This Herald, of course, being Kaladin.
I had this discussion with someone a few days ago, so I'll summarize it here;
Jezrien dies, Kaladin replaces him.
Stormfather dies, many believe Syl is replacing him as the Honor-Sliver Godspren, as that Honor outside of Retribution had to go somewhere.
Now; my questions begin. Kaladin would now hold a Nahel Bond with Syl, the new Godspren, what does this do to him? He's a Windrunner of the highest capacity, so this couldn't simply make him a Bondsmith, right?
This is where my thoughts split- either his bond having the nature of a Bondsmith, and his Honorblade giving him the Windrunner abilities, or him being a Windrunner with a Bondsmith-Natured Surge of Adhesion. Just wanted to hear other people's thoughts on this (Or be informed of any misconceptions I have with how these things work)
