I just had some questions about the stonewalkers campaign for those who have already run it. Not sure if this is supposed to be in this forum or somewhere else. How spoiler heavy is it for someone who’s never read the books? How many sessions did it take you to run the whole campaign?

I think there should be an actual opera made of the one that is mentioned in the broadsheets of Shadows of Self

I feel that. It was in the MeLaan epilogue, while she was sailing through Shadesmar. I heard red hair and thought, 'oh who could they be?' Racked my brains and couldn't think of anything. Makes sense though.

Huzzah!!

This is from a long time ago in this topic, but I feel like it deserves to be brought back up in light of recent events

I've seen a thread talking about the "For Ado's Sake" thing, back when RoW first came out. It talks about Bo-Ado-Mishrim, and how that was probably what Roboniel was talking about, which would make sense, because BAM caused the False Desolation, and was one of the most important unmade. That's what I personally think is what the Ado thing is.

I love how there was an entire conversation about whether or not BS is a household name, and about how he has to work on other books and how it takes him so long to get cosmere books, and then Brandon just announces that he wrote 5 storming books in his free time a year later, 3 of which were cosmere. Then proceeds to get the most funded kickstarter ever. In under a week

I was just reading through and saw this In light of recent announcements this is funnier than I can say.

You know you're a good author when you write five books in secret and have your fans pay for them within minutes of announcing it.

The problem with Light being the magic system is that there could be hundreds of thousands of different Lights. This is kind of like with allomantic metals. This thread shows a progression of numbers as people slowly realized there were billions of trillions of metals. The same thing could be done with Lights https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/95797-the-ultimate-metal-count/ The same thing could be done with Lights

Ok, a bit of explanation for the title: While aimlessly scrolling through the shard, I saw a random thread about pairing Cosmere powers, and the thought came to me, If a misting/mistborn became a Knight Radiant, would they be able to use Stormlight as a replacement for metals? It sounds a little out there, but Kelsier is trying to find a way to get Stormlight off Roshar. Feel free to shoot this down in any way you can

@elsoberanok, the problem with Kelsier vs. Dalinar is that there is a redemption arc for Dalinar already. He has accepted that he was a bad person. Kelsier, on the other hand, has not (as far as I know) admitted that the murders he committed were bad. Dalinar has forgiven himself. Kelsier has practically admitted that the only reason he killed the nobles was because he hated them. He even enjoyed killing them. Dalinar was under the influence of the Thrill, and he felt horrible about the Rift, so much so that he became a drunkard for years.

Agreed. Look at Threnody.

If being Topaz has anything to do with it, then why was it made worthless by Hoid wearing it? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is a reference to the "Topaz": Again, I may be wrong. But if I'm not, what is Hoid talking about?

I just have to point out one thing: Somewhere near the beginning (I don't remember exactly) there was a discussion about when Szeth became truthless, and I have an answer that I don't think was brought up. In tWoK, in the Rysn interlude, it is mentioned that Vstim had gotten a truthless from the shin seven years previously. I'm fairly certain that that truthless is Szeth. Also, more on the current topic of seons, what does Ala mean as an Aon? That could be a hint.
