If she does not by much but any Elantrians she would have met most likely were post Reod.

I assume post Reod the Elantrians would be a bit more grounded even if the surrounding people start to worship them again and Shai being cosmere aware would work her understanding into the Essence Mark. Maybe she has less control over the personality than I thought but given how it is described in Emperor’s Soul that doesn’t seem to be the case. However it’s possible the magnanimity is actually helpful for the Ghostbloods since she also loses her memory a bit but it feels more like a drawback.

Just started... Scadrial...?
lacrossedeamon replied to S. Stormy's topic in Tress of the Emerald Sea
Residentially maybe but showers were being installed in barracks, prisons, boarding schools, and public bathhouses by 1890, at least in Europe. -
Ulaam is mentioned in The Last Metal in context that implies an early generation Kandra possibly on the level of TenSoon.

Where does TotES fit in the chronology?
lacrossedeamon replied to captbunzo's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I think Brandon has said less than a century more than a decade. And given the context clues in the stories Hoid is most likely telling the story to a realmatically aware group on First of the Sun around the time Sixth of the Dusk takes place (maybe between it and the sequel chapter released). -
I will admit that Shai’s take on being Elantrian as a holier than thou entity was weird. I would have thought her being so realmatically aware would result in the personality she crafted in the stamp being more grounded. But maybe she did it as a joke given that she is working for Kelsier (assuming it was created after she joined the Ghostbloods).

Sorry it was actually Raoden and Galladon although I think there might be another bit with Sarene and Omin. Chapter 7:

I will find the conversation between Sarene and Omin and post it here later.

This is pretty much a nitpicky and petty complaint but I preferred the artwork for the cover during the initial announcement and excerpt releases. I assume it was changed to what we got due to being too The Little Mermaid adjacent which is understandable but still a bit disappointing. Curious to if anyone else felt similar.

I mean they talk about it in Elantris how people haven't actually moved on.

Frustration's Firepower Index: Taldain
lacrossedeamon replied to Frustration's topic in Cosmere Discussion
@Frustration Agree to disagree then. I feel you are giving too much to Taldain based on assumptions regarding Autonomy rather than judging Taldain on its own merits but it's your post to do what you will. -

Not sure it should work that way but in that case just give me 195 breaths -

That's an assumption. -

lacrossedeamon replied to Frustration's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Oh you are saying that all 4 would be a 256 multiplier. I was thinking it would be a 16. Wasn't thinking the dawnshard multiplication compounded on each other just thought they effected the non dawnshard investiture. So 4(4)*investiture rather than 4^4*investiture. -

well that just limits me to 62.5 misc point allocations if I still want all 4 dawnshards -
Frustration's Firepower Index: Taldain
lacrossedeamon replied to Frustration's topic in Cosmere Discussion
We got Scadrians and Rosharans there in more concerted efforts than just random worldhoppers, silly to think their Shards wouldn't be taking an active interest in it. -
Sure but there was still that undercurrent of hoping they'd come back and that it all might have been a test. Gods work in mysterious ways and all that.

lacrossedeamon replied to Frustration's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Sounds like stuff like that might open her up to retaliation from other Shards. -
Shai as an Elantrian definitely expected to be treated as one

Or the fact that they seem to be limited to approaching the planet from the physical realm only and maybe even the Prime Directive like restrictions on contact implies she is doing something. -
Frustration's Firepower Index: Taldain
lacrossedeamon replied to Frustration's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Just because we the readers don't see her doing anything in in a very short excerpt told from the POV of a cosmere unaware character is a very flimsy basis for a position. -

So how do we know what her rule actually looks like and that Sixth of the Dusk doesn't show it? -

Would you say that Taldain as seen in White Sand live under her rule? -

This feels as unsubstantiable as saying Taldain has direct access to the MoRaG.
