Merlin

Hey all! I'm a Lightweaver of the who's only spoken the first Ideal, my name's Sahar, and my spren's is Spool.

"Spool, why are we doing this?" Sahar asked. "Because... I feeeell..." Spool buzzed. Sahar huffed a little. From what she'd seen of the other's spren, they were supposed to actually get more intelligent, though perhaps she'd misjudged. It wasn't like she was going to intentionally talk to those goody-two-shoes fools. Sahar rounded a corner and stared.

She saw several bleeding people, as well as ones bleeding... stormlight. They were all hiding from some huge dust clouds, from which screams were coming out of. "Spool..." She warned, "I'm going to turn around and walk away. Right now.". 

"Noo..." Spool made a groaning sound. "At least... you can... help. Yes, help. That's the word!" She sounded satisfied. Sahar huffed again, marched across the wounded, and into the dust cloud. Immediately, a girl Sahar's age stumbled up to her with both a gut wound, and a gash down one leg. She fell unconscious  onto Sahar's feet.

"Delightful." Sahar groaned, and pulled the girl back through the dust.

For Syl, I'd do Evanna Lynch (Purely because of looks), for Odium, Donald Sutherland might be good, mostly because he played a somewhat similar character in Hunger Games, and, come to think of it, Zac Efron could be a pretty good Moash.

I'm a little confused, though. Teft swore the Third Ideal, right? So does that make him on the same level as Kaladin?

I mean, I like Lynn and I like Kaladin, but I think her and Zigsal (sorry about spelling, I'm an audible guy) are better. They have a little more in common as both literate and outsiders.

Also they are both closer in degree of focus in the books. Maybe if she got more screen time I'd be more natural.

I think Lynn will definitely end up with a member of Bridge Four, most likely Sigzil. That would be an interesting addition to the whole "Where the heck are we gonna put everyone's families?" question that Sigzil brought up, though I think it would be a minor plotline. 

I agree. Kaladin admits to Syl that he didn't feel affection for Shallan, just that she reminded him of Tien. Kaladin latches on to anyone who has a happy aura like Tien did, since Kaldin can't really produce that himself

I don't think Tarah's going to come back. It's way too improbable. I still think he'll remain single, since it seems too late in the series to introduce a new character, especially one as important as I'm sure Kaladin's girlfriend would be.

Me and my friend have been debating profusely about whether or not Kaladin is gonna get a girlfriend. She desperately wants him to find "that special one" but I personally think he's gonna be alone except for Syl. I mean, what available women are there in Stormlight? Jasnah, Rysn, Venli, and Lynn? Jasnah... ha ha. I think Rysn died, and Lynn is going to end up with Lopen or something. (Actually, that would be extremely entertaining.) Kaladin's gonna hate Venli, and Lift...? Yeesh.

Frodo did.

Welcome!  I completely agree, but in my opinion Aragorn is better.

Technically, the orcs carried Frodo half-dead into Mordor.:)

Has anyone else wondered how the heck Lopen lost his arm? My theory is that he fought the "pig" in Herdaz that appears in one of the interludes of... Oathbringer? I think? Anyway, that was the most reasonable theory me and my friend came up with, most of which had to do with him secretly being the king of Herdaz. Oh yeah, and how did he get into the bridge crews in the first place? 

I know everyone's gone over this several billion times by now, (In fact, I think I myself have already posted this.) but are the Shin people's eyes Caucasian-sized,or more with the epicanthal fold of Asians?

I can't wait for EVERYONE in Bridge Four to speak the ideals! Wait, has anyone wondered what happened to Dabbid? That mute guy Kaladin first saved?

I just finished Oathbringer again, and after reading the part where Teft swears the Second Ideal, I'm a little confused. He says "I will protect those I hate, even if the one I hate most is myself." That's obviously different from Kaladin's Second Ideal, so I was wondering if the Ideals change person by person, not just in the Lightweavers. (sorry if that was unclear.)

It's no that she doesn't like sweets, it just says a few times that Jasnah hates jam, which I take as her already being suspicious of food given to her by rivals, since it seems she's had experience with assassins.

Welcome! 

DON"T ACCEPT ANY COOKIES!!

There. I said it. Someone had to.

Granted, but then you have as many horrible days as it'll take Branderson to finish all the Stormlight books.

I wish for school to end a week after it starts.

Sa-dAYas! I'm tellin' ya'll, it's right! 

(But I guess I'm in the minority:)

Don't listen to them, want a cookie?

Ack! BURN THE INQUISITOR, BURN THE INQUISITOR!

So, my friend recently finished Stormlight for the 1st time, and she's moving to Mistborn. I need a coherent way to explain the whole cosmere-multiverse-worldhopper-Splinters-Adonalsium thing without sounding like:

"So, uh, there was this guy or force or something living on a planet called, uh... idk. Um... and he was destroyed? I think? Or, like, it's called Splintering, so he splintered into all these parts, or, like, um... emotions? I guess? And they all went to the different planets in the cosmere, which is like another universe, sort've. And one was Odium, and like, Cultivation. And Ruin and stuff. and Odium, like killed other emotion-splinter-things. And on Roshar there's, like Honor, who...

Ok. I'll stop. 

Anyway, I would appreciate it if you guys could help try to come up with a little speech that's makes enough sense that I don't sound like a TOTAL madman. (I'm perfectly sane, it's my hallucinations who aren't.)

 Granted, but "good" is a subjective term... and it just so happens that everyone's idea of good is Twilight, Grapes of Wrath, and Animal Farm.

I wish to stop sounding like a dying cat whenever I cough up mucus. (And I wish to stop coughing up mucus.)

Granted. But you never get to actually watch it, you just have all spoiled on a wikipedia page.

I wish for tom kha gai soup.

It would also be really hard to do the interludes. They would take up time and people would be confused why we have this random scene with a Purelaker guy all of a sudden, and I, for one, wouldn't remember enough about their stories to feel the significance later on.  (Like with Rysn, who appears throughout and only becomes prominent near the end of Oathbringer.)

Thank you, Lucas.
