  1. "Words of Radiance" is an anagram of "African Redwoods."

      A year or so ago messing around with an anagram generator in a Creative Writing class.

      Shining Silhouette

      That's kinda crazy

      Morningtide

      That brings me way too much joy

  2. We know that Adonalsium created the Rosharan system before the shattering, and thus all life on it, though the planet and system have become heavily influenced by Honor, Cultivation, and Odium by the present time. So it would make sense that the Dawnsingers developed on Roshar in the same way humans developed on Yolen. Scadrial is a special case because it was created directly by Ruin and Preservation, and was based physically and biologically on Yolen.
  3. Calano's Office Bookwyrm opened a Wyrmhole. "I'm ready whenever you are."
  4. Araris was read as an SE player. Now the ensuing investigation to figure out whether I was trolled or not.
  5. I decide to try and figure out what kind of sandwich the sandwich is. Which means it's time for science. But first I need the sandwich.
  6. Avi paled slightly. It's easy to forget, I suppose...when you're a survivor... I hope Death treated them well. And I hope they'll be happy in the worlds to come.
  7. Calano's Office Bookwyrm scanned the dimensional barrier again, but the only way in he could find was the entryway to the Island he had visited before. "We might have to go ask the Lightbringers to take us there," he said. "But are you sure this is where we need to go?"
  8. Clinic: Calano's Office "Not precisely, but if you manage to pierce the barrier, you should be able to find it."
  9. Clinic: Calano's Office "I...didn't find it. But I heard of it. There's an advanced interdimensional organization called the Lightbringers, trapped in an isolated part of the multiverse by Kaos. They have access to a gigantic pool of the Creator's Light called the Origin. I think it takes form as a gigantic underground ocean that envelops half of a planet. But...I didn't get there. I didn't have time, because, stuff is happening here." Bookwyrm looked between Thaidakar and Calano. "I don't know if that does anything. But that's what we have." Bookwyrm stared at the shattered shards of ring on the ground, and tried to hide his utter terror. Tears came to his eyes. They were supposed to be together...why? Why did Kaos have to do this to us? What's the reason for it all?
  10. Happy Birthday!

    I know you were only here for a little bit, but I decided to wish you a good day, anyway.

  11. Clinic: Calano's Office "Emma...dead?" Bookwyrm asked. No...that can't be right...my magic...the wedding... What...what has Kaos done? Bookwyrm hesitated for a moment. Then he spoke. "Calano, look at me; you were not responsible for her death. Kaos killed Emma, no matter who wielded the blade. Now it's up to us to figure out how to stop it." Bookwyrm's Allsight rippled. "It's all coming to a head, isn't it? All so much faster than I thought...the Prison is breaking." Bookwyrm stood, resolute. "What do you need me to do?"
  12. Avi grimaced slightly as she stood up and nodded. She clenched her right hand in a fist, seeing the black mark appear. She sense an object in her mind...and with a slight push... Her midnight black Scythe fell into her hand. It was long; taller than she was. The main leingth of it seemed simple at first, but was carved with an intricate design on closer glance. The head of the Scythe took a curious shape. The main blade was a smooth crescent, with the edge facing outwards, and with a sharp point on both ends. Below that, there was another crescent, smaller, and then a starburst shape where the shaft of the Scythe met the head. It...almost looked like the larger crescent was the shape of Ter'amavi, and the smaller one the shape of Lev'amavi...her homeworld. She nearly teared up, but then shoved down the emotion. It wouldn't do to break down in front of these people, even a little. And even if they were her friends. She smiled contentedly, then dismissed the Scythe. It already felt like a friend. A dangerous friend, to be sure, one that begged you not to use it. But even so. It's weight at the back of her mind was a comfort. She followed Kaeni out of the infirmary, hoping she wasn't going to get yelled at by some medic.
  13. Calano's Office Another mind entered the lobby of the clinic. An unfamiliar one...and, based on Bookwyrm's Allsight, a new one. He sighed. Sparking bad time to arrive in this mess...
  14. Avi nodded encouragingly, but honestly, she wasn't used to the idea that much herself. She'd never really had friends. She'd kept to herself. Her last actual friend had been Kaelim, and it had been years since she'd seen him. It was a strange sensation to have a connection to these people. But also comforting.
  15. The Clinic: Calano's Office Bookwyrm stepped into Calano's office. "I'm here," he said, with a worried look on his face. "What's happening, Calano? What has it all come to?" @CalanoCorvus
  16. Clinic: Lobby "No problem," Bookwyrm said. "But I'd better get an explanation later." Bookwyrm dove into the fray, coating his two swords in Nightfire and carving a path through the skeletons. He flared steel and iron, Pushing and Pulling on any loose metal like bullets through the army. Using his various future sights, he wove through deadly attacks, striking when the time was right. Been a while since I fought this hard. He dismissed his shardblade, and transformed his other sword into a staff-spear that he spun in a circle to destroy the remaining skeletons. In his immediate area, that is... "I know," Bookwyrm said. "I had a vision. I sent him a mental message, but don't know where he is."
  17. The Clinic: Lobby Bookwyrm glanced around and saw Thaidakar and...was that TAAron?...fighting a horde of skeletons. He jumped up to chase after them, and gestured for Lark and Platypus to follow. Bookwyrm hadn't seen TAAron in a long while...not since the wedding. Seems like an age ago, now... "Thaidakar!" Bookwyrm called as he summoned his Shardblade in his left hand, and his other sword in his right. "What's going on? Do you need help?" @Thaidakar the Ghostblood @The Aspiring Archivist @Being of Cacophony @UnfortunatelyNamed
  18. Island on a Distant World Bookwyrm turned to Lark's distressed question. "What? What's happ-" A vision struck him. One of finality. Something was happening. Bookwyrm spun to Revli. "We need a way out. Now." Revli looked startled, but then she slung the cylinder of Light off her back and handed it to Bookwyrm. "With one of your skills, using this much Light, you should be able to pierce the Barrier temporarily. I do not know what's happening, but if you need to go, go." "Keep the Origin safe," Bookwyrm said. "We always have," Revli replied. "We'll be waiting for your eventual return." Bookwyrm screwed off the lid of the cylinder and stuck his hand into the Light. It flooded him with energy. He grabbed Lark and Platypus by their arms, then shoved them into interdimensional space. He pulled them to the barrier. Then, he channeled the extra Light inside him into a piercing ray that tore a temporary gap in the Kaos energy. Once he had access to the wider multiverse, he immediately drew himself to the Clinic. The Clinic: Lobby Bookwyrm, Lark, and Platypus appeared out of nowhere. Bookwyrm immediately sent a mental message to Calano. I'm here. @CalanoCorvus
  19. Okay, I left for too long and I'm lost. @Amanuensis, did you want me to scan Mat?
  20. "It was a rare ability to start with, isolated to a few small families with the right ancestry...But now, it's because most of the people with the potential to access the ability are dead."
