Questioner
The Division Surge: does it actually split atoms or does it split the bonds of molecules?
Brandon Sanderson
It splits the bonds of molecules, it does not split atoms.
Questioner
That would be completely overpowered.
Brandon Sanderson
I have done an atom splitting magic originally in Dragonsteel. And wooow it was overpowered. So really, this is fiddling... You'll see what it does when I use it, but we'll not be splitting atoms. We're not creating nuclear reactio... or fission, so.
