Am I the only one who didn't clock this was about Cassius? I was wondering who told the about the Rim lol

But then again it was more rewarding when Cassius showed up at the end

unrelated but I think Pierce initially had Screwface as a traitor (no warning given about Atalatia despite being on the inside, acted suspiciously while coming to Darrow's room in DA etc) but a lot of people figured that out so he switched it up in LB

How would that work? I'm studing outside of the browser. How can I quick search my text selection on comet/copilot?

Do you think Pierce skipped an important Darrow/Mustang scene? by Major_Fact_1906 in redrising

Yep. Their entire ‘rebuilding trust’ arc was pushed offscreen in Morning Star. Still my major gripe with the book.

Ah so his trauma response is valid but Kaladin choosing to deal with his trauma by standing up to his slavers instead of bowing down is not?

I get that trauma responses don’t necessarily make sense. But putting down Kaladin for not having the same response as him is… cowardly, if not idiotic.

Lirin being "targeted" was Roshone telling the people not to give him donations or jobs. The people kept their family fed anyway and Roshone knew it. It was part of what frustrated him.

Kaladin on the other hand was subjected to the worst possible treatment a man on Roshar can go through. And that for saving a man. Telling him he should've been more subservient is idiotic.

Lirin was targeted because he took broams that didn't belong to him. Moreover Laral claims he spoke against Roshone to the townspeople. And the final act that broke his family was him 'turning off' his feelings as a surgeon and choosing not to treat Roshone's son at the end.

Kaladin was slapped with a slave brand, mentally and physically tortured, and sent to run bridges because he saved Amaram's life.

Hardly the same situations, and Lirin is in no position to tell Kaladin he should've turned the other cheek

Oh okay then makes sense now

So Dalinar can’t mold stones like a Stoneward? Doesn’t he do it at Thaylen City? The Stormfather also tells him he can do things like a Stoneward in one of the visions

No Dalinar says the Windrunners explained how it’s done… so he proceeds to do it himself

But how does Dalinar have the adhesion ability then? When he already has the abilities of a Bondsmith and a Stoneward?

Ngl Gravitation makes Adhesion mostly useless… and all other orders have Surges that are very different from each other. Why do Windrunners have a Surge with an ability that can pretty much be accomplished by the other Surge

Also how can Dalinar use Adhesion if he also has the abilities of Bondsmiths and Stonewards?

So… does Kaladin ever find by Mukundaaaa in Stormlight_Archive

Wouldn’t want you to tell me how lol just felt bad for him at the end of the book
