Secret Project Title Reveal and Reading
Johnny Silverlight replied to CtrlAltDepressed's question in Cosmere Q&A
I hope everything's okay. That's how my mind works. When delays happen, I don't get mad. I start worrying instead. -
Secret Project Title Reveal and Reading
Johnny Silverlight replied to CtrlAltDepressed's question in Cosmere Q&A
Excellent. I knew the reveal was today, but I hadn't heard or read anything about what time today it will be released. I do know that Noon EST (10 am Mountain Time) was when he released the title reveals and readings of his Four Secret Projects. -
This is our first canon description of how the Evil physically manifested. While reading Shadows For Silence, I visualized it as a dark, enormous cloud that drained people's lives. Nomad makes it sound more like the Evil manifested as a bunch of kaiju that rampaged across the Homeland (the primary continent on Threnody).

Sunlit Man Full Book Reactions (No Cosmere Edition)
Johnny Silverlight replied to Chaos's topic in Cosmere Discussion
A superb book. indeed. Brandon said he wanted to write a story that maintained a constant breakneck pace, and he did so quite well. He did a great job of maintaining a driving momentum that never let up for more than a few moments. -
About that Splintering...
Johnny Silverlight replied to Mason Wheeler's topic in Yumi and the Nightmare Painter
She also might have Splintered herself to prevent her Shard from being seized by another. -
Tress of the Emerald Sea Reactions (Cosmere Edition)
Johnny Silverlight replied to Chaos's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Of all the magic systems in the Cosmere, AonDor comes closest to D&D arcane spellcasting in its power and wide range of effects. -
I wasn't expecting this to be the cosmere book where we actually met a dragon.
-
Kelsier held the shard of Preservation, so any metal created or generated during that brief time should still be Lerasium. Harmonium is different because the Shard in question is different.
-
The excerpts have been released after 10am Mountain Time USA. We should find out in about an hour and a half.
-
Tor.com said that preview chapters would be released until the book is released. Since the book's release date is the 15th of this month, I would imagine there will be 2 more posts. That's how it was done on the previous Wax and Wayne book.

Lost Metal Chapters 14 and 15 reactions
Johnny Silverlight replied to Nathrangking's topic in Mistborn
The book will be released on the 15th of this month. They said these posts would continue until the release. Therefore, I would imagine there will be two more posts (on the 7th and the 14th). -
Lost Metal Chapter 12 and 13 Reactions
Johnny Silverlight replied to Little_Dagger's topic in Mistborn
Brandon has said that the god-metals do not correspond to any metals found in our universe. For example, harmonium/ettmetal is not cesium or any other alkali metal, even though it shares the property of extreme reactivity. -
Lost Metal Chapter 12 and 13 Reactions
Johnny Silverlight replied to Little_Dagger's topic in Mistborn
"Today, he’d have given almost anything to be someone else. MeLaan, wearing that fetching body—they were all fetching, honestly—led him through the entry hall to a small private sitting room on the other side." Uh, one of MeLaan's body is a dog, Wayne. Are you trying to tell us something?...... -
Lost Metal Chapter 10 and 11 Reactions
Johnny Silverlight replied to Little_Dagger's topic in Mistborn
Maybe Harmony wants Wax to spike himself with Harmonium and Trellium so that he can have a conference with Wax and Trell. -
Looking at the sword's hilt, its design is very much like the Windrunners' glyph. It's not exactly the same, but quite similar.
-
Apparently the blade being pure white is done so that the sword's design is easier for the sculptors to see. It's not necessarily the sword's actual color.

“The ash comes again,” the man said through bloody lips, his voice strangely grating. “The world will fall to it. You will get what you deserve, and all will wither beneath a cloud of blackness and a blanket of burned bodies made ash.”..... “Your end,” the voice whispered. “Your end comes. Either in ash, or at the hands of the men of gold and red. Gold and—” This is definitely another Death Rattle.
-
Did anyone else notice that the trellium spike repelled itself from the other three spikes (as if it had a magnetic charge of some kind)? I think this might be a hint that Trell is an avatar of Autonomy (wanting to stand apart from others).

Lost Metal Chapter 3 and 4 Reactions
Johnny Silverlight replied to Little_Dagger's topic in Mistborn
I loved the story in the broadsheet about Handerwym suing Allomancer Jak. I'm curious about what "Evanoplays" are. Could they be a primitive form of movie? -
Lost Metal Chapter 3 and 4 Reactions
Johnny Silverlight replied to Little_Dagger's topic in Mistborn
It looks exactly like a pterodactyl. -
I've known quite a few couples in real life that have been together for years without getting married. Wayne and MeLaan dating that long doesn't seem all that unlikely to me. Also, perhaps MeLaan feels that marriage to a short-lived human would be a bad idea. Watching your spouse grow old and die in what would be a short time from your perspective would be pretty painful.
