I'm back. Because I've got a new writing project. I'm not going to be sharing any actual writing(at least not yet) because it hasn't been completely plotted out yet and I'm just writing the beginning so I can feel like I'm doing something. Anyways, now I introduce you to the world of Injection. This is most likely going to be a short story, or a novella at the most. Looking at my idea for it, probably the latter. It's a far-future sci-fi story that has some elements of cyberpunk as well as what you could I guess call chempunk. The main 'magic system' centers around these things called corior particles. But before we get to that, let's get to the history bits. Spoilered for length. That's all for right now. I'll update later on corior particles and Injections and how all that works.

I might be able to help. I've got a couple of stories that could be tweaked a bit for filming. Bit of a big might though.

But the way that hemalurgy works, would that require the spikes to be of the 16 metals? Is that just specific to Scadrial and this is just a different brand of hemalurgy? Am I completely misunderstanding the way hemalurgy even works?

I haven't seen anyone talk about this yet, but

If need be I can be a group of 1 - I probably work better by myself anyways
-
I'd be interested in doing fantasy/epic fantasy
-
Oh my gosh. That closer is perfect. Now immediately interested. As for critique... I don't really have any. Ad someone said above, the prose is better than what I usually write, so I can't really critique it much. Excellent job

Ooh, fun. I have a lot of species, but I'm going to show one.

I have not yet read Perfect State. Do you know where I could find it? I got the three book collection from a BAM near me, and I don't think I saw the Fourth book there

I just finished binge-reading the three Legion novellas, and honestly... I wasn't expecting to love them as much as I did. I went in expecting to be intrigued by the concept of someone who's hallucinations help him solve crimes, but instead I came to love the hallucinations themselves. The ending of Lies of the Beholder was one of the few stories that managed to pull at my heartstrings like it did, especially when he took the photo in the limo. I don't know how Sanderson does it, but my word he's a master at it.

And heres the finale Chapter 9 There you go. That's Broken, by me. Hope you enjoyed it.
-
Is the article specifically about Reckoners or just Sanderson in general? Can't help you with Rsckoners, but if it's just Sanderson, you could use the Dragonsteel logo or Cosmere symbol.

Chapter 8 >:)

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy it.

Chapter 6 Chapter 7

Chapter 5 Also, just FYI for anyone who reads these, the first draft of the story is finished, and it's come out to a rough 16,300 words(a short novella). I might post the remaining chapters tomorrow, or just continue posting one at a time.

BTW, I forgot to mention, but the map has some special stuff going on with it. The thickest lines, that make up the most noticeable shapes, are the landmass that make up the continents. Inside them, the lines are the countries(obviously). The slightly thinner lines outside the continents are actually what the people of Diranell classify as the oceans. These are where the water-dwellers(like the merpeople and aquestrians[might change their name]) live and where they set up their kingdoms. There are 5 continents, and 9 oceans. Just some interesting world building tidbits for whoever is interested.

Chapter 4 Enjoy!

Here's Chapter 3 Chapter 3
-
I don't know if anyone even reads these, but here's Chaoter two, in which we get a glimpse of the magic system: Ethamancy. Chapter 2 Relevant Appendices There's chapter 2. The magic system for this world, Ethamancy, is one that's been through a lot of changes - originally, it was just bad Elemental Magic, then later changed into a magic slightly resembling Ethamancy, only without the Etha. It was only recently that I got the idea to combine a magic fueled by life force with the one already in Diranell. Thus Ethamancy was born. It's still not perfect, and many changes will likely be made, but right now, it's where it needs to be.

Chapter 1 Here's the first chapter, introducing the main character of the story: Herth cad-Dorn.

Thank you!

I'll mostly just be posting one short story as I finish the chapters, so it's not like a real thread where I'll post a whole bunch of different stuff. Anyways, I like mixing genres, and I had this idea for a mystery story set in a fantasy world, so I went ahead and stuck it in an existing world I've been workshopping called Diranell. Here's the map of said world: Spoilers for size This world is definitely the one I've spent the most time on, and I'm very proud of it. But it's expansive, and as such, the story does have an Appendices, which I'll have to add somewhere, and footnotes, which I'm sure I'll have to figure out how to fit in there. Anyways, I'm rambling. Here's the prologue(along with a note to the reader): Prologue Relevant Appendices Pages: Let me know what you think and if yall want more, I guess

Sunlit Man Full Book Reactions (Cosmere Edition)
CuratorOTL IG replied to Chaos's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I just finished this, and it honestly sent me for a bit of a loop. I knew it was going to be more serious, but I did not expect it pull at my heartstrings like that. Definitely my second favorite SP(Beneath Yumi). Cosmere-wise? This gives us some very important bits of information, like BEUs as a measurement in the future. It's also a deeper glimpse of Dawnshards(I havent read the novella, so this is my first glimpse), and how they interact with other forms of investiture, notably sentient kinds. Also, and most importantly, we see Hoid actually being serious and transparent for once. I think the closest we've come to this type of honesty from him is with Shallan in Oathbringer. Anyways, very good book, very well done. Of course, it's Brandon, so that all but guaranteed. -
Theories on Death Rattles
CuratorOTL IG replied to Ascended Grubberfly's topic in Stormlight Archive
This is interesting, because if you take into account various other theories, then it has some huge implications. 1. Theory 1: Kal becomes Honor This one is a big theory. I'm sure I don't need to refresh anyone on this. But if this is true, then that could mean that the 'honor' mentioned is actually 'Honor' as Kal. 2. Theory 2: The Windrunners' 5th Oath There has been a lot of speculation on what the 5th Oath of various Orders is, and people tend to focus on the Windrunners. There have been a lot of theories, but one that stands out is that it will have something to do with Kal saving himself rather than having a heroes sacrifice. 'The choice of Honor is life.' 3. Theory 3: The good guys lose Don't need to explain it, but if this whole mishmash of theories is correct, that would mean that Kal's decision to save himself is what leads to them losing. So how does this all come together? Well, here's my Theory. Kaladin wants to sacrifice himself for somebody- mb his brother Adolin- but he can't because he swears his 5th Oath, saving himself to fight another day, reforming Honor in the process(another Theory altogether). But the one he didn't save was somehow a key to the battle and is what causes the turn of the tide, making them lose. Because Honor chose life over sacrifice.
