Given the Sibling, and the Death Rattle about how "Three of sixteen ruled, but now the Broken One reigns", was there a third Shard on Roshar with Honor and Cultivation prior to Odium's arrival?
Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased)
RAFO.
Good question.

Would you be willing to confirm that the use of 'they' pronouns for the Sibling is because the Sibling is non-binary? Since apparently some people are confused on this point.
Brandon Sanderson
The sibling did not view themselves as male or female. (And considered it odd that so many spren would adopt human genders.)

At the time of the Recreance, were there any Bondsmiths?
Brandon Sanderson
This is a plot point. You are supposed to be asking that question.
Jozomby
I was mostly trying to find out if the Sibling was bonded, and if the break in the bond is what caused the Sibling to go into slumber
Brandon Sanderson
Let's just say this is a RAFO with the promise that I intend to answer the question relatively quickly.

I have a question about the Sibling, actually. So, do you-- Can you say something about who or what the Sibling is?
Brandon Sanderson
Who or what the Sibling is? I can tell you, the Sibling will be a matter of discussion in a future novel of The Stormlight Archive. That's a RAFO. You will find out a lot more as the narrative progresses. The Sibling is very relevant, but I don't want to say too much right now.
Questioner
There is a lot of rumors that there's something going on...
Brandon Sanderson
..Saying too much about the Sibling is gonna give big spoilers, so I'm just gonna stay quiet on it, alright?

Is the Sibling a Singer?
Brandon Sanderson
The Sibling is not, good question.

The pocket companion states that there are three spren that can bond a person to make them into a bondsmith, the Stormfather being one of them. As far as I recall the books implied that the number was low, and implied heavily that it was around that number in an epigraph, but didn't actually have a straight confirmation. So, should I take that as canon?
Brandon Sanderson
Yes, you can take that as canon. They came to me for that information.

Sweet. I guess it hasn't been canonized which three spren these are? I seem to recall that the prevailing theory on 17th Shard was that Nightwatcher was one of them, and the third was that weird spren with too many faces that Axies the Collector looked at in the tWoK interlude.
Brandon Sanderson
RAFO. :)
