Wind and Truth Chapters 21&22 Reaction

[technicallythecenteroftheu]

6:44 I maintain that Dai Gonarthis is with Moash. WoK epigraph 67: "Let me no longer hurt! Let me no longer weep! Dai-gonarthis! The Black Fisher holds my sorrow and consumes it!" Sounds a lot like what's happening in Moash's internal monologue: his emotions being kept utterly suppressed.

When Odium wins the contest and claims Dalinars soul AFTER dalinar takes up the Shard of Honor, I'll be over here in the corner crying

“The power cannot go to one who wants it, Dalinar.” 🌬️💨

Kaladin doesn’t want it, afaik.

It’s beginning to seem likely that the apotheosis will be Kaladin’s instead of Dalinar’s.

[Mightyjordy]

OK, I’m calling it right now. Szeth does not have a spren. The reason he can’t use division is because he’s not bonded to the sky breakers spren, it’s because he’s bonding the ancient power of wind.

[davidsonderby]

So the night left. I wonder if there's some sort of Brigade that perhaps owes allegiance to this ancient power

[levimusgrave]

Wit says Roshar doesnt have the common cold, but that changed during a purelake interlude a while back when Baon, Gallodon, and Demoux visited

[GBCxPrime]

While it could be about Scadrial, I honestly think the political fundraisers joke is meta commentary on the current US presidential election

[javier]

i don't know why, but having Dalinar saying that he will get Honor Shard makes me believe that Kaladin will get it more than ever, maybe it's just me tbh

[paquadjo]

Could Lift follow and aid Dalinar in the Spiritual Realm? If Dalinar needs a thief to steal a gem containing an Unmade, it's her. Plus, she did something similar in Oathbringer.

Next chapter’s gonna be a Szeth flashback I’m sure

It occured to me while reading the chapters - we've got three ancient spren mentioned (Wind, Stone, and Night?) and 3 shards that seem to have...assimilated them (Wind to Honor, Stone to Cultivation and Night to Odium?). Stormlight is blue-white, lifelight is green-white and void-light is purple-white. And Roshar has 3 moons - Nomon which is blue, Mishim which is green and Salas which is purple.

(spoilers for Tress of the Emerald Sea)


based on Tress, we sort of get the impression Luhel bonds require some kind of physical exchange (water, it seems?) for power and is related to moons somehow. Roshar has 3 moons that match closely to the three kinds of light on the planet and the 3 ancient Spren. With how some of those epigraphs are going, maybe stormlight era 2 will switch from nahel to luhel bonds? Especially with Kaladin apparently on a path to becoming a flying musical therapist, maybe the prerequisite of soul-cracking mental harm is just going to be a lot rarer and luhel bonds become more common because of that?

[thomazeblen]

My favorite part is hoid been more open about what he is. is badass this dude

[Girentina]

Not the Stormfather acting sus again 😩

[CHUCKLZLORD]

Moelach was in Kharbranth, but then moved to the Shattered Plains during TWoK and WoR

[trolledchaos]

IMO Chemoarish has gotta be the unmade in Shinovar. Maybe we’ll finally figure out why people mistake her for the nightwatcher.

[tmrogers]

My brother in Christ has a Windrunner as a Patreon patron

[CHUCKLZLORD]

Guess that the Listeners hadn't reclaimed the buildings so they could hide their settlement?

[oba-kenobi]

Kaladin could either end up as the bondsmith to the Wind or Honor but man Kal deserves a break😅

[lordultimus]

More and more I suspect Kaladin will get the Honor Shard because he's Dalinar's heir.

[silverdragon]

What if kaladin and syl become Honor together. Then do a "full" bonding together becoming a new person. I think it could fit both characters and it's not romantic.
