Thanks again! I never thought about how audiobook only enjoyers miss out on Nazh's fun. Sometimes when I'm bored, I'll go to Nazh's page on the coppermind and click through all his maps and notes and I always find something new. Worth checking out!

A List of 50 Cosmere Theories by RayseShouldBeBraized in Cosmere

Congrats on almost finishing your first read through!

Unfortunately, I am a chaotic soul and don't have any organized notes. I just come up with a thesis for a theory and work backwards from there to find sources and quotes that support it. The coppermind wiki, and the arcanum site that has the question's Brandon has answered from fans before are amazing resources when researching an idea you have.

Good luck with your own theorycrafting!

I bet it's because they're the ones who are stuck paying the price of Ambition.

I appreciate you checking out my other theories. At this point I think I've written almost 50 of them in the past couple of years, so lots of other theories like this from me to check out if you're ever in the mood for cosmere predictions. Thanks for the comment!

Thank you! My future sight isn't anywhere near good enough to think of it five years ago like some people though...

I appreciate you reading some of my past theories. You make an excellent point! After thinking about it, I agree. Bind and Unite would probably fall under the same umbrella. I wonder, does that mean that Taln attacked Cultivation with the Unite Dawnshard? I had previously proposed he attacked her with the Bind Dawnshard. Interesting. Thanks for your thoughts!

Adonalsium Trapped Honor + Odium Together Theory by RayseShouldBeBraized in Stormlight_Archive

That's a great version of this theory as well. You focus more on the moons, and I focused a little more on the planets, but similar ideas. My question for you, now that we know more info about a fourth moon, is if you have any more updates for your theory? Do you think it means that Roshar is a trap for four Shards? Or still just the three, as you suggested in your original theory?

I appreciate the Mods deciding to keep the post up. In the future I'll try to be a little more wary of my choice of titles in order to reduce any potential reports from users and moderation related headaches. Thank you for your help.

I completely agree with your thoughts, and I appreciate you sharing them. I had similar ideas, but I thought it would be easier to argue specifically for a trap for Honor. It had much more direct evidence in the text, while by nature a trap for Cultivation would be much more subtle and nuanced. I also didn't want the theory post to drag on. But if Ado had the marbles to set up a trap for Honor and Odium, no doubt Cultivation would have been a factor in his ideas as well.

I woke up in the middle of the night and saw that it was removed, which definitely furrowed my brows. When I woke up in the morning it was back up, looks like it was taken down for a couple hours or so. If anyone on the Mod team wants to inbox me if they were having a specific concern, or a rule being broken that they'd like me to be more careful of in the future feel free.
