Notable Exception To This Pattern - Gavilar Kholin.

Do you think stew has the same connotations on Roshar as tea has on earth?

Like do people ask for 'the stew' and get gossip? Do you think this is Bridge 4's fault? Do you think that Rosharans see the stew circle as gossip?

I do

Doing a tma relisten, “There has never been a door there archivist” MY BOY. DISTORTION FAN #1 RIGHT HERE! MY SILLY LITTLE REALITY BENDING CREATURE

I never noticed in Shallan’s original drawing of Taravangian (in WoK) there were TWO cryptics!

Sanderson’s foreshadows stretch so far back it’s ridiculous sometimes.

You’re in her dms, I’m in those cryptic, prophetic dreams she keeps having. We’re not the same

Kaladin, to Lirin: so I asked about the - yes, I'm alive, stop screaming - so I asked about the whole wisdom of the heralds thing and get this, Palah says there are these tiny invisible creatures - no they're not rotspren, they're way smaller than rotspren, but they are what attracts rotspren. I know right? Mindblowing

every autistic person watching this episode of dungeon meshi:

Something I’ve found to appreciate about Ruin’s writing, despite my many issues, is that Ruin is change. However, Ruin doesn’t represent the typical definition of change. If Ruin wasn’t around Preservation, if not the Lord Ruler, would forever keep the world stagnant. Ruin transforms things, this is seen through Hemalurgic constructs. But Ruin doesn’t create, invent, or make things grow for the sole sake of those purposes. He does those things with the ultimate goal of decaying or breaking things down. Ruin is decay and entropy.

Ruin creates/invents a web of information which guides people towards a situation where a useless metal kills an immortal ruler. He helps Spook grow into a competent revolutionary, with the goal of having him cause the destruction of Urteau.

But if Preservation and Ruin are together in one Shard, it becomes a force that understands the necessities of BOTH stagnation/stability AND decay. A force that understands why both are necessary in the cosmere and society. And understands how to implement them. Harmony/Discord cares for the Elendel Basin, but knows its stagnation and coddling must eventually be removed for its society to grow.

I never shared my Mistborn animatic here so I may as well post it now👍
