I actually read the coppermind pages about Hoid and Lightweaving before posting, and didn't see any citations on Lightweaving. I read the entire interview that was linked to a couple posts up, and Brandon seems a little ambiguous as to whether it's the same system, or a similar system. As I recall, Hoid had a scroll containing the secret of Lightweaving in the sample chapters, so would it be possible that it was instructions for how to jury-rig the Roshar Lightweaving to work for Hoid?

In regards to using Feruchemical steel for FTL, isn't there some sort of exponential curve when tapping a Feruchemical ability?

Seems reasonable, but I'm still not entirely convinced that you need to visit Shadesmar every time you Soulcast. Edit: I've read those sample chapters, but they are unpublished, and for all we know it's the same sort of system.

Hello there. I was basically just lurking around the forums until the shardhunt made me get an account, and so I thought I'd post my first theory. Basically, I've been thinking that we know that Hoid has lightweaving\can lightweave, and the only reference to lightweaving we have in published books is the order of Knights Radiant. I theorize that it might be something similar to what Szeth is, what with his powers of a Windrunner, yet not being one. Another thing that I think supports this is the fact that the illusion surge is called just that, nothing related to light or weaving. So, any thoughts? If this has already been posted, I apologize, but my phone is practically my only connection to the internet, and not the best way to search through the forums. Also, can anyone tell me how to get my first tag in the thread title? I read about how to do it somewhere, but I've forgotten.

I think I'll give you an upvote just for that title.

In regards to aluminum transmuting metals, I was always under the impression that it burned all the metals instantly, but then channeled the investiture into some nether realm.

It's an interesting idea, but I personally think that it might just be coincidence. Going by the chronology page on the wiki the events in Warbreaker take place before any of the ones in The Way of Kings, and unless Kaladin can somehow travel back in time and become returned even though he wasn't born on Nalthis, it just wouldn't be possible.
