I dont think any of this confirms its the real Stormfather though. Why would he not trust Gavilar's family, what is the secret there? Surely he is not just saying that he would not trust them because Gavilar was not suitable, as he had not committed or given Gavilar anything at that point. I think Brando Sando is deliberately playing us, and i think the paragraphs @alder24 quotes further prove the theory that it was NOT the Stormfather. Had he been there when Gavilar died, do you really think Brando Sando would miss the opportunity to use that? That this is the only reference he would make to the link between the spren and Gavilar? I remain strongly unconvinced. Who could it be if it were not the Stormfather or Ishar though? Taravangian or Rayse? WOA implies Rayse spent a lot of time looking for a champion and only quotes Dalinar, Kaladin and Moash as possibilities.

The entity Gavilar spoke with in the prologue did not sound or behave like the Stormfather despite being called that. I have finished WAT and still remain unconvinced that this was indeed the Stormfather. We know Odium was also searching for a champion, and thats one of my theories of what it was. I also thought it could be Ishar seeking his own champion, which would tie in very nicely with the end of ROW and his madness. I know the Stormfather/Tanavast admitted to speaking with Gavilar and pointed out his faults but there was no direct reference to the prologue. Also, there is an exchange in the prologue which states - "You must take this, Gavilar said to the Stormfather. They must not get it Tell..my brother..HE must find the most important words a man can say..." "No, the Stormfather said, tough a hand took the sphere. Not him. I'm sorry Gavilar. I made that mistake once. I will never trust your family again" - well we know the Stormfather picked Dalinar anyway, and we know he knew Dalinar is a good choice. So What is this thing speaking to Gavilar?

Thank you for your help LadyLameness! At least I know I can stop looking now, was driving me mad!

Hi all! I have never joined a forum and I might be doing this wrong. Forgive me if this is the wrong section to post this but I am desperate and clueless. I have for some time been trying to locate the symbol for Raysium (god metal for Odium). Please point me to the right place to look, as I desperately want Raysium as a tattoo. Thank you all in advance for the help! Daniel
