The Sibling

Cavetown! A whole lot of Cavetown. Also there's this grate artist called Starving Narcissist who does acoustic folk punk and is way underrated

Question about Secrets in Stained Glass

ARghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh how dare you

Yeah I kind of doubt paladin will ever do anything like become a world hopper. He really doesn't have that same personality that seems to make people like Hoid and Khriss wo well suited to it. The only way I could see him lasting longer than his normal lifespan would be by becoming a herald or something like that, where he's essentially sacrificing himself to protect other but in a way that still leaves him alive. I don't really want that to happen though because I think it would just be really sad and not really complete his character arc.

Yeah definitely. I just feel like someones going to die and Syl's death especially if she dies protecting Kaladin than it doesn't really hurt his character arc (it might wreck hers though, idk).

I really don't think that Kaladin should die. I feel like it would cheapen some of his growth towards learning that he too needs to be protected. Not all heroes need to sacrifice their lives I guess. I do kind of get the vibe. that Syl is going die and I know it is absolutely going to destroy me.

I think this would be really really cool. I am definitely hoping for more fused and radiants fighting on the same side. Even better would be regular singers.

Even if there is some way to organize shards with "opposite intents" it probably wouldn't be Harmony and Whimsy because Harmony is a combination shard and didn't exist when Adonalsium originally shattered. If there are quadrants or opposites or something it would probably be with the original shards. Maybe whimsy's opposite could be Preservation?

I did my best (this was a collaboration with @The Stormfather) (Spoilered for length)

I love how we just start with some classic Hoid/Shallan moments. He's so so kind to her but I feel like it's in a slightly different way than he is with Kaladin. He often pokes fun at Kaladin and leaves him to tease out the meaning of his stories, but I feel like he knows what Shallan needs. She needs someone to come right out and tell her that she is important, she is loved, she is strong. I guess that's why Adolin is so perfect for her. I've missed Pattern so much. I'm trying to not re-read Stormlight until closer to the SA5 release, but it's quotes like these that make me want to start now. I've really really missed Roshar. Overall I really liked the new chapters. I feel like some of the dialogue feels a little clumsy, but it might just be that I need to get used to Brandon's writing style again. All the stuff about the spiritual realm is absolutely confusing to me, so I'll be relying on the coppermind/shardcast for any hope of understanding it, but that's okay. I'm really liking how complex but also less rigid the magic systems are getting. The Cosmere feels less like a bunch of hard magic systems that are entirely separate and more like a crazy patchwork quilt of hard magic systems interwoven with the soft magic system that is the Spiritual realm. It's really confusing but I'm here for it. Also these chapters are reminding me how much I love Shallan.

Welcome to the shard! What's your favourite colour of magic?

That's really cool!I love her expression!

Welcome to the shard! I like the quote in your signature!

Just wanted to say that this article was really well written and interesting. Thanks!

I would be nice to be a tin feruchemist because then when the world gets too loud and bright and annoying you could just make it quiet and you wouldn't even need noise cancelling headphones. And then when the world is dull and boring you could make it feel bright and loud and interesting.

Okay, I just finished The Narrow Road Between Desires. Probably shouldn't have been reading instead of working on my English project, but whatever. I loved this book. I love Bast. I love Rike. The ending was great, and it was nice to see Carter and the Cob and all of them.

I love the prose, but after finishing The Wise Man's Fear I don't really like Kvothe as a character anymore. He just kind of goes with the flow and doesn't have a great motivation. Yeah, he's looking for information about but it doesn't really affect his decisions all that much. It feels like I'm reading a dnd character going from adventure to adventure while being mildly impacted by his backstory. That said, I actually do really like the books. They're a joy to read and I do like a lot of the side characters (like Bast). I'm definitely planning on re-reading them soon, although I do need to buy A Slow Regard For Silent Things because I really want to read that too.

This is awesome! It's so fun to watch and the effect really does look like how I imagined cryptics.

I read like half of it, but I didn't really like the style so I gave up. My friend loved it though! She doesn't read that much but she devoured this book and the sequel. Yesterday I finished Unseen Academicals. So far, it's definitely my favourite Pratchett book. I loved all the characters so much! Glenda was so cool and I really like Mr. Nutt. The book I read before this was The Last Continent, which I didn't really enjoy to be honest. The plot was really confusing and the humour of that book didn't work as well for me. Now I'm reading The Narrow Road Between Desires. I'm around half way through and so far really enjoying it. I love the illustrations because Bast looks just like I imagine him. and I like the character of Rike as well.

Welcome to the shard! Nice profile picture.

Little Cellist by Bears in Trees is sad but also a celebration of friendship and it's really good.

Same. I've tried so many keywords, but so far no luck.

What's Mythos again?
