  1. Ha! Airsick lowlander.
  2. Welcome to the Shard, Sequence! Hope we can get along !
  3. Absolutely good point. I'm inclined to believe that Lewshi never wanted to be with the Voidbringers. Her ideals and manners, her honor after each battle she had with Kaladin, and her troops as well, they are pretty much on par with the Windrunners. The thing that pretty much, at least for me, made her choose a new side, was that the Singers were being chosen to be Radiants
  4. Exactly, but do not forget that he's Odium now, not Passion, so there are things that we are still unaware off.
  5. Did not know this, thanks! Dalinar has only sworn his 3rd Oath, which is incredibly terrifying. The fact that he is already this powerful with just 3 Oaths is unnatural, no wonder Honour kept a close look at the Bondsmiths and Ishar. All this brings another interesting point, and that would be Kaladin. The fact that the SF refers to him as the Child of Tanavast, and WoB confirms that it has significance, this all could mean that Kaladin is in possession of another Splinter (inherited or maybe planted on him by Cultivation?), without him and Syl realizing it. Dalinar sounds like a really worthy Vessel for Honour, if all the splinters are reunited, but Kaladin seems like another possible Vessel.
  6. The part where Brandon says that the Oathpact is not broken must refer to the fact that Taln hasn't broken yet.
  7. Hello people of the 17th Shard! I've read so far all the Mistborn novellas, Warbreaker, Elantris and Stormlight Archive (with RoW being my favourite so far). I'm kinda late for the introduction but I didn't want to skip formalities. Got a thing for war games and RPGs, really big fun of D&D. I like theorizing and hearing other theories and critics from others with regards to what is to be expected of the Cosmere. Thanks again for welcoming me to the community!
  8. That could only be possible after Honor's Splintering though, since when he was alive he enforced his laws so that the Bondsmiths could not use their abilities in such manner. Though it is already known, I assume, that Taln did not break, which brings to me another doubt. How were the Fused and Odium able to come back to Roshar? (Could be a gap in my knowledge, and I would appreciate if someone could fill it)
  9. I've never putted much attention to Ba-Ado-Mishram before, but your line of thinking is an interesting one. Maybe your theory could be proved false by WoB, or maybe proved true, but regardless of that, I strongly believe that Cultivation has big plans for the Cosmere. Maybe she's being controlled by the intent of her Shard, without her realizing.
  10. It's an interesting theory, but I must differ. In RoW, there are many instances in which Hoid mentions a tie. The contract that Dalinar and Rayse agreed upon, only show the results if one side is victor over the other, however, there are no mentions of what happens if there is a tie between both sides. If T-Odium wins, he keeps the lands Rayse won, and Dalinar surrenders to him. If Dalinar wins, he gets back Herdaz and Alethkar, and in both situations, T-Odium remains bound and trapped in Roshar. Taravangian saw this when he ascended, but we also know that he promised to save them all. Many of the community agree that he refers to all the people in the Cosmere, who Taravangian believes are ruled by fools and "Broken Gods". For Taravangian to accomplish his goals, he needs to extend his influence, that means that he has to be free of Roshar. Hoid is, I assume, looking for Taravangian to do this, whatever his reasons are.
  11. Brandon has confirmed that Dalinar will be more present in Stormlight 5, due to him probably being Honor's Champion and because he has to learn how to use his abilities as a Bondsmith. And since the Skybreakers will be the focused Order on the next book, will probably get more of Szeth, maybe some more about Renarin, now that Rlain has joined the Truthwatchers.
  12. I really wish Stormlight 5 is as long or even longer than RoW
  13. Kinda like the coin that Wax found after his wedding with Steris, the one that held the memories of Kelsier. Very interesting point, thanks. Unity could be a Splinter of Honor, maybe held by the Stormfather after the Splintering of Honor? Also, another reason for me to believe that Cultivation had some implication in the death of Tanavast, is the fact that not all Vessels are aligned with the Intent of the Shard they posses, resulting in the mental and emotional change of the Vessel, the best example of this is Ati when he held Ruin, he was supposed to be one of the kindest persons there was, until he Ascended. Sorry for that, I'll avoid it next time.
  14. This brings up another doubt of mine, maybe you could answer it. At the very beginning, Honor and Cultivation were the Gods of the Singers. What made the Singers change their devotion to Odium? Something that's been bothering me since Oathbringer is the part where Dalinar summons Honor's Perpendicularity, Odium was shocked and said "WE KILLED YOU", obviously referring to Honor. But since Brandon has a thing for wording things, this happen to occur to me: who does Rayse mean by we? Does he refer to the Fused or the Unmade? Or does he refer to someone of equal power helping him? My first assumption was Cultivation, for she has plans of her own since a long time, any thoughts on this?
  15. Yep, though I strongly believe that Hoid wouldn't leave himself so defenseless against this, without having contingencies, like Weltall said above. I guess the only way for us to know what Hoid is up to is by waiting for Stormlight 5 to come out, or Dragonsteel. I want to add that I'm also surprised by El's reaction at the restoration of the Sibling, basically celebrating the failure of Raboniel in trying to corrupt it and Navani bonding it.
  16. What are you thoughts on the contract though? You think that T-Odium will go for the tie? After all there's just the condition of what happens if Dalinar or Odium wins the Contest.
  17. "Odium’s presence had remained behind. Was … something wrong? Don’t trouble yourself, he thought. This is working. After all, Wit’s first face-to-face meeting with Odium in over a thousand years had gone exactly as he had imagined." This are the last paragraphs of RoW, even knowing that he couldn't find a true pitch, he still reassures himself that everything has gone accordingly. Notice that he said Odium, not Rayse. Furthermore, Hoid has lived even longer than the other Shards, and he knew Odium was capable of damaging him in this manner (erasing his short term memories contained in his Breaths), he would never expose himself to such damage unless he planned for it. I believe Hoid wants T-Odium to seek for a tie, it was implied on the book a few times (though I had to reread to be sure), the reason behind that however is beyond me.
  18. T-Odium has placed El in a position of power, at the very least we know that he favors him. For me it would seem weird that he declared to save everyone if it didn't include the Singers.
  19. Sorry for the "obvious" part, my bad. I can understand Taravangian's desire to save everyone, but just save them from Cultivation? She who needs his help to achieve her goals? Also, after the Trial of Adolin, Maya admitted that the old Radiants and their Spren broke their oaths in order to stop something worse that was to come, does this have any relation to how Taravagian intends to save Roshar, alongside the other worlds?
  20. Hello everyone, I'm kinda new at this (just joined the 17th Shard, so please a have a bit of patience if you can). So I've been over my head, rereading the last chapters of Rhythm of War, alongside the Musings of El, and I don't know what to expect. It has been made obvious that Hoid fooled Taravangian (Odium) into making him believe that he erased Hoid's short term memories, and that Hoid doesn't suspect that Rayse is dead. I've read in another post a theory of Hoid playing a Reverse Uno card on Taravangian, making him try for a tie in the contest of Champions. This is very interesting to me, but also there are a lot of things that don't quite fit for me; we know Taravangian wants "to save them all" (which I assume he refers to all the people of Roshar, both humans and singers), could he be referring to Cultivation, knowing that she has her own agenda? Or is he referring to Hoid's plan (this sounds less appealing to me, since he just erased his memories stored in his breaths and then left him like that)? Could El be referring to this when he spoke about a Great War? If you got to this part, I thank you all for reading, thanks again for welcoming me to the community!
