I’m about halfway through book two and loving it so far. I love to 3D print cool light boxes and stuff for my bookshelf and came up with this, hoping it’s still relevant as the series goes on (no spoilers though lol)

Designed it myself. Glyph of death split by glyph of stormlight with the sash as the cross guard. And Of course my favourite assassin :3

Honorspear.

He has Syl, but he has the honorspear now too? What good is two spears? Is he going to go spear and shield, or dual wield?

Which is stronger?

What’s sandersons plan, giving Kaladin two weapons?

Im on a 3rd read and to this day I cannot understand why dalinar chose to name amaram as a knight radiant. I do understand that dalinar conducted a thorough investigation, interviewed witnesses, whole 9 yards to attest that amaram won his shards honorably. But, maybe im missing something here, by this point dalinar has collected taln and was using his shardblade to bait amaram into lying to him. I remember distinctly in talns interlude, dalinar said he already knew how he would use talns shard blade in this way, which was before the menagerie and after kaladin told dalinat about amarams crimes. It feels like a wild step to make a huge public statement about him trusting amaram with such a title earn he clearly still had suspicions of him, enough to create a trap, even if he believed the suspicions to be incorrect.

I posted an earlier version of this piece but I made some improvements and wanted to share its final form. Digital, made on Procreate.

This is the scene from Oathbringer when Dalinar first opens Honor's perpendicularity (Chapter 119: Unity) It's such an epic moment that I had to draw it.

"YOU CANNOT HAVE MY PAIN!"

So I'm about 30% into WaT at the moment and a few things have struck me that hark all the way back to WoK.

1) who created the cities of roshar using Cymatics? I am assuming it was the singers or some predecessor that could stone shape with song like the cavern fiends?

2) why did honor destroy the land where narak was? And why do the chasm fiends hum around the plains? Is it something to do with that shrine that is mentioned on the east side of the planes (I think "the tower" actually is the shrine but it's covered in crem?)

3) was it honor that crashed the moon into roshar?

Gotta say I'm hyped for the story to continue, it's made my long work commutes much more bearable, but I'm becoming addicted to the mystery and linking of the cosmere magic system.

Do we know who Cultivation's minions were when she took over Kharbranth? Does she have a secret order of fighters that answer to her and are maybe invested by her?

Here’s my 3d model of an Ink Spren

Marked WaT spoilers just in case but hearing Wyndle talk about the “nice cobbler” he was looking at bonding every now and then broke my heart. I remember listening to WoK first and being overwhelmed with so many things but feeling so bad for him being killed. Then relistening again, understanding more, and feeling even worse for him.

Then I listened to Edge Dancer and hearing how much Wyndle looked forward to bonding Ym. I love this universe so much.

I've just picked up the series and I am really ejoying the book, but I was curious, can anyone recall what it was like when the first book came out? Got any interesting stories to tell?

So I wanted to know what people think about this idea. Ba Ado Mishram as a new Bonds mithelfen spren? She would provide voidlight or warlight but she kinda feels like more of a storm father figure to me. Just for the singers.

As such my idea was that because of that it might make sense that during the timeskip or afterwards more likely, Ba Ado Mishram might bond a singer to create a bondsmith for the singers. As some radiant spren bond singers and with corrupted spren also existing, it would further remove the human vs singer devide between radiants.

Not to mention I think Mishram and the sibling or at least sajanat have similar opinions on spren and freedom so an alliance seems more likely. Though the issue is of course she would be completely under retribution possible control (or maybe honor would hold back retribution who knows honestly), so maybe its not a bad theory from that angle but what does the rets of you think?

I'm a bit confused by what Szeth means here. I know he understands lightweaving to an extent. So what does he mean by "how she brought them to life, he did not know." Is he specifically asking how the illusions remind him of the voices of guilt in his mind? Or is Shallan doing something even in this moment that she is only able to do as a double bonded Radiant?

Kaladin and Chana.

Now that Kaladin is going to be spending the next 10+ years being a therapist for the heralds, there’s a possibility he could end up in a relationship with one of them. Chana was a soldier type, which could synergize with Kaladin.

How would Shallan react?

Is it a cursed combo?

Title

So I was talking to a jeweler friend of mine after replacing a watch battery, and he mentioned doing a custom engraving of the one ring from LOTR. We started talking about fantasy books, and Stormlight came up, and I had the idea of getting the First Ideal on the watch back. We discussed price but I let him have artistic license as an artist and a nerd to really make it shine. This is what I got back. I absolutely love it.

I first read Way of Kings then Words of Radiance. I was then introduced into the cosmere and have read mistborn era 1 & 2 elantris, Warbreaker and Yumi &the nightmare painter plus some short stories. Should I re read Words of Radiance before reading edge dancer then Oathbringer?

Should I add color?

Based on the excerpts of the Way of Kings, and the descriptions/recollections of experiences Nohadon had and based on the vision with Nohadon himself, I’d think Nohadon’s way of kings could make for an amazing book.

Deeply contemplative character and a strong evolution of his self, journeys through beautifully built worlds and through messages and lessons and a great plot too of the Heraldic Epochs. Might serve as a prequel of sorts to stormlight even.

I know it’ll never happen, but everytime Dalinar mentiones TwoK, I really want to read Nohadon’s book. Then again I do have some glimmer of (albeit naïve) hope that it’ll happen. If way of kings prime exists purely for fans’ amusement, why not this haha.

why didn’t the singers just transport the azimir defenders into kholinar or the other oathgates they had there? am I missing somethin? could they not do that? also im on page 500 of the book so please dont spoil me!

my sister's reading the stormglith archive series, which i've already finished for a bit. she's on rhythm of war, in which kaladin goes through some ummMMmmm mEntAL inStaBilitY (well more than the usual😊) and the other day she announced to me, "kaladin is definitely going to die. he's too honorable to live. he's going to sacrifice himself for some great noble cause or something." (er. paraphrased.)

and then i was just like-

weLLLLLL i mEANNnnnnNnn you're not toTaLLy wRong abOut thAt-

let me know, do you think kaladin choosing to give up his mortal life and becoming a herald counts as sacrificing his life? cuz uh i'm pretty sure YES-

There's some fun overlap between the themes Stormlight and KPDH. So I figured, hey, why not experiment with them a little bit.

It's short, just 4k words, and follows Zoey the (extremely gay) edgedancer medic who meets and helps a wounded lightweaver—and gets saved by the second coolest fourth-ideal windrunner on the planet—during a fight on the shattered plains.

Figured I'd share here, in case I'm not the only one on this subreddit who loves both fandoms lol. Definitely let me know what you think if you give it a read!

All the dramatized Secret Projects on Audible, but not Stormlight Archive. Why is that the case?
