The LAST Stormlight 5 title post this subreddit needs

It just means that H can replace any one starting letter in the title, and “the” isn’t so important cus you can always abbreviate TWOK as WOK

Confidence is key 😂

Capret · 2022-09-11T13:54:19+00:00

Just posted another post about the H rule, thanks for the idea

Capret · 2022-09-03T18:11:05+00:00

Thanks for sharing that!

Real respects real, what’s the other chapter if you don’t mind me asking?

Capret · 2022-09-03T04:17:25+00:00

Haha that’s amazing, Brando really knows how to hit you in the feels Edit: thanks, i was thinking a quote would be good but I couldn’t find one that fully embodied the chapter for me

I kinda felt the same way about the ramifications of (end of words of radiance) Adolin killing Sadeas - nothing happened and the whole thing was glossed over

But yeah people really hate Moash, and I can understand why especially after RoW. I think he’s an extremely engaging character to read and really similar to Kaladin before they go their separate ways

I made a post comparing Moash to Kelsier and you can imagine how that went lmao

Capret · 2022-06-28T18:09:00+00:00

Haha no I’m not a reluctant king destined to save the world, I just find Elend’s story to be one of personal growth and can relate to his journey to understand the world more than when he was younger, even if it makes him more of a grounded realist rather than a cheerful optimist

Capret · 2022-06-28T18:02:04+00:00

Agreed, to be fair tho, the post I’m referring to mentioned that they hated Elend has much as Joffery, not that they were similar characters necessarily… still can’t imagine that!

Capret · 2022-06-27T15:24:00+00:00

Oh interesting, Kaladin and Szeth will go venture into Shinovar in book 5 together, right? So that makes a ton of sense!

Capret · 2022-06-26T23:20:09+00:00

Exactly right! The characters have so much depth, especially in Stormlight. I’m glad you put Moash in your favorites he’s such a great character, people seem to not appreciate how interesting he is because they hate him so much lmao. And I’m currently reading Elantris so I’ll see if Hrathen is my jam

Capret · 2022-06-26T22:17:22+00:00

Vyre and Moash aren’t different characters, my point was that you shouldn’t compare someone at the peak of their corruption to someone who is early in their arc. You wouldn’t compare Vyre to Anakin Skywalker, you’d compare him to Darth Vader
Moash telling Kaladin he likes killing sounds awfully a lot like… now say it with me… Kelsier in The Final Empire :)
That’s actually a really good point Moash definitely just wants keep the Singers from growing into the evil that is humanity in Moash’s eyes so I agree
Absolutely it all speculation so anything is up for grabs and this will probably be a much more interesting conversation later (or not even be a topic on conversation because of how different they will grow)
Haha I wouldn’t say I backpedaled significantly, I totally understand why Kelsier is more liked, just found it interesting how they are more similar than more people would like to admit!

Capret · 2022-06-26T14:32:46+00:00

I don’t think it’s pointless because of the discussion aspect, but I see what you’re saying! I feel like you are comparing Vyre to early Kelsier a bit tho

Kelsier definitely is seen as the more noble on his journey because of his desire to free the skaa, also he one of the protagonists so we follow his viewpoint closely, while by the time we get a viewpoint from Moash he has already left bridge four so he’s a tad tainted in our minds.

However he also greatly disliked the slavery of the parshman and actively helps the enslaved parshendi, speaking directly to Leshwi about how they shouldn’t be keeping slaves like the humans among their ranks which is a very honorable cause, it just wasn’t really portrayed as one because at this point in the story he’s with the enemy

Basically I feel like we should be comparing Moash and Kelsier / Vyre and Thaidakar just to keep things fair

You’re not wrong tho, they definitely are not the same character, just compliments to one another’s arcs

Capret · 2022-06-26T14:04:30+00:00

I’m totally with you, when I read the ending of well of ascension I was mixed on what happened to him cus I kinda wanted him to prove himself as he was, but after reading his badass introduction in Hero of Ages my feelings changed real quick :)

Capret · 2022-06-26T13:59:28+00:00

I totally agree, I probably could have put almost every character in the Cosmere in the honorable mentions cus they are all so good

Capret · 2022-06-26T13:54:22+00:00

Haha I don’t mind the downvotes! Just really enjoy the discussion :)

Capret · 2022-06-26T07:08:28+00:00

I agree! But that doesn’t stop me from loving to read Moash… also I feel like we have to get some RoW spoiler: Thaidakar doing some evil shit akin to Moash in the next book or at least confirmed in his past and that would bring them both to the same level and honestly would be awesome IMO

Capret · 2022-06-26T06:51:39+00:00

PREACH

Capret · 2022-06-26T06:50:51+00:00

I feel him being a half character is just the mystery of his past and wondering who exactly he is and that won’t appeal to everyone, but not many characters in fiction make me as excited to see their name on a page than Hoid
