I have a question about the Everstorm.
It appears the Parshendi kept singing long past the point necessary to summon the storm. It could be they didn't know when to stop, but there are other possibilities. Could the storm have been stopped or weakened if the Alethi armi had hit them earlier? Does the time they were stopped affect the number of Odium-spren in the storm?
RAFO, I'm afraid.
If a non-Windrunner Surgebinder (who had spoken all the Ideals of their Radiant Order) summoned Jezrien's Honorblade, what color eyes would they get? A blend? Different colors for each eye?
:) I'm going to RAFO eye color questions for the moment. We'll actually be dealing with some of these in the books. Maybe not the specific ones you ask, but the concepts in general.
There is an expensive steel chain in the shops in Celebrant. Is there anything significant about that.
*Hands over a RAFO card* That is such a big RAFO. Super-big RAFO.
So, Shardblades, they're dead spren, but Syl came back. Is there any way for Shardblades, the spren who are Shardblades, to come back?
Mmm... You'll have to read and find out.
Why do only the Terris have the sDNA for Feruchemy?
That's a RAFO, too.
Is Wax's sister a duralumin Ferring?
I'm curious what makes you guess that particular power.
Can Breath be taken or withdrawn from a sentient object that's not a person?
I will RAFO that.
What's the "skycolor" about which Khriss said in the White Sand?
What's the what? Skycolor?
It was mentioned in White Sand prose.
What about it?
What it really is? Because she mentioned it and that was only one sentence. Skycolor?
(seems still confused) Skycolor?
Oh. Oh! RAFO.
Dai-Gonarthis is speculated by Mythica's author Hessi to be the cause of Aimia's destruction. Does this have relevance to the Night of Sorrows?
RAFO.
Did Gavilar see the same visions Dalinar did?
RAFO.
Did Nightblood cause the Cognitive Anomaly?
*Hems and haws*
I'll give you a RAFO card.
Is Hoid going to be Jasnah's Wit?
RAFO
And there's one last question if I may: I'm really into swords and such. I couldn't help but notice king Elhokar's Blade. It's just... All the others are ornamented, and they may have some glyphs, but it is the only one where it is explicitly it is told that there are ten fundamental glyphs on it which are the glyphs of the orders. I read some of the chapters from Dalinar from Unfettered II, and I know how he got it for Elhokar. Is there also some more backstory to this Blade?
There's a backstory to every Blade and every one of them is special, that's the problem. But I will be exploring the origins of some of the Blades. Eventually. Not a ton, but a little bit.
As it is ornamented in such a way... Could it be related to a Bondsmith?
Bondsmiths didn't have Blades.
All of them? It's just... Maybe it was just the Stormfather...
No. That's a really good guess. Really good guess. I'm gonna RAFO Bondsmiths because you gonna learn a lot about them in the next book because it's the Bondsmith's book. That's a really good theory, but it's not true.
But maybe there is at least something to it.
But there's a reason to it, why it has all the 10 orders.
Glys, Renarin's Spren, is he a Cultivation Spren?
RAFO.
Could you say that he is equally bonded to a different entitiy/to a different Shard like Sylphrena is bonded to Honor?
You're asking... Is his like the windspren?
I mean allegion to his aspect.
Are you still talking about Glys?
Yes. Sylphrena is like 100% of Honor. Is Glys like 100% anything?
RAFO.
Is Shardplate immune/resistant to regular lighting or just that of stormform?
RAFO.
Theoretically, what would happen if one were to compound chromium?
As expected, this one is a RAFO.
On Threnody is there more than one metal that affects Shades?
Technically a RAFO.
What would a larkin do on Scadrial around a metal?
A larkin on Sca-- It would have to-- *pause* I'm going to RAFO that. I mean I know what it would do, but let's let you see what larkins can do more.
Will we ever see Lift fight with a Shardfork?
RAFO.
Do Ryshadium have gemhearts?
Um... I'll RAFO that for now. I'm just kind of staying really dodgy about Ryshadium, on purpose. I will dig into them later on.
Can an Allomancer burn any god metal? Or is it specifically Preservation and Ruin?
That is actually a RAFO. There's some funkyness going on there.
Are Renarin's visions Surgebinding?
*nervous laughter* RAFO!
What does the Red Rip look like in the Cognitive Realm?
So this is a RAFO, in part because I haven't revealed if there are any planets out there.
I'm going to read you a real quote from Words of Radiance. It's Wit speaking, and he's talking to Kaladin. And he goes, "So you do have some spark of wit in you. It came from Kaladin's mother." So, I think that means that Kaladin is a descendant of Wit.
And I think it means just literally that he has wit.
So, which one do you think is right? Me, or him?
RAFO.
Have we seen the resonances of either Wax or Wayne?
Yes, well, Wax is really good at sculpting bullets and things away from him.
The bubble.
Yeah and things like this. This is playing with the fact that he is-- Let's just say that the abilities make this happen, and I’ll let you theorize on why, but it's just an enhancement to what he can do.
I might be wrong, but I thought you said it was because he was becoming a steel savant.
A savant, yeah, definitely, but this is what this is coming from.
But being a savant has to do with being really good with one power--
Yes.
--and resonances--
Being a savant has to do with using Investiture a lot, and it's starting to permeate your soul. Like we've ta--
So he's more a savant with both of--
He's used them a lot, and they are changing his soul, and so the powers are morphing and changing. Just in slight, little ways. You're not gonna see a whole bunch. But you can imagine these two separate powers are kind of becoming one to him.
Yeah I can see that. And Wayne?
So Wayne's is not as obvious. I'll go ahead and RAFO that right now.
I have a question about the man at the end of Rhythm of War that Kaladin finds, that used to recollect lost objects from the Shattered Plains, such as Rock's razor or even Tien's horse. Will we get to know more about him, or is it just a random man?
So, what is happening there is all RAFO material. I'm not gonna answer any specifics about Tien's horse or even about Tien. There are lots of ways you can theorize that this happened, and I'm not gonna canonize which of them it is. One of those includes Hoid and his shenanigans, that's a possibility. One of which is kind of some Fortune being bent around what's going on. Other possibilities are that there's a divine manifestation. I'm not gonna say which of those it is, but there are lots of plausible answers there.
And... Fortune and Autonomy are Shards? Yes, no?
RAFO.
So in Words of Radiance, when Hoid has-- switches places with the carriage driver, who was mentioned as having a hat and a strange accent - is that carriage driver important?
Hehehehe… That's a-- I'll leave this one to you. It's a RAFO, but it's not a big RAFO.
Alright, was Awakening used on Nalthis before Vo Returned?
Ummmm… RAFO!
Loved Way of Kings; can you say where Shardblades go when not summoned or is it a RAFO?
It is RAFO, but one that will be answered for sure.
Someone else asked if Adonalsium had been self-aware.
Brandon said he couldn't answer that yet.
Favorite thing Hoid's done?
RAFO, sorta. A lot of his fave things have happened off screen that we're not supposed to know about (yet). Wit is his fave role that we've seen!
Are you planning on any of the Stormlight exclusive characters becoming world-hoppers?
RAFO.
Could a Leecher take away stores in a metalmind?
You’ll have to find out. That’s a RAFO.
I saw a quote that said that there were two people who knew how to awaken metal. Is that still true?
Read and find out.
Did Yolen ever have a moon? Is a past version of Hoid in any of Dalinar's visions?
Two questions, I'll RAFO them both.
Does a Shard's power being manifested either physically or not (through metals vs through light) have anything to do with its individual abilities/powers?
RAFO. :)
Is there, or has there ever been, a Dawnshard hidden in a book?
I will RAFO that.
Are all of the Heralds who gave up their Honorblades still alive?
Good question! RAFO.
Would you be willing to admit the name of the Vessel of the Shard on Obrodai.
*gives RAFO card*
Random question! Will we see any cosmere characters crossing over from other series in this book? The 3rd book seems like a good point to start messing with that, since we have settled into the world, IMO.
RAFO.
They say Ati was good, but Ruin turned him evil. Are they any evil people who picked up a Shard that turned them good?
RAFO. Good question!
Are there Dawnshards that aren't swords? The Parshindi person had a unique looking sword, so will we see any that in a spear for Kaladin or any other weapon?
RAFO. :)
Did Vasher or any of the Five Scholars visit the Nightwatcher prior to the Manywar, or have any of them visited since?
RAFO.
1) Is Hoid still holding his Dawnshard?
2) If not, is the Dawnshard currently hold by Rysn the same as Hoid's or a different?
3) Nikli mentions 4 Dawnshards. Are there more than that?
4) Are all the Dawnshards currently (as of SA 4) on Roshar? Or in the Rosharan System?
5) Are there some of them on worlds we have already seen (Scadrial, Sel, Threnody, etc...)?
Hoid Dawnshard is a RAFO.
Same.
There are only four Dawnshards.
RAFO on whether they're on this planet or not.
These are great questions, but Dawnshard info is mostly for the future cosmere books--and so I consider most of it very RAFOy.
"Same," here meant RAFO. I answer these quickly, I'm afraid, particularly when they come in a list like that.
If Dalinar were to deadeye the Stormfather, would highstorms stop or change? Related, were there highstorms on Roshar before the Splintering of Honor?
RAFO, I'll have to think about that.
In Edgedancer, when Wyndle is talking to Lift, and he says the Ring chose him? Is that a council in Shadesmar? Or is that, like, one entity?
*hands over a RAFO card*
In the [Purelake vision that Dalinar had in WoR] there was a pouch that the Shardbearer grabbed when the spren went into the ground. I was wondering what is this pouch? Is it a fabrial? Was it important? It was just sitting there, sitting there!
You need to get at least one RAFO. I'm not saying that's an important thing--
Hey!?
...it might be, but you need to get at least one RAFO from me, so that's the one I'm gonna RAFO.
In Secret History, Hoid says something to Kelsier about him destroying the Pits and destroying an entire mercantile system. Is he talking about literal inter-Realmic trade?
Yes. Interplanetary trade, yes.
Follow-up: Is House Venture involved?
House Venture is not involved. People in House Venture might be.
The guy who--
Here is a RAFO card for your follow-up. House Venture is-- Yes.
I can't take credit for this, because it is a friend's question, but he has this little theory that your more quiet and reserved characters end up being super important or just interesting characters somehow and he has this theory that Dabbid from Kings is like a worldhopper that just went there and like "I'm just going to stay quiet and watch what's going on."
The question is: Is Dabbid from The Way of Kings, who you may not quite remember, he is the bridgeman who is very quiet and displays some very strong signs of PTSD, and things like this, even though he was healed. Is it-- Yeah, what's going on with him. And that is definitely a RAFO. But it's not a RAFO-- Like sometimes Read And Find Out means "I'm going to reveal it eventually", sometimes it means "I don't want to crush any fans' theories" and I won't tell you which one it is until the end of the series...
