  1. @Moogle,yes I have read it, but don't agree with you there. Basic lashing is a PROCESS of surgebinding gravity by which a specific effect is achieved. You Do a process, you don't Save a process. If Regrowth is like that then the term used should be stormlight not Regrowth since the KR would need to 'Save' stormlight to 'Do' Regrowth/basic lashing. If on the other hand Regrowth is a fabrial as Swimmingly suggests, like a soulcaster, then the term 'save Regrowth' is somewhat palatable. @Swimmingly, do we have WoB that Regrowth is a fabrial?
  2. I don't know if this has been discussed before but I noticed a curious use of phrase in tWoK in Dalinar's vision when KR heals him. When his wife in the vision asks the KR to heal him again, she replies that she should save 'REGROWTH' for others who may need it. How can she preserve Growth? If she has sufficient stormlight she should be able to use it since Growth is not a material thing but a name given to a type of surgebinding. May be she wanted to say 'I should preserve stormlight for others'? Or is Regrowth completely different than Growth the surgebinding?
  3. Er... Guys most of the glyphs given on coppermind are in the form of pictograph. I was looking for ... more like klingon. I mean can we write in alethi script, have those glyphs been invented by Sanderson & co? How is it spoken, like english or is it altogether different language?
  4. Thank a lot!
  5. I'm new to this forum, so sorry if this has been asked before, but can anyone please tell me if there's a full list of glyphs anywhere & if yes where? (I mean glyphs for every alphabet, e.g glyph for shash.)
  6. Very much agree with Ryan here. Rowling didn't write the romance part well at all, especially when considering that it's a young adult novel. I mean seriously are teenagers supposed to base their fantasies on how two major canon couples ended up together- one fought through out the series (even in the epilogue where Hermione is berating Ron again!), the other got together in post-break up happy event, Harry and Ginny aren't given much time together at all. Many of the fanfictions have much better character and pairing build up. That said it WAS her debut series, I liked Cuckoo's calling much more, she's more mature as an author.
  7. Hi all. I was just doing a reread of tWoK, came to this scene when Kal goes to apothecary for the 1st time. When he pays, apothecary accuses him of trying to pass off dun spheres. In the very next stanza, we're told that dun & infused spheres were equally valuable. If that is the case, why did the apothecary accuse him in the 1st place? A trivial question I know, just wondered what others thought of it. Is it possible that my book had printing mistake, that there're possibly two different words used in those two stanzas?
