  1. hmph. any rogue planets? There needs to be a planet for a seed to land on. I guess they technically could land on a star. But they should really land on the planets with dawnshards.
  2. Cruish frowns "Dwarves? Why would the deep folk capture me?"
  3. Cruish frowns "That's a pity. Odd feeling." he looks around

  5. The Axe hangs above Cruish's head, the execution ready to swing. I have failed, the prince thinks to himself as he stares up at the stars. He will not cry out when his neck is severed from his body, he decides. He will not give the Lion the satisfaction of hearing him scream. Despite losing everything, his throne, his family, and his kingdom, he will not fade into the night quietly. Cruish stares into the dusk of his people, and does not weep. As the axe swings through the air, ions ablaze along its edge, he simply closes his eyes, and waits for death. Then a flash of light envelops him, and the black sea parts. Cruish rises to his feet in his cell, hand tracing the brand on his forehead, and attempts to activate his implants.
  6. What are you doing awake?

  7. "Hm. Strange. Darkness isn't restful. Is this the deepness?"
  8. Jakob sighs "Not another magic mountin"
  9. What does he mean that nobody knows where Virtuosity is? Don't they know the shard is splintered? I feel like this leads to a couple of possibilities: 1. Ed is talking about her Splintering in an obtuse way. This seems least likely to me, since he then goes on to talk about Dominion and other Shards that can't explain what they did, presumably because they were Splintered. Virtuosity is obviously not in this category. 2. Ed and Arcanists of the time don't even know that Virtuosity was Splintered. This also seems kinda far-fetched. Hoid obviously knows that she was Splintered as of Yumi, and also indicates there's a Scadrian space station in the vicinity of Komashi. (Iron Seven Waystation). It seems wild that at the Cosmere aware stage that Scadrial is in at that point that they don't know about Virtuosity Splintering herself while also inhabiting the area where she did. 3. Something happened between Yumi and IotE and Virtuosity reappeared and then prompted disappeared herself. Maybe something like the completion of the Iriali Long Trail? We know that Roshar is the 4th world, and there's a strong chance that Scadrial is the 5th, since people matching Iriali traits are described in Era 2, after SA5. We also know that they were on Lumar 300 years before Tress is set, and that at the time that Tress is happening they are currently on First of the Sun. They were on Roshar for longer than 300 years and Tress is after Roshar in the timeline, so they must've gone to Lumar after Roshar, but before First of the Sun. So Lumar is 6th, First of the Sun is 7th, and then sometime after Tress but before IotE the Long Trail is completed and Virtuosity is reformed, an event that Arcanists are sure to be aware of. Thus when Ed refers to Virtuosity she is not Splintered but disappeared as she hides for some reason or other. Am I missing something? I know it's a lot to infer from one line, but it just seems very out of place from an extremely Cosmere aware character like an Arcanist. TLDR; Did the Iriali already reform into the shard Virtuosity? In truth- I think Virtuosity didn't actually Splinter herself. She splintered some of her investiture off here, but didn't commit divine suicide. She's not grouped in with the other dead shards, so I doubt she's dead.
