Walter The Moral started following Xisis's Communication Device and Relativistic Light Speed in a Bubble
-
Do we think that the speed of light in a speed bubble is the same for someone inside a bubble as it is for someone outside? How could this be checked? The only way I can think of is putting a speed bubble inbetween two mirrors, and measuring the number of times the light bounces off each mirror. This same experiment could be conducted from inside the bubble, and the speeds could be compared. What consequences would this have? We already know that there's some magic which prevents Blue and Redshift from happening, but what other things could be caused?

I reread the chapter with the Skybreaker, and the description of the purplish hue is gone. Now our only evidence that he was a singer was that he spoke with "an unnatural air". I don't know if this means that he's no longer a singer, or if Brandon just doesn't want it to be as obvious.

In the book, Dusk seems to describe the emberdark as an infinite deep, without a bottom. It also doesn't seem to exert any friction or buoyant forces on uninvested items. We know that it's at least very deep from the skullsnake which was so deep that Dusk mistook its size. However, Starling doesn't seem to really care if she falls into the emberdark, saying that Dajer would be able to fish her out while falling. How would she be rescued from the unsea? Can they travel through it in a sort of submarine?

Technology between Era 3 and Era 4

It can also heal lost limbs, and bring you back after a full explosion. At that point, it's past natural healing, and is probably more similar to Radiant Healing (bringing the physical aspect in line with the spiritual aspect through the lens of the cognitive aspect). -
Xisis's Communication Device
Walter The Moral replied to Walter The Moral's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I hadn't considered a speed bubble. I don't think it would affect the comm singal, because then you still have the problem of reaction time. People in Silverlight would react to things 10 times slower than those outside, so they'd probably have to communicate from within a speed bubble. -
At the end of the book, Xisis makes contact with those on First of the Sun using a device that can communicate through the emberdark. The part that intrigues me is that, despite Silverlight having 10:1 time dilation, Xisis speaks completely normally for the Eelakins. When Kelsier spoke to Shallan in WaT, the time dilation had an effect on the communication, which the Seon had to make up for, but I don't think the communication device could have done that (Xisis would have to take a long time to answer, which we didn't see). How does the communication occur with the time dilation? Is this something anyone could do with a communication device, or just a dragon?

How would a Full Feruchemist with all metals fight?
Walter The Moral replied to Trusk'our's topic in Mistborn
Bleeder shot 4 people in less than a second at the start of AoL though. She was able to aim, shoot, and move around the room incredibly quickly. -
I really like the first idea, but I don't have much to comment on. Talking about this though, I don't think that the Storage Space for Hemalurgy is much of a problem. You'd still only be able to put one charge in it, though you would be able to put a more powerful "power" into it. Talking about that, do you think any of TLR's powers could fit inside a normal Hemalurgic spike? He was incredibly powerful, because of his Lerasium, and the fact that he was a Sliver, so could all of that power fit inside a normal sized Hemalurgic Spike?

I don't think many Singers would choose to have children outside of Mateform though, as they wouldn't have any want to when not in Mateform. -
Stormlight 5 interlude reading (cosmere spoilers)
Walter The Moral replied to The flying spider's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I have an important question! Dyel's mother is a radiant, and therefore can't leave Roshar because of her Connection to it. What did those Iriali do? Did they break their oaths, or did they stay on Roshar? -
Stormlight 5 interlude reading (cosmere spoilers)
Walter The Moral replied to The flying spider's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Could that imply that all the departures of the Iriali were because of rising tentions on the planet? -
The bubble collapses when the Misting leaves, sadly. So that might have been cool, but from what we know it's not possible
-
There were some Inquisitors who could burn duralumin in HoA, but they had to have spikes from Mistborn, because they couldn't test for Mistings.

I don't understand why you would say that Wayne is in Slytherin? He doesn't seem cunning or ambitious at all. -
Why could lift heal people in RoW?
Walter The Moral replied to Walter The Moral's topic in Stormlight Archive
But she couldn't use Abrasion, so that means that the negation of powers at least partially effected her.
