  1. After the Denth-incident I'm very suspicious of whatever a character claims to be the truth.
  2. Good catch ! Since i figured that out myself i like to think that all of the remaining Heralds were at the feast. Makes sense considering the parshendi presence. They may have quit being heralds, but I believe they were there to watch over the other humans - who were about to sign a treaty with the "voidbringers". I don't think that they wanted to miss such a significant event.
  3. Sadeas wants to betray the king, conquer the Alethi and invade Ja Keved, claiming he is doing "God's" work ? He gotta be influence by Odium ! PS: Shallan's spren is a slightly retarded puddle of geometric forms +1
  4. I gotta go with Shallan on this one. In the Shallan Reading she's in the middle of some bloody corpses ( including her mother ) while her father tells her to forget everything and hugs her, but she says monsters shoud'nt be held in love or something along those lines. There a lots of possibilities: 1) Her father killed those people + mother and by monster she's refering to him 2) Her father killed those people, because the killed his wife in during a break-in or smt 3) Shallan can somehow go berserk when someone she loves is in danger and killed those people because they hurt her mother ( if you keep this in mind, that explains how she killed her father who probably had a shardblade when he hurt her brothers ). Because she killed them she thinks of herself as a monster. Quote 1: "Father stepped over the body of a woman in white. Little blood there. It was the other men doing most of the bleeding. Mother lay face down so Shallan couldn't see the eyes, the horrible eyes." Quote 2: "Pretend it never happened," her father whispered, he wiped something wet from her cheek, his thumb came back red. "I'll protect you." Quote 3: " No... no... This affection wasn't right. A monster should not be held in love, a monster who killed, who murdered. " PS: Here's the link : http://tinyurl.com/kwlloo6
  5. He actually changed the title to ''Skybreaker'' ( Source https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17250961-skybreaker )
  6. Personally i hope that we'll see more of Amaram. He has the potential to be a very interesting character ! In the sample chapters he was somehow connected with Gavilar and there's a good chance of history with Jasnah. He could the ' i want redemption for my sins '-guy, because unlike Sadeas he had a pretty good reputation in his Army and was described as honorable. I imagine he saw himself forced to his horrible doings, because of the corruption and alethi education in general .. he just couldn't understand how someone could give up such a precious thing and leave it to some unkown, less skilled soldier.Thinking he could save more lives than the other guy he took it for himself. The exact opposite of Journey before destination. Maybe after meeting a changed Dalinar and getting beaten up by Kaladin he realizes that there's another way.
  7. I kinda got the impression that being a lighteye is different from just having blue/green eyes ( in our world ). It would be interesting to see if the eyecolors would stay "bright" ( in a vivid way ) if there where no highstorms or would revert back to just blue/green. That would expain whether or whether not the stormlight in the area fuels the eyes of the Brightlords.. maybe because of their bloodline they're able to unconsciously use a little bit of it.
  8. Is it just me or do these shadow things sound like the essence of midnight ( oily shadowbeasts in Dalinars vision ) ?
  9. For me the biggest ''What the heck''-Moment is quite easy to describe : Elantris was my first Sanderson book and after I finished it, it knew Brandon was a genius. So i ordered all the other books he published to that point and started reading. And in EVERY single book was a person who was called HOID. The second Sanderson book i read was Warbreaker and when he introduced the storyteller i almost flipped my desk. I then consumend Mistborn and after finding another Hoid there, i swore to name my firstborn after Mr. Sanderson.
  10. I don't know if someone already mentioned this, but it's described many times that the thunderclasts are made out of stone/freed themselves out of stone - even stated outside of the death cries. Apparently that's kind of a big deal .. and you know that the Shin think stones are sacred and you should not walk on them. You could dismantle this saying that they knew what's up and were so afraid of the thunderclasts that they intentionally or accidently made up a religion out of their fear after some ages.
  11. I think somewhere in the first book Kelsier states that he went so some balls where the Lord Ruler was present, but he never showed up when Vin went there. So I guess he planned out every detail of what he would change in the world, considering the Well "recharging" soon. Before that he probably attended the most important festivals, read some books and meditated in his secret room, that he designed like a old terris-huts. I can imagine he also sent around his Obligators, commanding them to make some experiments on hemalurgy ( which all failed according to Sazed in Book 3 ).

    Wayne

    Hey Guys ! After I re-read Alloy I got this idea that Wayne is actually much more than he seems to be. In the Ars Arcanum you can find this table with the 16 different metals and their allomantic and feruchemic purpose. I guess I'm not the only one who was surprised to read that aluminum gives feruchemists the power to store identity - but the important thing is that Wayne seems really good at impersonating other people. Like the officer in the police department or when he played the old lady at the showing of House Tekiel's new wagon. He showed a lot of dedication to those roles, he even thought like them and had a internal dialogue in character. It's just a silly little theory but maybe Wayne is a full feruchemist, who uses the power of aluminum to enhance his skills as "performer". I think he claimed that his father was a "pure" terrisman, so maybe his bloodline is more likely to give him a broader spectrum of feruchemic powers than the one of Wax. I know that he told Marasi, that Wax saved his life after he accidentally killed a father of a family, because he got cocky with stealing ( other forced him to do it ), but maybe this is just another identity he stored. What do you guys think about this ? I appreciate any input ! English isn't my first language so if there are any uncertainties - please ask
