PunSpren

Thanks Ill check the discord! I called a few independents and didnt have any luck. But ill keep trying! Resale market on the books is horrible :/

Hey folks! I like many, missed out on the ability to get a Signed Wind and truth copy. Which saddens me greatly as I have all the rest signed. Today on light day I was able to snag a signed and numbered BOM. If I was trying to find a place to do a trade with someone where would yall recommend to go ? I dont want to come off scammy or be scammed myself. Any ideas ?

If I remember correctly the map maker issak is the royal cartographer of the alethi throne, so both theylen city maps and kohlinar maps make sense, the annotations on the map are navani's but the map itself would still be issak. I'll try to decipher it from the glyph key in oathbringer

Looks like everyone was right! @StormingTexan @BlackYeti @dendrophobe Questioner [PENDING REVIEW] Is Mraize's strange chicken Invested? Like the birds of Sixth of the Dusk? Brandon Sanderson [PENDING REVIEW] It is an Aviar.

Thanks!

Did we have confirmation ettmetal was harmonium before this signing? I know it was inferred but thats exciting to see

One of the main reasons i was thinking about this was trying to tease out why Renarin hasn't light weaved yet, And i wonder if he isnt able to access it at all. As in, Does the corruption of sja-Anat replace honors investiture and now glys is essentially a cultivation/ odium spren. If hes not a replace and it is an add to, that should mean Renarin has access to voidbinding!

So this is an Idea that has been bouncing around since my first read through, and is heavily influenced by To start we know spren are bits of power, shaped by the cognitive definitions of physical realm inhabitants ( human, listeners, etc) For the sake of this idea i will only focus on true spren ( bond capable spren) These spren are made from a combination of Honor and Cultivations power. Some are more honor, some are more cultivation. Now with the Advent of the everstorm It seems Odium has greater ability to effect/ invest in Roshar. So his generals/unmade may all be made more powerful due to this advent. So Sja-Anat can now effect greater spren, spren with more investure. So here is the question/ what i am thinking. Sja-Anat makes a connection between a spren and Odium, inserting his investiture into the touched spren. In the case of true spren, does the touch of Sja-Anat insert odium investitures such that they are formed from the power of three shards, or does it replace the investiture of one of the shards, or both? I can think of a number of questions id want to ask Brandon to see if we can start teasing this out, what does the shard think about this ?

Heck yes please!

I gotta say I loved Oathbringer, but for me its huge moments hit me hard on the melancholy side of things, rather than some of the awesome highs of Words of Radiance. Oathbringer was deep, opened up hard subjects without concrete answers and was written, and approached beautifully, where its words hit hard they evoked sadness, worry, and gasps of disbelief. Some of the bridge 4 chapters made me cry. But I cant think of any chapters ( other than Kal coming back to hearthstone) that made me shake with excitement like Words of Radiance did. Oathbringer was very much a different book than I expected and that makes me quite excited for the future of this series

I had noticed those, I think they are the glyph for Issak ? the map maker?

I havent seen it in the few posts i read of this thread but it seemed really clear to me when listening to this bit that Eshonia WAS the comet like spren. The voidspren say they listen to the listeners ancestors They have gemhearts, storage Check They can a mind that shapes themselves in the cognitive realm, check They can obsorb investiture from highstorms, (maybe check ?) Equals the making of a spren Dead listeners turn into spren

Like I said earlier your mileage may vary on how you feel about it. But several of the teasers are things im going to be looking for now, rather than being surprised by had i read it through without. Not saying its ruined or anything, Just feels a lot more spoilery than i wanted when reading spoiler free in the the article title. (shrug) I am going to very much enjoy going through this list after ive read it, but going into it i felt the teasers will do my reading experience more harm than heightening the experience for me.
