  1. A figure spoke to Agony, cloaked in the darkness at the back of the cave. "That's some gruesome work."
  2. I nod and pretend to understand what you are referencing, having only read the first book. "I choose Bartholomew to serve as my champion."
  3. No one, having noticed you, pulls in your spaceship with a tractor beam and scolds you thoroughly.
  4. Lightweaver + Feruchemist to figure out how to fly an airplane = portable space laser.
  5. I awake from hibernation and appear before @Ookla the Wasing of Want and @Ookla the Wallfacer (you changed your name!) "Just so we're clear, we're choosing a single magic system for the champion of the contest?"
  6. Yeah you're right I didn't realize quite how long that would be when I posted it. I feel like it was Hemalurgy mostly because of how it was specifically mentioned that a bit of the sword broke off and is still in the heart, though I don't entirely see what the Hemalurgy could be doing to the demon if not trapping it in some way, placed intentionally by the prophet to do that. I had the thought of how it would be neat if finding the silver mine somehow led to all the horrible events, but looking at it now I think it was found three years after she married, so the river would have already started curdling at that point but the disease wouldn't have appeared.
  7. Don't mind if I just brain dump all my thoughts on this here: So I'm going to organize what I think is going on here: 300 years prior, the prophet went around healing people from the plague before trapping the demon at the capital by stabbing its heart with a hemalurgically charged sword. This caused the three rivers of the demon's blood to flow. Fast forward, December's mother is an offworlder, and December inherited the eyes of that people. On the day that she met Hoid and married Bark, something happened that locked her in that time should she die. At the capital, a duke betrays the king, somehow initiating the release of the demon. The demon apparently spews fire into the sky, and the rivers start to foul and clot up. A war of secession is started in the absence of the king, and the demon is eventually fully freed, drying up the rivers entirely. The fouling of the rivers causes a magical disease that December is immune to due to her offworld heritage. When she eventually dies, she is sent back in time to live out her life again. I predict she will by the end of the book need to figure out a way to stop the demon's release in order to break the cycle, which happens about three months after the day she is reborn.
  8. I'm back! Wheeeeeeeee!

    ...for now. I expect to gradually return over the next couple of days. 

    And I got 292 notifs so I am not checking a single one. I honestly expected it to be more after being gone for 2.5 weeks. So... I assume I missed some stuff? Anybody mind telling me anything important that happened/needs my attention?
