  1. H is a placeholder letter to balance out a word, like in Nohadon. So Honor is as symmetrical as Nohadon. So it's really Ronor, but the R is pronounced as an H, so it's Honor.
  2. Hey, why are you capitalizing intent, huh?
  3. Syl bonded him too young, he died in his first battle. While it doesn't say specifically that he was her first bondmate, it's pretty firmly implied imo. I mean, unless she had the misfortune to bond multiple people who died shortly, and the first ones somehow didn't cause the trauma of the last one.
  4. As soon as they remember how to keep from bumping into walls Or there's Nale, with thousands of years of experience...
  5. Yeah, it's an interesting theory, but the Honorblades are really pretty small Splinters of Honor. They also form pretty shallow bonds to any non-Herald holders. Bonding all ten of them would give you some nice surgebinding powers, but the amount of active investiture flowing through you wouldn't be enough to bring you close to the amount that made up Honor.
  6. This is the part I can agree with
  7. Right, but they'd also already have experienced members, including a storming Herald, so it isn't particularly noteworthy. She only bonded once before, to an older man who died his first skirmish, causing her to go comatose because she wasn't ready for the emotional backlash.
  8. I think all spren of that type died in the Recreance.
  9. Not sure what you mean there?
  10. As others have said, it depends on the spren type. Most of them seem to believe that the spren who bond will end up being killed, just some are thinking it's worth it. Some of the honorspren are still very against it, but others are coming around. The inkspren are very against the idea and Ivory took on that name specifically to thumb his nose at his brethren. The Cryptics are actively trying to get bonds (we know of at least 4 people attempted), and don't much care if they die for it. The cultivationspren had several candidates in mind, and specifically sent Wyndle to bond with Lift. We don't really see much of the Truthwatchers, but since we have two of them (sorta), I would guess they're in favor of the bond. The highspren are all for it, since their humans never broke their Oaths. I don't think we've seen any others for sure, so far.
  11. Kandra would become Mistborn like anyone else that ingested it.
  12. I always pictured them as similar to dirigibles, myself. The upward lift is powered by the Allomancy, the forward motion is powered by the engines.
  13. Since at least two of them are already false by WoB, I'm not concerned
  14. NO. That's right up there with people believing Odium is Passion and Timbre=Eshonai in my most hated ideas list
  15. Given previous discussions, I'm going to want to see exactly what he said.
  16. 1. No, he didn't. 2. Even if he did (which he didn't) that doesn't mean Dalinar will have the same small word count. Again, that is your interpretation, not what he said.
  17. Again: Brandon said Dalinar would have a lesser role in Dalinar, not a "very very small" one. That's your interpretation, not what Brandon said. And he had more words in WoK than Shallan.
  18. This has come up a few times before
  19. Stormlight doesn't seem to have an aspect that lends itself to immortality, but we're only on book 3/10 so that could easily change. According to Brandon, death of the Radiant doesn't substantially hurt the spren, as long as the Oaths are unbroken. They experience trauma along the lines of anyone losing a loved one, but it doesn't cause them to go deadeye.
  20. I pointed that out a few times, actually Yeah, it makes sense that he will only have the biggest role in his book. That's been the case with every character so far. They have one book where they have the most words, and then the others they have less. Rude. But also probably true.
  21. Era 2 happens sometime after Book 5. It might be in the gap or a little after. Brandon's said that he's not planning an Avengers Assemble type thing. There will be some characters showing up in the finale, the ones that survive and figure out how to be immortal, but not necessarily all of his characters. He's more showing pivotal moments in the history of the cosmere than assembling a task force.
