I think that if the Lord Ruler was Thaidakar and his death left an opening for Kelsier, we would have heard something about that in SH. By the time SH is over, it seems like the Ghostbloods would have replaced their leader if he died.

I agree

Agreed. This is one of my main problems with Starsight

I haven't read Edgedancer in a few months, but I know what you're talking about. I was thinking about your proof, and I agree. With another writer, it might be a little flimsy, but Brandon never does anything by accident. The "apparently" really sold me on this one. There is definitely something there.

So, in Oathbringer, Jasnah is communicating with those two informants, one of which promises information about Truthwatcher spren. One of the informants (the one who starts with a p) says that he thought his news of a sighting of Axies the Collector was interesting. This implies that Axies is not only slightly famous but is also of some note to Jasnah, who is researching the Voidbringers and Knights Radiant. I don't really have any theories about this, but I was wondering if anyone else did. This forum is just for any theories about Axies or his research.

Thanks for the tip!

P.S. I may be new to this site, but I do know what I am talking about. I have read all of Brandon's book multiple times.

Personally, I think that no beginning radiant is truly "worthy" of their powers yet. When Dalinar bonded to the Stormfather, all he had was a promise that he would try to unify Roshar. Later, he was able to make good on his promise. One could argue that he was worthy at the beginning because he had changed and wouldn't repeat his past mistakes. One could also argue that he was unworthy because, as of yet, he had barely been able to unite anything. I agree with Leuthie that Navani is a unifier. I also think that she is worthy of her power. If you are arguing that Navani is not worthy yet, just remember that the First Ideal is really just a promise to try. Navani has promised that she will try to unify, and, in my opinion, she will make good on that promise.

1) Adolin because he always knows how to help 2) hmmm... this is hard. All of Brandon's characters are so believable! Probably Dalinar for me. He really wants to make the world better for everyone. 3) Kaladin. No contest. He always has the most dramatic parts. I always say that Kaladin can get away with saying and doing things that no one else could 4) Jasnah. There are two sentences in OB that talk about her "lunacy" and how she was locked away. I am really curious about this. Also Saj-anat. She is really fascinating and I think she will be super important later on. I also think that Renarin and Rlain have interesting plot lines. 5) ?? Maybe Pattern. He says the weirdest things! 6) MOASH. Needs no justification. (See above quote) 7) Navani. She and I are both a bit OCD about organization. She is also totally a scholar, which is what I aspire to be. 8) Little Gav. His confusion about his parents is so believable! 9) Adolin. He is always so kind and sweet. 10) Sebarial. There are a couple of kids I know...

I remember reading somewhere that the Envisagers split off of the Sons of Honor, but that theory has merit.
