SymphonianBookworm she/her Posted October 25, 2023 Report Share Posted October 25, 2023 1 minute ago, Kajsa said: "No, it wouldn't be my fault. It's all fate." Assah tries to dodge the rock(? shall we say they're chucking decent-sized rocks at each other?) but it hits her jaw hard enough to leave a nasty bruise. She winces and places a hand over her throbbing face, pausing mid-stride. This isn't interesting enough; it's child's play. The gamemakers don't like when it's all drawn out and anticlimactic like this. I may just have to come back later... Quote Yeah, rocks sound good. Spoiler I'm just imagining a whole conversation that goes like: "I throw a mysterious heavy object at you!" "Aha! But I throw a mysterious heavy object at you." "No, but I catch the mysterious heavy object! The joke's on you!" "But they mysterious heavy object is too heavy! You drop it." "But it's not heavy enough for me to drop it." "No, but it is." "But you said people deserve everything that happens to them. So it would technically be their fault." Lilac shakes her head. "Look, I don't want to kill you. I don't want to kill anyone. Did I kill someone? I..." She trails off before refocusing. "Anyway. We're not gaining anything here. Can you... stop attacking me? Please? Can we just say you won this fight and move on?" Lilac sighs, and suddenly she looks much older than her age. "It has been a very long day, and I think that if I continue being around people, I..." Lilac looks at her quarterstaff. "I might just do something that I'd regret." She hesitates. "I respect your tenacity... and I think the world could use someone like you. So can we not do this? The people watching are probably bored, too." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What should I find at the top of the mountain range? Will the GMHQ be there? He continues climbing. Eventually, he finds the top. Or he can see it. This better have had been worth it. He approached the top of the Mountains rather quickly. The gamemakers must have had not noticed him yet. Maybe they thought that no one would try to climb their "unpassable mountains". Sounds like such a thing they would do. At the very top, it was cold. Very cold. But not too cold for Saffron Iguana. Those Gamemakers would pay for their actions. Saffron's hands started to numb, but they wouldn't give up. Not after coming so far. Not after being tormented by the Gamemakers. Not after getting hit on the head by a water bottle, and not after sleeping instead of killing Levi. Saffron's resolve was overpowering the will of the mountain. What will I find? For a second, Saffron thought it was going to be a disappointment. A big disappointment. There was going to be a monster, or shades, or an army. Or a magical barrier. Or the evil. These thoughts and doubts flooded his mind when he took the last few steps. "I will beat the gamemakers. I will not lose." Saffron didn't care about the hunger games. Escaping was all that mattered. Maybe he would take more actions after. He peered over the top of the mountain and saw something abominable. So stupid. So stupid was saffron to think that they didn't consider the possibility of a Tribute escaping. A magical barrier. By the god beyond Saffron was stupid. What was he supposed to do? I swear. These Gamemakers. I will kill you. ... If he could. But he couldn't. And saffron hated the world for this. He was so foolish to assume the gamemakers who made the games would forget to keep those out. He hated them, but couldn't do anything.

We've seen how silver interacts with aethers, and we've seen over on Threnody. So that makes silver the second really really special metal to interact with investiture. Is the plan now to have aluminum block investiture, and silver destroy investiture? Brandon Sanderson Yeah, that's the way I'm going with it. To make a distinction between them, that's where we're going. Argent But silver is still non-allomantic. No silvereyes. Brandon Sanderson No, non-allomantic, yup. No silvereyes. This is my nod towards silvereye-ness, and yeah, there we go. Argent So would [silver] be effective against spren, just like [anti-Investiture]? Brandon Sanderson Well, you'll have to find out. RAFO! Footnote: Argent tried. He also horribly mangled his last question, but it got RAFO'd, so that doesn't matter... https://wob.coppermind.net/events/518/#e16183 Good night!
