were locked up in Braize, though. False desolation was around 2000 years ago, Aharietam was 4500 years ago.
  2. Mel was bondsmith during the false desolation, not Aharietam. The whole reasoning behind "Arts and Majesty" was to bar women from using shards, so yeah, I'd say that had something to do with it. Also, historically, some cultures considered the left hand unclean because it was used to clean yourself, and that might have had some influence when Brandon came up with it.
  3. Hiya Diem. Whitesand fan?
  4. Pretty big Cobb fan, myself. Planning to read Starsight next month! Welcome.
  5. My man Taln deserves his own tropical island, Ash in a bikini and an unlimited supply of pina coladas.
  6. You picked a good time to start. You've got like 3400 glorious pages you can read back to back. Welcome.
  7. That's cool, mate. I've been a Whelan fan for uh I guess bit over 25 years. The To Green Angel Tower cover still takes my breath away.
  8. Probably his roughs hat.
  9. Yeah, that's right. It should only be that turnings Dragon. It won't be "LTT" but the same archetype. Rand's memories might surface in the next "Last Battle." The Dark One exists outside of time and the fight against him, it seems that, in that place, every Dragon incarnation exists at once, since time doesn't exist. It's pretty trippy.
  10. Hey Vasherin, welcome back. You could probably get by without it, but couldn't hurt. There are Sel and Scadrial natives, on Roshar, as we speak.
  11. I got to work the night of the 17th, so probably won't be able to dig into RoW until the 18th. Unless Wellers sends it early...doubt that happens though. *la sigh*

  12. Forgot to add, Dawnshard physical won't be out til next year, but you should be able to buy the ebook as soon as it's out. He's trying to finish and get it out to Kickstarter people before RoW but unsure when official ebook drops.
  13. This link will take you to partnered bookstores if you want to pre order a signed / numbered copy with an invite to the release party. If you don't care about that, can also be pre ordered off Amazon, obv. https://read.macmillan.com/torforge/rhythm-of-war-event-page/
  14. All covers look bad next to a Michael Whelan cover.
  15. Hullo Misti, which one of Wayne's hats is your favorite?
  16. Well, Brandon kind of cackled when someone asked if Shai was on Roshar.
  17. I think you mean terrifying.
  18. I would have liked edgedancers but it was pretty low. Light weavers was always dead last. Lol
  19. Est. Figure all the Europeans will be up reading still.
  20. During Brandon's release party seems like a good time. Think its at 8pm on the 17th.
  21. It was a little strange. I did take it several times tweaking responses. Originally, truthwatcher was on top at like 69% and skybreaker/windrunner where in a dead heat at 67%. (I'm disavowing skybreskers atm though bc I'm not real happy with them. ). I have some life experiences that lean toward the battle radiants: black belt in kenpo karate, jiu-jitsu training, marksmanship, fenced with foil, camping and hiking, etc. When I emphasized that stuff, TW and WW swapped places and SW was at like 64%. So, yeah, kinda weird. Lol
  22. Odium is a used car salesman. Hate is an emotion, power wheels is a car. I think everyone could use a good shot of regrowth.
  23. Being in a brandon world would be bad for health. Self preservation aside, early Roshar, between the expulsion and DoP, or Dragonsteel. Though I'm dying to know whats going Yolen is like, atm.
  24. Welcome Anna. Yeah, truthwatchers are weird. The radiant quiz says I'm a truthie. Of course, it also says I'm a skybreaker and a windrunner (and kind a stoneward), so who knows.
