Questioner
I wanted to ask about the Returned and the Fused. I haven't gotten all the way through [Oathbringer]... With the Spiritual Realm, is it very similar for how they don't return, versus the Returned coming back and the Fused staying?
Brandon Sanderson
Yeah, there is a similarity there, for sure.
Questioner
Is it related at all... So, a thunderclast. Is it similar to Awakening?
Brandon Sanderson
Kinda, but a little further out. You'll figure out-- that one's explained pretty well in [Oathrbinger].

When the Fused die, do they return directly to the Everstorm, or back to Braize, and then they need to make their way back?
Brandon Sanderson
RAFO.

Do the Fused still require a bond with a spren for maintaining a form/full sapience, or does the Investiture that makes them Cognitive Shadows fulfill that requirement?
Brandon Sanderson
They do not require a bond with a spren, so yes, the Investiture handles all of that.

Questioner
What would happen to the listeners if Odium were to be Splintered?
Brandon Sanderson
Odium being Splintered would not terribly affect the listeners. Now, various other members of that faction like the singers and the Fused might see effects. The listeners could deal with that very easily. Wouldn't even affect them.

The similarity between the shades and the Fused can be due to the Investiture of Odium instead of that of Ambition?
Brandon Sanderson
RAFO.

Questioner
Is the reason that the Fused have access to unlimited voidlight is because Odium's alive, and the Radiants have that access that limited access to Stormlight because Honor is dead?
Brandon Sanderson
Not exactly... They do not have access to unlimited voidlight, how about that.

When Nightblood killed the Fused, are those Fused souls retrievable?
Brandon Sanderson
RAFO.

Questioner
The Fused that wield, like--their Lashings can be a lot faster than Kaladin's are. Is it because it's based on a different planet than the Radiants?
Brandon Sanderson
Kaladin can go faster, but they are more-- they are faster over a large span. What's going on with the Fused is they have-- The way their Investiture works, it doesn't leak and they are able to use it for much longer periods of time. But they don't have access to the number of times that Kaladin can Lash himself directions and things like this, and the speed with which he can pick up speed. So in the short Kaladin is favored, in the long they're favored.

Oversleep
Why do Fused accelerate slower than the Surgebinders?
Brandon Sanderson
Fused accelerate [slower than] Surgebinder's because they're expending less energy.
Oversleep
It doesn't have to do with the Braize gravity?
Brandon Sanderson
No, it does not have to do with Braize's gravity, that's a good question. That's actually a really clever way to ask.
Oversleep
Yeah, cause I thought the planet was smaller so.
Brandon Sanderson
Clever, very clever but no, it is not to do with that. You'll find other explanations but they can expend less energy, they can afford to spend less energy. They can only afford to expend a little bit of energy so that's the way to say it.
