  1. "I warned you!!" The Shrai yells. Bookwyrm's Mind As The Shrai enters Bookwyrm's mind, all it sees is swirling black, perverted light. It fires a bolt of red hate and it leaves a trail that is quickly filled in by the swirling black. The black light strikes back into his mind but is repelled by the red energy. The Shrai can see nothing but stays in the realm of black light.
  2. I think that would be really cool, but we don't know the distance between them (I think) and we don't know if he hit terminal velocity. If someone can calculate that, we can get a lot closer gauge. (Still not as exact as I would like, but...) I wouldn't have even thought of that. Thanks Tamriel!
  3. so, i just used an online calculator for a golf ball (i know, not the same as a rock so there will be some difference) and when it's mass is 0.17 kg, cross-sectional area 19.63 cm^2, coefficient of drag 0.389 (auto generated by calculator) and acceleration 30x the amount auto generated (i assume natural force of Earth's gravity) the terminal velocity is 327.46 m/s (slightly lower than the speed of sound, which makes sense, we never hear sonic booms in the books). However, 30 Rosharan "g"s are different from Earth "g"s. 30 Roshar "g"s are about 21 Earth "g"s so that will be 274 m/s on Earth. I did try to use @alder24's numbers from earlier but I might have done it wrong. If you see anything wrong with this, feel free to tell me. I could be wrong but I think this if close to accurate.
  4. Island on a Distant World "ANSWER ME!!" The Shrai shouts, furious. "I will invade your mind if I must!"
  5. The Space for Travel The Shrai strolls in an expanse of nothing when it is suddenly ejected into a field of flowers. Island on a Distant World The Shrai forms on an island, wondering where it is. It walks over to where Bookwyrm fell and asks, "What the freedom is happening here?!" @The Bookwyrm

  8. i forgot about that. thank you. I'm still young and out of my league when it comes to fancy science stuff.
  9. Noodle's 19.62 is in cm^2 while alder's is in m^2. after you multiply Alder's by pi, you get 0.19 cm^2 (ish) so someone is off by two digits. i think the problem is conversion somewhere Also, I have a rock we can test @Wits instant noodles EDIT: ninja'd
  10. i see. i lost. Wizard is being mean to me
  11. i know the context it makes it only slightly less confusing.

  18. i mean... it ruins some quotes. but not all
  19. He used his supply curves as supply lines. And his supply polygons as cages.
