You have a tendency to write books with theocracies that are legitimately ruled by the gods, and this seems to be missing. Is that a direction that the Knights Radiant might be heading, or is something else going to happen?
Brandon Sanderson
I'm gonna RAFO that one. There was a theocracy on Roshar at one point. There was also a mage-ocracy, whatever you want to call it.
Questioner 2
Priestocracy?
Brandon Sanderson
No, mage, magic-user...A lot of things have existed on Roshar.

How long either before modern day or before the Hierocracy was the Recreance?
Brandon Sanderson
Um...
Zas678
Like 200 years-ish? 100 years-ish?
Brandon Sanderson
Okay, Recreance to Hierocracy is what you're asking?
Zas678
Yes. Or to modern day, I don't care.
Brandon Sanderson
Uh, so Recreance to Hierocracy... Hierocracy is in recent memory. Recreance is not.
Zas678
Okay. So that's probably like a 500-year difference. Something like that.
Brandon Sanderson
Uh, yeah, or more. Hierocracy, though, is recent-ish memory.
