Of course it's him! The stage is yours, very well deserved after I stole this round from under you (I would have not guessed Elantrian, was a bit stuck on the fused...). Sorry 'bout that. Edit: Yes, #1 referes to Sureblood. It had to be a bit more obscure so no one would guess Adolin right away.

Yes, her name was Essu.

Elantian is a nice fit, but it also might be one of the insane fused... My guess is the one who Venli encounters while she spreads her story among the newly awakend parshmen. Before she meets Leshwi.

Well, Christmas Eve is on the 24th. Here in Germany we get all of our presents on the 24th after dinner. Might be different in other families but I have not met anyone who does it the "american way". Usually this is a very big family thing, but this year (and the last one) we celebrated only in a very small group. The 31st is the last day of the (western) year, here we call it Silvester. There are no presents on that day, people just get drunk, play with fireworks and get their fingers blown off. So fun! My sister in law is from Shenzhen, she once said that there are some stores that start some Christmas thingies because it's a reason to get people to spend more. But it seems not to be very much. How is it where you live?

This is a great thread! Thank you for starting it, Sequence! It is really a great community here, welcoming, helpful and friendly. The mods are fair, approachalbe and nice and do a great job altogether. There are special events here (like the 17th Shard christmas) that only help make this forum a great place to be. I have seen a lot of other forums failing in a lot of different ways, especially since facebook and reddit take over most of the more specialized news. But here, there are still a lot of very active users who keep alive! I only discovered Sanderson fairly recently, reading my first book only last christmas. I joined here in summer and have really found a great community and and awesome place to just relax and read about my favorite books from time to time. So yes, I'd like to join in. Thank you to all the mods who have a hard job without getting much out of it. Thank you to all of the users who seem to have been here forever, even though you probably aswered all sorts of questions from all sorts of newbies before and I never heard (or better read) you being mean or condencending and thanks to all the newbies for keeping the forum alive with new ideas. Keep at it!

This is goes for small children as well. Don't get me wrong, I love my two munchkins but this is not exaggerated! https://www.fowllanguagecomics.com/zombies-bonus-panel/ Anyway, I do get the allure of dogs, but I really like my pet to leave me alone from time to time and to be able to take care of themselves without the need for a walk no matter the weather. And to me it feels much more rewarding when one of the little demon spawns comes over to cuddle. Dogs are nice but you have to work so much more for something that basicly just throws its love around anyway...

Yes! Your turn again, maestro!

That only proves that cats are smarter!

Not saying that it wasn't a good one! I really like a challenge, especially when I get it! Anyway: 1. This character's parents were presumptuous.

I have nothing to add.
