    More a good idea that seemed worse and worse the longer I thought about it, at which point I'd already typed it. Seriously, though, the way they screw up the files in those things, that might be the only way you can do it. I don't know. Stop typing, Swim. You're making a fool of yourself. Gah.

    I've never heard the word Threnody before. Within a day of learning about it here, I read it in a the third book of Brent Week's Night Angel trilogy. Funny little coincidence.

    Get a computer, download Audacity, and play the voice memo back through the iPhone into an Audacity recording. Export as mp3 and post. This is certainly the best way to do this and will not result in more work than it should or a loss in quality. I know this because I neither possess an iPhone nor have any idea of the actual way to do it. Yes, this idea isn't overcomplicated at all.

    This game to win, life. Less the cost of lives spent here, Lifeless legions rise. This life but a game, Costing our lives, less our Breath. I weep at our loss. Lifeless live, Breathing. Lives lost to the savage game, Their Breath persisting.

    Ehhh... Roshar is kind of... Apocalyptic and hellish by earth standards. I mean, living as a fairly wealthy Azish or Alethi can't be too bad, but still... Hurricanes every week. No thanks.

    Welcome! Please enjoy yourself!

    Yes, it was just me. Everything was looking small and squared-off to me for a few minutes there. I must have overdone the coffee a little.

    Hi. As you can see, I am Kaladin, with my dark eyes and everything! They're glowing, son... SHHHHHHH

    Only when infusing Stormlight though. And I wouldn't be surprised if Stormlight burns it right off. So basically, it works as long as he doesn't infuse.

    Brothers, embrace the way of simplicity. Clutter not your minds nor scripture, for our order need only four words for holiness: I am a stick.

    Because you've gone axe-crazy, the precepts by which you accepted your torture denied, so you know that each and every death was not just your burden, but that you had no obligation to kill in the first place? Something in Szeth snapped. He doesn't blink so he won't hear screams. These are signs of a PROBLEM.

    Oh, I see. Yeah, I can see Hoid absentmindedly drawing an apprentice into some sticky situations, given his sheer luck (perhaps feruchemical luck) and personality.

    Maybe? I though it was for the same reason humans used them for currency - they're so ridiculously prevalent on Roshar, and you've gotta use them for something

    By the way, a T-shirt with Jasnah's face in a religious and "What Would Jasnah Do?" needs to be a thing. Along with "I Am Offend!" and "I Am A Stick!".

    Yes, the interred would have a bush planted above their corpse. Small sticks would be broken off from that bush, and kept in a ceremonial stick-holder by loved ones in the shape of an unlit fire, demonstrating that that their deceased family are now One With The Stick, Not The Fire.

    The temple will be made of sticks, with hidden speakers slowly chanting, "I am a stick. I am a stick. I am a stick." A giant glass ball with a stick suspended within shall be our idol, and a small photo of Brandon Sanderson will be affixed to the bulletin board by the door.

    The mobile versions suddenly seems...boxier. Hard to say, really. Smaller content boxes, less beveling. On the other hard, the edges on my phone seem sharper too, so maybe I'm crazy.

    Graves does use them near the end, but I think they're less Chekhov's gun then element of the world. In other words, if they are such a gun, they've multiple shots.

    I think I'll continue to try not to trip the swear filter, because, while it's funny, I think this forum has tempered my language immensely.

    You're Smauging up the air with your Shirely awful puns.

    If you read through, you notice Rock using "he" instead of "it" when he points to just about everything. We've had similar discussions based on him calling the sphere in the surgebinding-testing chasm scene "he" rather than "it". Personally, I agree that it's just a sociolinguistic thing, or one of Rock's quirks.
  23. Swimmingly
    Fixed that for you
  24. Swimmingly
    That's kind of the point

    I think I should mention that exautionspren don't actually look like birds, more like huge blurry forms that circle like vultures.
