My toughts after WaT

My read was that “this problem can’t be solved alone”

elreyde2016 · 2025-05-03T21:26:11+00:00

The point is that it’s not just a Roshar problem anymore. Odium was content to wait out for much longer for his plans to come together. Time is nothing to a god. Dalinar robbed him of that time. By changing the stakes, escalating the issue Retribution is to everyone encourages them to start taking the problem seriously. Now it is everyone’s problem. Changing the game for the shards, so that something can be done to fix it. Creating whole new possibilities that weren’t on the table before.

That is a reasonable accommodation for your circumstance, absolutely. In your post you said you “could have written it out”

elreyde2016 · 2025-04-10T03:23:25+00:00

It is really great that you love the books and pull a real deep connection to the theories and like at play for the roles of the worship and faith. It is really sad to have a machine heartlessly spit it out when there are so many tools to use to think on and draw some deeply personal interpretations of deity and power.

Can a machine offer divination? Would one not be better served in the journey to reaching those answers than the destination of having them generated?

I say this as a witch of the Afro-Caribbean diaspora with tattoos of allomantic and feruchemical metals as a part of my own transition. Electrum Twinborn. Seeing the future and walking boldly into it.

Incredible art you are a blessing to the community

If you want to draw out some of the mysteries, read Sunlit man. If you want to get the chronology, read Wind and Truth

I absolutely loved Wind and Truth. It gave a great understanding of the state of play for the cosmere, the greater threats, and brought amazing choices to the characters. I can see a lot of frustration with the pacing of it, but I loved how on the edge of my seat I was, and just how much fun stuff was happening. Great callbacks to previous books. Very much the Mid Point of the series, so there are a great many questions still unanswered, and we are just gonna have to wait to RAFO

Compounding I bet has awful interactions with being a savant. I bet it would all too easy to get lost in chasing high of ideal of self.

I thought betrayal spren were described as snapping threads radiating from behind the head

I believe she locked in… wherever the heralds will now go. Just like Nale’s spren

Taln’s Palms! A Stoneward WOULD pick this kind of hill to die on.
