I'm a Lightweaver!

I knew far before I took any quiz, if you knew me it would be quite obvious, but I ended up taking it recently and got 91% Lightweaver 76% Edgedancer

Quote

"I began life as a thought, a concept, words on a page. That was another thing I stole. Myself. Another time, I was named for a rock... a beautiful one, and one that became completely worthless for my wearing it."

 

-Hoid, The Way Of Kings Chapter 57-Wandersail

I noticed this quote on my third read of TWoK and found it of some note. This sort of touches on the fourth wall which is something that basically never happens in cosmere works-but it seems to happen here.

It technically could be something else, and I'd love to hear opinions. What does this mean...?

Oh, also this which has a small chance of being a fourth wall break as well (But easily could actually mean what it means when taken at face value.)

Quote

"So... Fleet. Was he real?"

"As real as I am."

 

-Kaladin and Hoid respectively, Words of Radiance Chapter 59-Fleet. Fleet is a story by Hoid that in every aspect seems fictional, and this quote was Kaladin asking whether Fleet was real. 

Hoid just seems like the type of person to sneak in a double meaning of that sort. I don't usually suspect this kind of quote, but this in particular feels like something.

Is the gemstone more important than the spren type, and if so does the spren type have any influence over the fabrial's function?

I've always thought that it mattered a lot what kind of spren you used but I was doing research and I can't find anything on spren types affecting a fabrial's function in any way

If anyone has a better article I could read, or a quote from the book to clarify, that would be wonderful.

(Sorry if this was hard to read lol)

I'm bad at these, but I'm commenting to turn on notifications for this thread... these are all amazing WOW

World's End Valentine from OMORI at the moment.

UNDERTALE, my 19th neutral run. I'm trying to get all endings

Celeste

A Short Hike

Chicory: A Colorful Tale

Minecraft

Portal 2

Subnautica: Below Zero

And a lot more, but those are my current mains...

Everyone is talking about this already, but the Stormfather is super off...

AND in addition, someone asked Sanderson about that later and his answer was in a dead serious tone, "What? What do you mean? The stormfather's ALWAYS like that"

I think it would slow them down slightly, but there are other factors like atmostphere that will actually make more of a difference. It would happen but it would be slight. And you could just layer the lashings differently if you wanted to make more or less of a speed difference

Hello and welcome to the shard! It's good to have you here! (also I believe it's Renarlain. It's a great ship)

I've seen it spelled both ways and Rlainarin is what I remember better- although it's probably wrong.

Huh, I haven't thought about that... When I saw the post title I was al ready to give a speech about gaseous investiture and healing but that's not what you're asking

I think that depends on a few things. I've always seen the shardblade wounds as not being missing parts of the spirit exactly, more like corpse parts still attached... so like, not a human spirit anymore, the spirit of an object fused with the human spirit. IF that idea is correct, then yes you would be able to although it would not be the best way of doing it.

Otherwise, I frankly have no idea. I'll think on this.

Part of what I love about the Cosmere is the community- it's inclusive, supportive, welcoming, educating...

It's very much about finding the truth together and studying science together, and I love that.

Oooh, song writing prompt? I like to do this sort of crem

When you see an odd bird that comes out when you wear jewelry outside and call it a jewelspren

Also, when you cut spicy food out of your diet and cover up your safehand for modesty (I did this for months lol)

Also, when you spend 15 hours researching the physics of gaseous investiture only to realize the question you were trying to answer was covered in a WOB back in 2015(PAIN)

Well, it depends on a few things but...

My reccomended order is this:

Mistborn era 1

Secret History

Reread era one with added context if you like (I did and it was even better the seccond time)

Warbreaker

The Way Of Kings and Words Of Radiance

Short cosmere story of some kind, you choose

Mistborn era 2

Oathbringer and Rhythm of War

Yes, definitely!

I love the skyward series, the Alcatraz series, and I've read some of his other work...

Although I primarily focus on the Cosmere, I do read and like everything

Hello!

You may call me Lily or Ielle, and I go by all pronouns.

I've been looking for some time for a smaller scale discussion platform like this one to talk about my favorite series of all time, and I think I found it here...

A little about me:

I'm a proud lightweaver

I own multiple cats and a betta fish

My favorite character is Jasnah or Mayalaran(from what we know of her)

My favorite all time ship is rlainarin

I love to design and memorise alethi glyphs

My favorite allomantic ability is tin

I love to cosplay, and design outfits from books like Stormlight or Mistborn

Anyway, hello, I exist

I hope to be on here pretty often
