    Stormlight Chapter Arch

    That crack has been there since WoK Chapter 1

    Ok, thanks!

    (regardless of which heral is in the second spot)

    Yeah, I meant just above the second spot.

    If it has meaning, it's likely just foreshadowing for what we saw happened during WaT. But I cannot find a WoB that specifically addresses the crack in the early books.

    I've just been trying to associate it with a specific character or event... Ulim maybe? that's a stretch... Only other thing I can think of is like the Oathpact or Ishar's sanity.

    Was it there in the prequel or prologue?

    Stormlight Chapter Arch

    in Cosmere Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Clarkmon22

    Somewhat related to thread about the Chapter Arches by @Green Hoodie Mistborn, but seperate enough to start another thread:

    I was reading that thread about the Chapter arches, and went back to look for when the crumbling started, when I realized that the "crumbling" actually started with a little crack that went all the way back to WoR at least (I'm rereading it and left my copy of WoK at home)

    Does this crack represent anything? Was there already a thread about this and I didn't look hard enough? Is cereal a soup? 

    These are all questions that I have no answers to, I am simply asking them to spark conversation.

     EDIT: You can't really see the crack in this picture, it's above the second Herald's head

    Hey, y'all, I saw @Miyabi did this last year and nobody has done it yet, so:

    Who's coming to Dragonsteel Nexus this year????

    (I am)

    And, optionally, what are you cosplaying as?

    (I'm debating whether or not to stick to the Ball theme or not (even though I can't go)... I'm stuck between mistcloack-duster or formal E1 attire...)

    Also, if somebody wants to schedule meetups and stuff, this might be a good thread

    Could Hoid...?

    Maybe, but we see Wit using metal for his Allomancy in WoR. We do not know if he can even convert or genericize investiture like Nomad. The only thing we do know they have in common is the inability to physically injure others (which Hoid does not mind, but Nomad calls a Torment). It's possible some or many of these effects only occur after the Vessel no longer holds the Dawnshard. We just don't yet have enough information, in my opinion, to conclude what effects they will both share, or how those effects wll be expressed.

    Brandon Sanderson

    Let's talk about the Torment for a second. Hoid would not call what has happened to him a Torment. Hoid, by holding a Dawnshard, was made permanently unable to cause physical harm to other beings. Eating meat makes him nauseous (if he is somehow able to eat it, and a lot of the times he just can't). That is because of the nature of the Dawnshard that he held actively warping and changing his spirit. He would not name it this. Nomad has named what has happened to him, a Torment. This is not a term that you can universally apply as a magical aspect of something. This is Sigzil saying "this terrible thing happened to me". And indeed what is happening to Sigzil is on a level beyond what happened to Hoid. So therefore perhaps other arcanists would say, "Yes, these are an aspect of holding a Dawnshard and Torment is the right way", but that word is loaded. That word has meaning, and someone is naming it this. You are not gonna run into a large set of people- there are only four Dawnshards- and you're not gonna run into a large set of people that have held one, so there may be no consensus even in-world to what these are called, and if they are Torment or blessings or what they are. Holding a Dawnshard will warp your soul. It's so much Investiture, it is so powerful, that you cannot hold one even briefly without it having a permanent effect upon you.

    So does it warp their Intent to match it's own as well?

    Not a safe deduction. Hoid cannot Skip (that's why we see him using Perpendicularities). We do not yet know why Zellion can. WoB.

    Questioner

    Is there a specific reason as to why Hoid cannot Skip, but Nomad can?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yes, there is a specific reason for that. I'll get into it someday. Let's just say the Skipping started because of a certain event, that probably I won't write a book to talk about, but you will get an answer to that someday I hope. So it's a RAFO, but a RAFO with a little bit of a promise.

    He can still theroretically use his other powers to fuel whatever the dawnshard gave him, right?

    I do play Zelda (haven’t gotten to tears of the kingdom yet but I’ve played most others) and I’ve been eying hollow knight but haven’t played yet 

    Nice, nice. have you beaten BotW?

    I think the drink that rock was making but Huio (or one of Lopens other cousins) changed it sounded pretty good. The stew would be a close second. 

    I'm sorry. I forgot the final option. Vyre's BLOOD (brought to a simmer with some basil and thyme)

    Hi all!

    Posted · Edited by Clarkmon22

    Hi! Welcome to the Shard, @cosmos3108!

    First of all, you never need to STOP reading the Cosmere. The Cosmere is Life. The Cosmere is Everything. 

    In all seriousness, I have read Mistborn (1-8) at least 20 times (1 book every other day), and trust me, you find something new each time. 

    Now, my questions for you...

    Which Cosmere food do you most want to try: chouta, Horneater stew, Horneater lager, or Lift’s pancakes?

    What’s your wildest Cosmere theory you secretly want to be true?

    What's your favourite Wayne quote?

    last but definitely second most important:

    do you play Zelda or Hollow Knight (Have you played Silksong yet???)? if not, what do you play/do in your free time?

    Sorry if I'm insane. most people (aka nobody) get(s) used to it
