    If the fuse controls the Horneater perpendicularity. Then Rock could of gotten himself into a battle with the fuse and killed. I will go with king or leader. He has to protect the Peaks. SO he can not leave

    I want there to be a moment that is simmilar when kaladin says and sill lives but instead Rock.

    Odium is less invested than Cultivation, and therefore stronger.

    I will nitpick this specific statement because amount of investment is not tied to strenght. As Harmony who has two polar powers says he cannot direct his streght due to the will of the shards in opposition. As to the argument

    Nice, I'm arguing against the people who actually support a child most commonly Gavilnor being Odium's champion.

    I agree. Gavinor being odium champion seems unrealistic. Taravangian would not throw the fight unless he is aiming for something different. So if he uses Gavinor then he would have to do so to strike at a different target. If gavinor dies then Adolin replaces Gavinorn as heir. It doesn't help Odium.

    what if he is defeated, just not dead. remember the details of the deal? he said that he would still be alive on Braize and eventually come back. so what if the second half is TOdium coming back and slapping the characters in the back and trying to murder them again.

    These Are my theories.

    I agree. I just do not see a scenerio where TOdium wins the contest of champions. I think the second half is TOdium doing stuff off world and a whole lot of people comming to roshar to fight odium or join odium. What Odiums have always wanted is a super smash bros free for all event. Part 2 of Stormlight is where roshar turns into a proxy war for different god factions. I remeber in book 1 epigraphs dragon dude from 17th shard tells hoid to back off because he would create a bunch of extra beef. Roshar is about to be kitchen where they cook the beef into beef paties.

    There also has to be some measure of growth involved. It’s a journey after all. 
    He has been training people since WoK and is a Highmarshal of the Urithiru forces.

     

    Why woudnt he be able to? It’s war

    I agree kaladin has had trouble fighting to protect others. in book 2 kaladin doesn't want to fight listeners. book 3 kaladin doesn't want to fight singers. kaladin asks sill about the oaths when escaping singers in book 3. he asks why he has to fight to protect. Kaladin at end of book 4 has had trouble fighting. My guess

    I will fight to protect until I can find a better way

    This made me think of lawmen in the Roughs going after those of their own who had gone bad. Going after them with more focus (is that the right word?) than just any old criminal.

    Yes, it's their job to keep crime in the Roughs down. It's more their job to watch out for the other lawmen and get rid of them if they start "cackling" (word stolen from Terry Prachett. Sorry. I couldn't think of a better way to describe it.)

     

    The 5th oath might be something like that. Realizing when someone needs to be eliminated, not protected, even if you are deeply connected to them and stuff.

    Like Wax killing Lessie. (<< Mistborn spoiler, 2nd arc, end of 2nd book)

    I like the idea but i do not know if it is honorable. When adolin assinated sadeas dalinar and kaladin both saw it as wrong. There was a scene where dalinar talks to adolin before he goes to shadesmar. If Dalinar, who holds the most of the shard honor, has such a bad reaction then I cant imagine that both kal and syl will be okay with executing moash. Kal has more a paternal vibe.

    Or, the end of the world is coming whether I remove the leader or not. And it wouldn't make much difference if I did. And it would be justice if I did. And if they don't know what to do, maybe as the storming knights radiant, you can give them some useful survival knowledge, with your medical triage, and commander's mind for emergency thinking. I don't know. Given the state of things, I just have a strong feeling, some people just might want to listen.

    In oathbringer, Kaladin says he cannot stay. toppling the government without new being there to build is cause for disaster if he stays he must commit much in resources. Justice and punishment are not the same.

    You seem to think Dalinar had a lot more power than he had, the president can't just arrest Congress, no matter what they do.

    Dalinar Had so much power as the system of rule in Alethkar during and after Gavilar then before Jashna is more a feudal based on the motto might makes right. They justify war and conquest saying that the outcome was the will of the all mighty
