eh, my bad, I was so proud of finding this, lol

I think we can actually say that things were discovered in a perfectly reasonable way. During the desolations, and even during the book, people have shards far more powerful than guns. Why invent new weapons when the almighty himself gives you shards? On the other hand, there are no medical shards, and roshar is constantly at war, it makes sense that medicine would have progressed very quickly while other things lag behind.

I didn't see this theory anywhere else, so here goes. Zahel is a worldhopper from Warbreaker, likely Vasher himself. First off, his expressions, "Repeating myself makes me eat the wrong flower." "And dont be green from the ground..Stupid language." Both of these sound very like very Halladan things to say, using colors and flowers, not to mention he apparently is unfamiliar with the language still. Next, the way he dresses. "Long-haired, with a short but scruffy black beard, he wore loose tan clothing tied with ropes." Sounds familiar, especially the bit with the ropes. Apparently he can has a high life sense, likely from having breath, "Zahel awoke, snapping his eyes open, knowing instantly that someone was approaching his room." "The one with that spren Zahel could sense always spinning about. SPOILER Last off, how did Nightblood get to Roshar? Vasher would never leave on another world without him, plus this little bit from Zahel "He expected a voice to speak in his mind as he drifed off. Of course, there wasn't one. Hadn't been one for years." So, what does everyone think?
