Absolutely brilliant!

"I'm a stick"!

Next time I get to play DS2 I will have to pay more attention. Great catch btw!

I can't wait to finish WAT. Still have all the secret projects to read as well until the next book releases.

Thanks @JustQuestin2004 for the info on Yumi and WAT. Still need make my way to those, but not long now.

Besides her world-hopping appearance in the epilogue at the end of The Lost Metal. Have we had any confirmation as to what MeLaan is up to or where she's heading?

@JustQuestin2004 Thanks for the feedback. As far as we know those metals are still unknown in Roshar. It's very interesting that the Allomantic Metals don't translate to Fabrial effects on a one-to-basis. However Malatium and Electrum could also have curious effects on Fabrials if the Rosharians were able to get their hands on them. Maybe a friendly world-hopping kandra could supply it? Who knows. I've seen some interesting theories floating around regarding nicrosil and other allomantic/feruchemical metals being applied to fabrials. As of yet, we still having seen any fabrial interact with the spiritual real. Maybe a Bondsmith with Artifabrian tech could find the key to making a new kind of spiritual connection fabrial.

So, I've been giving this a lot of thought lately and I needed to hear some thoughts on this. Basically, we all know how powerful a Fullborn (TLR) can be. That being said, with the advancements in Hemalurgy seen in TLM, I can imagine that we could be heading towards the creating of another Fullborn via Hemalurgy. From what I can remember Harmony has made sure compounding is restricted to the Spiked, however, Discord might have a different view on this. It would be interesting to know of the draining of the Bands of Mourning and the advances in Hemalurgy could lead to another Fullborn. Would this be a secret project for the Set, the Ghostbloods or maybe someone else? Who knows? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I'm not sure if this has been talked about before, but I recently thought of how a time manipulating fabrial could be created akin to the time bending devices in Scadrial. Potential Spoilers for THE LOST METAL. So, my theory is very simple. We know logic Spren are what make the time fabrials (clocks and watches) work. As for the composition of the fabrials cage, we are still not sure which metal it uses. However, if an artifabrian was to get their hands on some Cadmium and Bendalloy, theoretically speaking, they could manipulate time by slowing or speeding it as long as they gave enough investiture to feed it. Moreover if you were to combine metal cages, you may be able to increase or decrease the area of effect by using pulling and pushing metals. I believe this could have interesting applications for Arch 2 or even the wider Cosmere. What are you thoughts on this?

@Terrisman Excellent question. Interesting answers. I'm very curious to see what that RAFO will be when a character is able to burn or ingest a highly invested metal. Thank you so much for the tips @alder24

SPOILERS for ROW! If you haven't read it please come back when you do. With that out of the way, I have an interesting question. When Nightblood chipped Ishar's Honorblade in ROW, we never saw what happened to that chip. Theoretically speaking, assuming you'd be able to find it and not slice your fingers, what would happen in the following scenarios: 1) Allomantically burning it with Lerasium (Brandon said you might be able to do this)? 2) Using it as a Hemalurgic Spike? 3) Using it as a metal mind? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
