The Stormlight Archive	comment	The Stormlight Archive is an Epic Fantasy series of ten planned novels, written by Brandon Sanderson. It is part of The Cosmere, along with Mistborn, Elantris, and Warbreaker. The series is set on the world of Roshar, which experiences Bizarre Seasons and Hostile Weather — the seasons change every few weeks, and appear in random order, while the hurricane-like "highstorms" hit every few days. The only exception to this is the annual "Weeping"; four weeks of constant, dreary rain (sometimes with a highstorm in the middle, sometimes without) that marks the beginning of a new year. These odd pressures have shaped Roshar's indigenous wildlife and human civilizations both.In the distant past, mankind repeatedly warred with the demonic Voidbringers. Championed by the mighty Knights Radiant, armed and armoured with Shardblades and Shardplate, humanity managed to hold their own and prevail against all odds... only to be apparently betrayed by the Knights Radiant, who cast aside their armaments and vanished. The amazing weapons and armor remained behind, to be claimed by whoever can manage to acquire them.Two millennia later, the nation of Alethkar, having just signed a peace treaty with the Parshendi people, are abruptly betrayed when the Parshendi send an assassin wearing white to kill their king. In retaliation, the Alethi declare war and invade the Shattered Plains to begin a long and arduous military campaign.The story follows several viewpoint characters, including Kaladin, a Broken Ace with Chronic Hero Syndrome who trained as a surgeon but joined the army instead; Dalinar Kholin, a Highprince and war general trying to follow the old codes of chivalry; Shallan Davar, a Broken Bird noblewoman who is trying to save her destitute house; and Szeth, a man whose honor requires him to be an Extreme Doormat for others, who we first meet as he is sent to murder the Alethi king.Novels in the series: The Way of Kings (released August 2010) Words of Radiance (released March 2014) Edgedancer (novella, released November 2016) Oathbringer (released November 2017) Dawnshard (novella, released November 2020) Rhythm of War (released November 2020) Wind and Truth (November 2024) Books 6 through 10 (TBA)

The Stormlight Archive / int_109b036e	type	Abusive Precursors
The Stormlight Archive / int_109b036e	comment	Abusive Precursors: The Knights Radiant, or at least everybody thinks so. Turns out this also applied to their Precursors, who were so bad they accidentally destroyed their home world. The Knights Radiant's apparent betrayal was an attempt to avert a second apocalypse, but between the resulting chaos and the machinations of Odium, their reasons for it were lost to history.

The Stormlight Archive / int_11077b27	comment	Eye Color Change: It is believed by many characters that if a person with dark eyes wins a Shardblade their eyes will become light. Szeth's eyes are normally dark green but become pale blue when he is actively using his Blade; he notes this is unique to his particular blade, so it's not entirely clear what the actual situation is. Some more details come up in Words Of Radiance, as we see Kaladin's eyes turn sky-blue when he uses his Blade, although they fade back to his normal color a few hours after he dismisses it. Moash's eyes turn light tan when he bonds a regular Shardblade. Also, we discover that Parshendi eyes turn glowing red when they become Voidbringers.

The Stormlight Archive / int_1161fb48	type	Bizarre Alien Biology
The Stormlight Archive / int_1161fb48	comment	Bizarre Alien Biology: Roshar is apparently a land without soil (the constant highstorms blow away any earth; the exception is Shinovar, on the far west of the continent, where high mountains to the east protect them from the force of highstorms already weakened by the time they arrive), has random seasonal changes every few weeks, has a gravity level of 0.7, and is scoured by hurricane-force storms on a near-weekly basis. Adaptations include grass that retreats into holes in the rock when threatened. Very few animals other than the humanoid races seem to even be mammals (there are minks and horses), with beasts of burden and domesticated pets being mostly crustacean, reptilian or insectile. The low gravity also allows for the massive crustacean greatshells to exist without being crushed under their own weight. Additionally, Greatshells are implied to gain sustenance from the stormlight that comes in on the Highstorms, using their massive internal gemstones to store it. Plants are very tough and tend to grow in clefts of rock or behind ridges, or have some form of sensory apparatus that let them detect water and sense movement nearby so they can extend or retract parts of their bodies. Early on, Kaladin notes that farming is very different, as instead of plowing fields a farmer instead spreads a sap mixed with seeds across rocky hillsides, and then waits for polyps to grow that are filled with powdery grain. The only real work needed to maintain the crop is "worming," which involves making sure worm-like parasites don't tunnel into the polyp and eat all the grain. The Parshendi race has shades of this. We know their bones are red, their skin is marbled multi-colored, their blood is orange and smells moldy, and they grow their armor as part of their bodies. It turns out that they're actually shapeshifters, and originally were capable of assuming hundreds of different forms, though many of those forms were as Voidbringers. And it's even implied in their legends that they may literally be aliens, though the stories are unclear. They're not. Those stories describe their abandoning Odium and fleeing to Eastern Roshar. The actual aliens are the humans. Most species native to Roshar have gemhearts, natural organs made of precious gemstones. Chasmfiends, chulls, and Parshendi are all confirmed to have them by the end of Oathbringer. Most terrestrial species—we see humans, horses, pigs, and minks—lack a gemheart because they didn't originate on Roshar. Also inverted when it comes to the country of Shinovar. By the time Highstorms reach there they've expended most of their energy, so the ecology of the region is a lot more similar to Earth, even to the point of having strawberries and chickens, and in Edgedancer Lift remarks that the region has something akin to goats living in the mountains. Visitors to this land from the rest of Roshar find it extremely strange. There is a Running Gag where Eastern characters call every bird a chicken. Even humans from Roshar have some odd quirks of their genetics compared to those from Earth. For example, hair and eye color inherit fractionally rather than through dominant/recessive combinations. Brown hair and blonde hair will make a kid with half brown, half blonde hair. The same is true for a darkeyes and lighteyes having children: They can have one light eye and one dark, though they might just be born with either normal light or dark eyes. As it turns out, this trope is inverted for the planet as a whole; humanity is an invasive species on Roshar, fleeing the destruction they inflicted on their original homeworld and settling in Shinovar, hence the Earth-like flora and fauna native to that country. This is lampshaded by the Stormfather, who points out that it should be obvious that humans were never made for a world like Roshar.

The Stormlight Archive / int_16a21271	type	Walking Wasteland
The Stormlight Archive / int_16a21271	comment	The Parshendi can shift between a variety of different forms, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses. Warform is the one we usually see them in, making them big and strong and causing them to grow an armored carapace. Workform is similar to warform, but without the armor and with a mental block against conflict. Mateform is used for reproduction, while nimbleform is generally dexterous and quick, while the lost scholarform is intelligent, artform is creative, and meditationform introspective and good for teaching. Finally, we have dullform, a baseline form with no distinguishing properties, and slaveform, the mindless state that most parshmen exist in. There's also Stormform, one of their Voidbringer forms, which turns them into hate-filled killing machines that can generate lightning and in large groups can summon an Everstorm, Nightform for predicting the future, Smokeform for stealth and more. Including a decayform. Post-Everstorm, the Singers have a fairly concrete hierarchy. Humans are on the bottom, treated as slaves. Then come normal Singers whose forms are created by bonding with a normal spren of Roshar. Above them are Regals, Singers who have bonded a corrupted spren of Odium, granting them low-level supernatural powers. At the top are the Fused, immortal Singers from past Desolations, who answer only to Odium.

The Stormlight Archive / int_17b5862b	comment	Chariot Pulled by Cats: The planet Roshar's unique ecology leans heavily towards crustaceans, so the primary draught animal is a huge, docile, crab-like creature called a chull. They're fairly slow-moving, but actual horses are far too rare and expensive to waste on draught work. The ships that navigate the Spirit World of the Cognitive Realm are pulled by Mandras, Giant Flyer spren that look like a cross between an eel and a sea slug. They don't need to be fed, so they're a very economical means of transport, their habit of occasionally vanishing into the Physical Realm notwithstanding.

It is also implied that Hoid is using Allomancy in several scenes (specifically Soothing and Rioting) and late in Rhythm of War Shallan discovers Mraize was using an imprisoned Seon to remotely communicate.

The Stormlight Archive / int_1c45d4d7	comment	Our Nudity Is Different: The cultures based on the Vorin religion consider a woman with her left hand (the "safehand") bare to be roughly equivalent to being topless. Commoner women wear a glove to cover it, while noblewomen wear dresses with left sleeves that cover the entire arm and hand and button shut. If a woman wants to appear provocative, she might wear a fingerless glove, showing just her fingertips (but only a woman of questionable reputation would do that). At one point we see a prostitute, who wears a short-sleeved dress, and Kaladin cannot take his eyes off her safehand. And Shallan has a huge problem with showing her safehand when impersonating a messenger boy. She solves it by wearing thick worker's gloves on both her hands.

The Stormlight Archive / int_1c4adce1	type	The Siege
The Stormlight Archive / int_1c4adce1	comment	The Siege: The entire Vengeance Pact is one prolonged example. Because the Alethi can't move their entire force out onto the Shattered Plains without getting surrounded by the much more mobile Parshendi, they instead cut off escape to the west and proceeded to engage in a seven-year-long war of attrition to reduce the Parshendi numbers, with much of the fighting occurring over the gemhearts left by slain chasmfiends (used to power Soulcasting). While an effective strategy, the siege causes massive strain on Alethkar itself, costs a tremendous number of lives, and eventually pushes the Parshendi to develop stormform bodies, which triggers their Demonic Possession, starts up a new Everstorm, and begins the next Desolation. Alethi cities are often built to defend first against highstorms and then secondly against sieges, since the highstorms will often blow away any attempt at a prolonged siege. For this reason, the Alethi tend to avoid sieges where they can, instead aggressively assaulting the walls. The city of Kholinar itself takes this a step further; ''everything' within a day's march of the city itself is cleared out, leaving only open fields with no buildings or hills or anything else than can shield an invading army, making it much, much harder to set up an effective siege of the city.

The Stormlight Archive / int_26f924ef	comment	Court Jester: The Alethi king has a position known as "the King's Wit" who insults people in the king's stead so that the king doesn't have to sully himself. His primary role is to humiliate and humble the various "lighteyed" lords and ladies by mocking them, which he does with relish and gusto. The current Wit (Hoid) does hide his genuine criticisms in a lot of straightforward insults, but they are there. It's technically legal for a slighted lord to kill the Wit, if he is willing to revoke all his lands and titles. This fact is exploited by Jasnah in Rhythm of War. She baits Ruthar, who has been completely opposed to her rule, into attacking Wit so he can be neatly removed and replaced with his more cooperative son.

Although never stated outright, one would assume they likewise hold their women in very high esteem.

Physically superior to a human, they are poorly equipped (beyond their built-in carapace armor) and trained, with far less military experience both as warriors and as a nation at war than Alethkar. The Parshendi achieve what would later be called Regal forms at the end of Words of Radiance. These forms of power give them supernatural abilities, such as shooting lightning or understanding any language. The Fused, ancient, immortal Listeners with Surgebinding powers, were awoken at the end of Words of Radiance, but we don't really see what they're capable of until Oathbringer. That said... Rhythm of War shows new varieties of Fused awakening on Roshar, able to teleport or swim through solid rock. Additionally, by this point mainline singer troops have developed appreciable veterancy and the forms of power unleashed in Words of Radiance have become commonplace in fighting units.

Unfortunately, he's not as good as he appears, which Kaladin Stormblessed suffered for. However, his sparkling public image is also lightly lampshaded and played with, as Adolin Kholin is the one person to believe Kaladin that he isn't as much of a paragon as he puts on because anyone who would have such a good reputation free from any blemish must have been putting in the effort to be hiding something. King Gavilar was beloved by all Alethi characters in the books, to the point where his assassination at the hands of Szeth led to the formerly divided Alethi highprinces forming a "Bloodpact" to go to war with the people responsible for Gavilar's death. However, it's slowly revealed that Gavilar was a much darker and more evil man than he first appeared, with megalomania and dreams of attaining godhood, and this causes his reputation to start crumbling.

Urithiru has powered elevators and indoor heating. A prominent scene in Rhythm of War involves a Thaylen vacuum tube. Also, while still at a roughly medieval level, medical technology is roughly around that of the industrial age, primarily due to the presence of rotspren providing a visual indicator of disease. Being able to see rotspren allows people to recognize the importance of soap and antiseptics to repel them and clean wounds, and thus prevent infections and disease - something that in the real world wasn't developed until the 1800s. Also, despite technology being at a medieval level, mounted combat is still in its infancy, due to horses being incredibly rare and expensive and thus rarely risked or experimented with in battle. The Vengeance Pact is the first time that mounted charges are really used. The idea of horseback archery is a random pipe dream that Dalinar muses over at one point.

The Stormlight Archive / int_3e4cb2cc	comment	Weird Weather: Highstorms, solid walls of wind and water sweeping from east to west that scour away any trace of soil, kill anyone caught unprotected, and carry with them the godlike spren who charges exposed gems with Stormlight. Seasons change at seemingly random intervals, generally after a highstorm, and as a result you'll have abrupt shifts from hot summers to frigid winters with no warning. Fortunately, the plant life on Roshar is very hardy and can handle these shifts in weather. Years are marked by a precisely predictable forty-day period of constant rain known as "the Weeping." In the second book, the desperate Parshendi unleash the Everstorm, an even nastier highstorm that travels in the opposite direction and destroys the very ground when the two collide. In the third book, this gets even weirder, as the Everstorm's winds are less destructive but it shoots out lightning that intentionally targets houses and structures to cause widespread ruin. It even vindictively targets temples to the Herald Taln, indicating that Odium himself is directing the Everstorm.

Before too long, even Fused are renouncing their side. The end result is that the war is made up of individuals with different ideals and priorities, not a simple humans versus singers conflict.

The humans turned on the Dawnsingers, so the Dawnsingers joined with Odium and became the Voidbringers. Because the Voidbringers are resurrected infinitely, the modern Fused are the same people who were first betrayed by the humans thousands of years ago.

The Stormlight Archive / int_4de0f392	comment	Your Normal Is Our Taboo: Mostly shows up with the people of Shin versus those from most other countries. For example, the Shin people value humility above all else (to the point that their trade negotiations consist of merchants downplaying the value of their goods rather than exaggerating them) and consider walking on or otherwise touching or damaging stone to be disrespectful. After travelling throughout the other lands, the Shin viewpoint character Szeth reflects that it's rather hard to hold foreigners to these rules considering their lands don't have soil covering the bare rock. The Horneaters have a caste system based on the order in which children are born, which defines their vocation. When Rock explains this to the other bridgemen (mostly from Alethi-related cultures), the oddest part to them is that the Horneaters do not consider being a warrior to be the highest and most respected vocation. Rock also stuns the others by saying that Horneaters consider long-ranged weapons better and more honorable (whereas among Alethi, there's a reason the officers get swords and the grunts get spears). Crosses over with Deliberate Values Dissonance, but this is also true of the general Vorin culture we see with the Alethi and related peoples compared to the readers. For example, literacy is restricted to women.

The rarely-seen Shin may be the only white people in the setting, described as being excessively pale and having eyes that are too round. Additionally, the Alethi are dark-skinned and black-haired. Going deeper, race and hair/eye color are less closely correlated on Roshar than on Earth. For instance, Adolin is a tan-skinned Alethi with blonde hair and light eyes. One of the more far-flung races, the Natans, has a blueish tint to their skin. The trope is also averted among the parshmen.

As it happens, this second book—which was eventually named Words of Radiance—apparently clocks in at 1088. Any longer, it would have been unpublishable. Oathbringer bests that at 1264 pages, by using thinner paper. The audiobooks aren't much different. The Way of Kings lasts a good 45 hours 37 minutes. Words of Radiance? 48 hours 13 minutes. Oathbringer blows them both out of the water at 55 hours and 6 minutes. Rhythm of War tops out higher still, at 57 hours and 26 minutes, a full feature film longer than the book that required thinner paper to get the print edition out the door. Hope you enjoy listening, because you're going to be doing a lot of it. For comparison, the first Mistborn book, The Final Empire, comes in at 24 hours and 39 minutes, barely half the length of The Way of Kings!

The Stormlight Archive / int_57b80b45	comment	Fantastic Racism: Between the Alethi and the Parshendi/parshmen, as well as between lighteyes and darkeyes in Vorin nations. Nations in the west of Roshar don't seem to divide class by eye color, though. Rooted in the fact that parshmen have a very non-human psychology in addition to a Bizarre Alien Biology, and prior to the setting's written history successfully caused the apocalypse at least once. Moash's story arc suggests that the lighteyes/darkeyes dichotomy may actually be a subversion. After bonding with a Shardblade, his dark eyes lighten. After losing it, they darken again. In addition to the hierarchical racism of the lighteyes/darkeyes dichotomy, each of Roshar's human cultures have markers (for example, the Shin have round eyes, the Horneaters have massive stature, and the Thaylens' eyebrows grow to shoulder length). Each culture tends to carry both positive and negative stereotypes...in a word, racism. Within the singers, we see more of this trope. The Fused pretty explicitly treat other singers as second-class citizens. Additionally, singers have different skin color patterns (white, red, and black in all combinations) and don't seem to get on as well with other skin colors.

The Stormlight Archive / int_57d43e40	comment	Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Downplayed, but present. The Alethi are a religiously dogmatic people with tan skin and black hair. They have only recently united under a single king after generations as squabbling princedoms—very reminiscent of Renaissance Italy. The Azish are a dark-skinned people who live in an empire run by a large and powerful bureacracy, much like India. The Thaylens run an island nation that wields power via trade and a powerful navy, are ruled by a Queen, and have their own little tweaks to the dominant religion, much like 16th century Britain. The Horneaters live on volcanic mountains, and their language sounds Hawaiian. The Alethi are also a mixture of Western Renaissance and Eastern Chinese and Japanese influences, along with Persian and Ottoman aesthetics. For example, the Alethi clothing is similar to Renaissance Western-style long coats, complete with fashionable slashes in the outfits to show different-colored fabric underneath, but they also wear Japanese-style clothing underneath the coats. Their armor, meanwhile, is explicitly styled after Ottoman and Persian breastplates and helmets.

The Stormlight Archive / int_58e83efd	comment	Disease by Any Other Name: Only people who have suffered some form of mental illness and/or a traumatic incident can bond with a spren and become a Surgebinder. Several characters are dealing with issues that readers will be able to identify, but Roshar doesn't specifically have names for. Kaladin has severe depression, post-traumatic stress, and survivor's guilt due to Tien's death and his time as a slave. He also claims that even as a child his mood would worsen during "The Weeping", an annual month of unchanging rain, a form of Seasonal Affective Disorder. By extension, most of the early Windrunners have PTSD from their bridge running days. Shallan has PTSD as a result of her abusive childhood, and her brothers show signs of being similarly affected. In Oathbringer she begins to exhibit signs of Dissociative Identity Disorder. By the time of Rhythm of War this has developed into a system of three personas dubbed simply the Three, and her personas are described explcitly as "alters" once. Renarin suffers from a "blood weakness" which Kaladin later identifies as epilepsy, specifically myoclonic seizures. Word of God has also stated that Renarin is on the Autism spectrum, which is hinted at in his social awkwardness and occasionally stimming with a small, metal box he keeps with him. Dalinar may have been a bona fide sociopath, given his bloodlust, ambition, and cruel treatment of his wife and that's before he killed her, which was at least on accident; this seems to have been fixed by the Nightwatcher. Regardless, he is explicitly a recovering alcoholic, after using wine to dull his memories of his wife and brother. Teft struggles with a lifetime of addiction, this time to a Fantastic Drug called firemoss that seems to be Roshar's version of magic mushrooms.

When Dalinar becomes a Bondsmith and then picks up Oathbringer, he hears a "dull" scream that's much less intense; the Stormfather explains that the dead spren is aware of the honorable oath he made to hand Oathbringer over to free the bridgemen, and as a result it "hates (Dalinar) less" than it does everyone else.

The Stormlight Archive / int_6622ae42	comment	Nonhuman Undead: Shardblades are, for all intents and purposes, zombie spren. They were killed when the humans they were bonded to broke their oaths, and are partly revived by the ten heartbeats it takes to summon one. They are also in extreme pain when summoned, and if an active Radiant touches one, they and the person wielding it can hear it screaming. In Oathbringer we get to see Adolin's Blade manifested in spren form in Shadesmar. She looks like her eyes are scratched out like a painting that was damaged, appears to be made of dead vines, and is mostly unresponsive except for following Adolin around unless prevented from doing so. And screaming when he reflexively tries to summon the Blade. Other spren refer to these spren as "deadeyes". The Fused are essentially Parshendi liches, with the soul of the original bearer of the body dying and their body being taken over by the Fused, who is a long-dead listener who serves Odium. There is no known way to return the previous soul to the listener's body, as the soul moves on to the Spiritual Realm.

The Stormlight Archive / int_671681af	comment	Jackass Genie: The Nightwatcher, who will grant seemingly any wish, for a price. In fact, most people who go to the Nightwatcher end up regretting it. Only two people we've encountered don't regret this. One we have only heard of was one man who made his wish to feed his family through a harsh winter. His curse was that he saw the world upside-down for the rest of his life. It was weird, but he got used to it. The other was Lift, who seems somewhat immune to regret. For Dalinar, the Nightwatcher erased all his memories of his wife. He can't remember anything about her except that she existed, and whenever someone speaks her name, all he can hear is shshshssh. As of The Way of Kings, it's unclear whether this is his curse or his wish. In Oathbringer we learn that it was both his wish and curse, but was actually granted to him not by the Nightwatcher, but by her mother Cultivation.

The Stormlight Archive / int_6c3d1777	type	Magic A Is Magic A
The Stormlight Archive / int_6c3d1777	comment	Magic A Is Magic A: There are at least two different (though related) systems: fabrials and Surgebinding. Fabrials are a form of Magitek: by trapping a spren in a gemstone and providing it with Stormlight, you can force the spren to do whatever you designed the fabrial to do, from emitting warmth to telekinetically synchronizing two objects to turning rocks into (bland) food. Surgebinding is granted by the Nahel bond, a link between a human and a spren whereby the spren gains sentience in the Physical Realm and the human gains Surgebinding powers. All Surgebinders can inhale Stormlight to gain enhanced strength and speed and a moderate Healing Factor, but each order can also use Stormlight to accomplish specific magical effects. Each Surge is shared by two orders, but their uses by each order can differ, and the surges of their orders can also combine to produce a new, unique effect. Windrunners have the Surge of Gravitation, allowing them to redefine "down" at their discretion. So a Windrunner can decide that gravity now pulls them forwards or up or sideways, and they will fall in that direction. Or they can make an enemy fall straight up into the sky. Windrunners can also increase an object's gravitational pull towards another specific object, allowing them to pull arrows out of the air and into a shield or bridge or whatever. Finally, Windrunners can also use the Surge of Adhesion to fuse together two objects with a temporary but virtually unbreakable bond. Combined, they allow Windrunners to have more squires than other orders: the metaphorical implications are of a gravitational hero who binds people together. Skybreakers share the Surge of Gravitation and also possess the Surge of Division. Dustbringers/Releasers possess the Surge of Division and the Surge of Abrasion, letting them control friction and turn things to dust. What little we've seen of them implies their resonance powers have to do with fire. Edgedancers can also control friction, letting them climb walls like a gecko or slide over floors as if they were greased. They also possess the Healing Hands magic known as Regrowth and could furthermore use this to quickly grow plants. One of their resonance abilities seems to be reducing social friction: code-switching with ease between scholars, beggars, and even the deeply formal Heralds. It's a shock to see Lift of all people suddenly break out the formal diction. Truthwatchers have the Healing Hands ability of Regrowth and demonstrated the power to discern the future, albeit cryptically. "True" Truthwatchers are implied to see things in the present. Renarin's ability to see the future, and even then not a guaranteed future, is heavily implied to be the result of having bonded with a corrupted Truthwatcher spren or even one of Odium's spren. They also share the Surge of Illumination with Lightweavers, though their use of it could be different. Lightweavers gain the Surge of Transformation, the ability to transform one substance into another (such as turning a bandit's body from flesh to glass, turning rocks into food, or a goblet into blood). They also can conjure incredibly detailed illusions, complete with sounds and motions. Combined, they allow Lightweavers to have superhuman mnemonic abilities. It also seems to help them transform people through interaction, changing how they see themselves to bring out their best qualities. Elsecallers share the Surge of Transformation, but also have the Surge of Transportation, which lets them translate between Realms and teleport from one point to another. Willshapers share the Surge of Transportation and also possess the Surge of Cohesion. Stonewards possess the Surges of Cohesion (which lets them mold solid objects like wet clay) and Tension (which lets them stiffen and harden normally flexible substances. Bondsmiths share the Surges of Tension and Adhesion, but due to their high power level are able to use them to accomplish far more spectacular feats than other orders. A bondsmith's use of Adhesion appears to also be able to reach into other realms and adhere mystical connections, such as languages or how an object sees itself with what it actually is. Presumably, this is what allowed for Dalinar to lock Odium to the Combat by Champion and create Honor's Perpendicularity at the climax of Oathbringer. Voidbinding also exists as the magic of Odium. It seems similar to Surgebinding, with some slight differences in how each Surge can be applied, but it seems to draw primarily from Voidlight instead of Stormlight. Also, Voidbinders only have access to one Surge each rather than two. Another difference is that the Surge of Adhesion is unavailable to Voidbinders, being referred to as a "Surge of Honor".

The Stormlight Archive / int_6cc2137b	comment	The Scream: A Radiant who touches a Shardblade that died when the Radiants abandoned their oaths will hear a terrifying, ear-splitting scream from the spren that was killed by the broken oath. If a Radiant touches a Blade that somebody else is holding, that person will hear the screaming as well, and apparently be accused of murdering the spren. This is enough to cause Relis to panic, drop the Blade, scream in anguish, and then flee the scene when Kaladin performs a Barehanded Blade Block. When Dalinar becomes a Bondsmith and then picks up Oathbringer, he hears a "dull" scream that's much less intense; the Stormfather explains that the dead spren is aware of the honorable oath he made to hand Oathbringer over to free the bridgemen, and as a result it "hates (Dalinar) less" than it does everyone else. In Oathbringer, Adolin attempts to summon his Blade while in Shadesmar. The deadeye spren standing next to him promptly starts screaming.

The Stormlight Archive / int_740f59b4	comment	Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Weirdly, wines come in not just "red" and "white" but an entire chromatic range, each known for its particular strength and piquance. This is probably another case of Call a Smeerp a "Rabbit", as actual grape wines, red and white, are exclusively an exotic Shin drink. The examples we've seen so far do seem to fit a possible pattern: all are among the seven traditional colors of the rainbow (ROYGBIV) in ascending order of alcohol content. Orange is non-alcoholic and yellow is mild, while blue and violet are much more intoxicating. White wine is essentially hard liquor, while Horneater white is so strong is melts the cups. Turns out the wines are actually just dyed those colors for lighteyes' convenience; lower classes just drink it undyed. Additionally, Stormlight has a pleasant white glow, while Voidlight has a deep purple and ultraviolet light. This makes an easy reference for whether a given use of magic is coming from Honor or Odium. Similarly, the eyes of someone holding Stormlight change to a clear light color, while someone holding Voidlight has eyes that glow red. Lifelight is faintly green in comparison to Stormlight. Combinations of Light, as Navani discovers in Rhythm of War, are the colors of both component parts at once.

The Stormlight Archive / int_7583ecbf	comment	Morality Kitchen Sink: The series is practically a case study of this trope. On one end of the scale, there are the Radiants, who are all trying very hard to do the right thing at every turn, but who often disagree on just what the right thing is — they are all on board with protecting the innocent, but each order of Radiants has its own ideas of just who needs the most protecting and how to go about it — and who are also very capable of making mistakes, especially since each Radiant is in some way "broken." On the other we have Odium, the embodiment of God's passion and rage without any of God's gentler virtues to temper it, and thus horrendously evil by most definitions - but nonetheless someone who can honestly claim that without him and what he represents, humans would be incapable of being human. In between the two, we have an entire World Half Full of people who aren't evil, per se, and who might if pressed on the subject admit that they'd like to be good, but who nevertheless feel like they have to look after themselves by whatever underhanded means are available because everyone else is doing it and trying to have morals just turns you into a Doomed Moral Victor. And then there's the listeners / Parshendi, who look an awful lot like someone's Legion of Doom but who are in fact the original inhabitants of Roshar who were invaded and ultimately enslaved by the humans, meaning that they are pretty much in a position to wage a Guilt-Free Extermination War on the humans, something that many of the heroes openly acknowledge while still having no intention of letting their people get exterminated. Add to that at least two factions who both think that Utopia Justifies the Means, and one who thinks that the human conscience is inherently flawed and that following a pre-existing code of conduct with psychotic strictness is the only morally permissible option. Yeah, if Sanderson hasn't represented every imaginable shade of morality in this series, it certainly isn't for lack of trying!

The Stormlight Archive / int_820ac3c5	comment	Dysfunction Junction: Justified. If you want to be a Surgebinder, being broken is a prerequisite. Damage to the mind and spirit is necessary for a spren to form the bond needed to grant Surgebinding. Shallan's entire household is made up of these. Shallan is broken from the trauma of her mother's death, and as a child she was rendered mute for months. Every time she remembers what happens, she blanks out and her mind shuts off as a defensive mechanism. Her brothers include a sadist who pulls the legs off of small cremlings, a gambling addict drunkard, and a pyromaniac. Her father was so violent and abusive that he nearly killed one of his sons before Shallan killed him herself. The only one in her family that is remotely level-headed is the eldest brother, Helaran, and even he joined the Skybreakers and was ultimately killed by Kaladin.

It turns out that there's a reason for the blades to be so big: they were intended to fight large battles against great numbers of foes, as well as massive beasts made of stone that were hard to kill with conventional weapons. The Blades themselves can actually change shape, but when the Knights Radiant broke their oaths they largely abandoned the Blades in their massive configurations, killing their spren and locking them in that shape.

The (admittedly demoralized) survivors can fill back in behind them after they pass to easily retake strategic ground or — more frequently — require the Shardbearer to fight their way back through if they need to get to friendly ground. Moreover, while the Shards make things much easier, a Shardbearer can still get tired, or their Plate can get tangled up or otherwise tripped, or their enemies can just gradually chip away enough for things to break anyway (especially after the previous immobilization). Indeed, Shardbearers are usually supported by a small, elite squad following close behind rather than just rushing out on their own.

Words of Radiance, Part 5: The War of Reckoning ends with an invasion on Narak, Eshonai and most of the other listeners die, Kaladin saves Elhokar, regains his bond with Syl, speaks the third Oath and beats Szeth, the Everstorm is unleashed, Shallan speaks her third truth, opens the Oathgate and discovers the long-lost city of Urithiru. And even after all of that, Sadeas is killed by Adolin, and Dalinar bonds the Stormfather, becomes a Bondsmith and speaks his first two Oaths. Same here: The whole book builds up to this part, but in this case, a lot of these things have been set up since the beginning of The Way of Kings. Oathbringer, Part 3: Kholinar is lost to Odium's forces, Elhokar is killed, almost a dozen of named minor characters die, the heroes in Kholinar are involuntarily sent to Shadesmar - and Dalinar's memories of Evi's death return. Also Oathbringer, Part 5: Szeth joins Dalinar, Dalinar takes a stand against Odium and opens Honor's Perpendicularity, the Radiants fight the Fused in Thaylen City, Urithitu is attacked, Teft speaks his third Oath, Amaram is killed (after being established as an antagonist in the first book), Nergaoul is captured, Jasnah made queen - among other things. Rhythm of War includes such highlights as Urithiru being occupied by the Singers, Navani being forced to collaborate with a mad scientist and revolutionizing the understanding of Investiture, Navani inventing weapons that can kill the Fused, the Fused learning to do the same to Radiant spren, Navani becoming a Bondsmith, and the full restoration of Urithiru. Not to mention the largest Mass "Oh, Crap!" for fans, Taravangian killing Rayse and assuming the mantle of Odium.

They are so destructive that civilization is often broken by the time they end, to the point that the Heralds won't even be sure if the next civilizations can forge bronze when they show up to fight the next one. However, the Heralds' abandoning of the Oathpact at the start of the first book and the Parshendi's abandoning of their gods appears to have delayed the Desolations long enough for a rather advanced set of societies to develop. That said, Shardblades are considered the superweapon of the setting, four thousand years after the previous Desolation, implying civilization never moved past a tech level where armored knights with swords were the premier military strategy. And that's before we consider that modern Shardblades are dead, making them inferior to the same weapons when wielded by their Radiants.

Because the Alethi can't move their entire force out onto the Shattered Plains without getting surrounded by the much more mobile Parshendi, they instead cut off escape to the west and proceeded to engage in a seven-year-long war of attrition to reduce the Parshendi numbers, with much of the fighting occurring over the gemhearts left by slain chasmfiends (used to power Soulcasting). While an effective strategy, the siege causes massive strain on Alethkar itself, costs a tremendous number of lives, and eventually pushes the Parshendi to develop stormform bodies, which triggers their Demonic Possession, starts up a new Everstorm, and begins the next Desolation.

The Stormlight Archive / int_91e894b4	comment	Apocalypse How: The Desolations were repeated examples of Planetary/Societal Collapse and borderline Planetary/Species Extinction. The normal casualty figures are around 90% of the human race, and it's apparently a toss-up as to whether humanity can struggle back up to Bronze Age tech or Iron Age tech by the time the next Desolation comes along. The current Desolation has been delayed far longer than most, giving humanity time to get much further up the tech tree than the normal. Oathbringer notes that one of the biggest problems with the Desolations was the Heralds' resolve being gradually ground down over time. Large spans of time passed between the early Desolations, but that period of rebuilding became shorter and shorter over time. The time between the ultimate and penultimate Desolations was less than a year, which is why the situation was so desperate. The destruction of the surface of humanity's old planet, Ashyn, was an even greater example. While the planet wasn't rendered completely uninhabitable, the only survivors who didn't flee to Roshar are forced to live in magical flying cities.

The chief guard of the caravan rescued by Shallan is also the one who orchestrated Jasnah's assassination. The Shardbearer killed by Kaladin in his Dark and Troubled Past happens to be Shallan's missing older brother. Everyone knows Wit, but he doesn't count because he's doing it on purpose. The Brightlord that Dalinar exiled to Kaladin's hometown used to menace Moash's family before menacing Kaladin's family. The slaver that sold Kaladin to Sadeas was the same one that Shallan hired to get her to the Shattered Plains. This is noted as being a pattern in Edgedancer; one of the most knowledgeable characters notes that Surgebinders tend to clump together and get into contact if left to their own devices and surmises that they must be drawn to one another. This is in play on the night of Gavilar's assassination. Not only are the parshendi there (including the, at that time, very unimportant Eshonai and Venli),and Gavilar's family, and the political elite of Alethkar, as you would expect, but four of the Heralds.

The Stormlight Archive / int_9823f7c	comment	Proud Warrior Race: The Parshendi. While perfectly willing to target bridgemen to disrupt incoming attacks, once battle is joined they focus on targeting the strongest and most capable of enemy combatants, avoiding the wounded, invalid, or noncombatant if possible. Unless they're disturbing Parshendi bodies... The Alethi deconstruct it; most brightlords are more interested in looking the part than living it. In addition, many Alethi have the "Thrill," a form of bloodlust that grips them in battle, and they've become so glory-hungry that they consider even thinking about peace cowardice. The Alethi used to be a straight example of this trope: Back in the days of the Silver Kingdoms, Alethela (as it was then known) was specifically designated as the nation of warriors, the ones whose job it was to protect the other nine Kingdoms against the Voidbringers.

The Stormlight Archive / int_9b54d536	comment	Evil Counterpart: Comes up on a lot of levels. The greater conflict of the setting originated between Honor and Odium, two Gods of the Cosmere who look so alike that Odium has to introduce himself as, "the other one," at least once. Honor's Stormlight powers most magic on Roshar. The Singers get their own magic when the Everstorm adds Voidlight to the mix. The bonding of a mortal being and an immortal being is the foundation of the Knights Radiant (a human and a spren) and the Fused (a Singer and the soul of a Fused). Note that the Radiant pairing is symbiotic, while the Fused pairing functionally kills the Singer. Most of the power sets used by the Knights Radiant and the Fused are reflections of each other. This is especially apparent in Rhythm of War, where the Fused varieties start getting named and explicitly compared to their Radiant equivalents.

In terms of a person's Calling, it seems to boil down to men being physical and women being creative and/or scholarly. Although it gets into even weirder territory with safehands and the fact that they're not even supposed to eat the same food. That being said, by the third book, things have slowly started to change, with Dalinar learning to read, multiple female Radiants wielding Shardblades, and women being openly trained as soldiers in Bridge Four.

In Words of Radiance it is heavily implied that Zahel is Vasher. Also Nightblood makes an appearance, given to Szeth. Confirmed by Sanderson. Oathbringer also heavily implies that Highmarshal Azure is Vivenna, searching out Vasher. Confirmed by Sanderson. The Ghostbloods' trophies: A vial of pale sand - from Taldain. A couple of thick hairpins - Hemalurgic spikes. A lock of golden hair - belonging to a Returned. A branch with writing on it - an object presumed to be from Yolen. A silver knife - from Threnody.

Deconstructed with the recurring quote "A Shardbearer cannot hold ground": a single Shardbearer can indeed generate a full army's body count, but they're still just one person on the battlefield. The (admittedly demoralized) survivors can fill back in behind them after they pass to easily retake strategic ground or — more frequently — require the Shardbearer to fight their way back through if they need to get to friendly ground. Moreover, while the Shards make things much easier, a Shardbearer can still get tired, or their Plate can get tangled up or otherwise tripped, or their enemies can just gradually chip away enough for things to break anyway (especially after the previous immobilization). Indeed, Shardbearers are usually supported by a small, elite squad following close behind rather than just rushing out on their own.

The Stormlight Archive / int_a6b14ee1	comment	Hollywood Tactics: In-Universe, Justified examples: The Alethi are on the whole VERY good at war, and individual highprinces' armies are quite disciplined and use effective battlefield tactics, but they're still very much feudal and have only been unified into one kingdom for roughly a decade. Because of this, despite the fact that the ostensible purpose of the war is to punish the Parshendi for murdering the king, the Highprinces are mainly concerned with hunting the beasts that provide them with gemhearts and the wealth they represent, and only fight against the Parshendi when it's necessary to reach the plateau where the beast is spotted or withdraw back to their camps after claiming the gemheart. Dalinar has noticed this and is trying to turn the campaign into an actual war. Assaulting defended walls without besieging is entirely justified in-universe by highstorms; you cannot hope to siege a city where any temporary constructions you build beyond the walls will be blown away in a couple of days by a highstorm, and Soulcasters mean starving a city out is nearly impossible. Any invasion needs to be quick, brutal, and violent, often with Shardbearers to break the defenses. In addition, cities are often built in such a way to shelter them from the constant devastating effects of highstorms, putting them in sub-optimal defensive positions as a result. The city of Kholinar takes advantage of the storms by having everything outside the city's walls within a day's march cleared away, leaving no buildings, hills, or forests of any kind to shelter a potential invader.

Although in the second book, Kaladin's arm is killed by Szeth's blade, and it does recover. This is because Szeth's sword is actually an Honorblade, which gives Szeth weaker Surgebinding than Kaladin has. Kaladin's regenerative powers won't heal his slave brand until he realizes that his failures are anything but during Rhythm of War. This is due to the fact that Stormlight healing restores the body to the "ideal Spiritual self", combined with how the patient perceives themselves, Stormlight will not heal Kaladin's brand or Rysn's paraplegia because they have each internalised them to become part of their identity.

The Stormlight Archive / int_b9f472b	comment	Assaulting defended walls without besieging is entirely justified in-universe by highstorms; you cannot hope to siege a city where any temporary constructions you build beyond the walls will be blown away in a couple of days by a highstorm, and Soulcasters mean starving a city out is nearly impossible. Any invasion needs to be quick, brutal, and violent, often with Shardbearers to break the defenses. In addition, cities are often built in such a way to shelter them from the constant devastating effects of highstorms, putting them in sub-optimal defensive positions as a result. The city of Kholinar takes advantage of the storms by having everything outside the city's walls within a day's march cleared away, leaving no buildings, hills, or forests of any kind to shelter a potential invader.

The Stormlight Archive / int_bf1b02b	comment	Fictional Currency: "Spheres", which are glass beads with gemstones embedded in them. The spheres themselves are always the same size, but the gems inside them come in three different sizes: chips, marks, and broams. Ten different gemstones are used; their relative value is based on their usefulness in Soulcasting (see Magic A Is Magic A, below). To make things even more complicated, sometimes different names are used for the gems. DetailsSpheres are roughly the size of a person's thumbnail, usually with one side slightly flattened so you can set them down without them rolling away. Chips are the smallest denominations, with just a tiny shard of gemstone; marks are larger, worth five chips; broams are the largest. Different gems used include diamond (the lowest), garnet, zircon, sapphire, ruby, and emerald (the highest). One emerald broam (the highest possible denomination) is worth one thousand diamond chips (the lowest possible denomination), and the system seems to be based on multiples of five. Their alternate names are descriptive; diamonds are "clear", garnets are "blood", sapphires are "sky", and rubies are "fire" — e.g., a clearchip is a diamond chip, a firemark is a ruby mark, etc.

The Stormlight Archive / int_bf487e2b	comment	Translator Microbes: It initially appears that Dalinar's visions are translated for his benefit, but it eventually turns out that it's the other way around—he's speaking and understanding ancient languages so perfectly he doesn't even notice, which is the source of the "gibberish" witnesses hear him speaking. The Heralds are implied to have something similar going on, since they speak the local dialect perfectly even if they've been out of touch for four and a half thousand years. Zahel and other characters from different worlds also have something similar. Zahel speaks Alethi perfectly with no mention of an accent, but still uses his own idioms, which are translated literally and become nonsense. As of Oathbringer, Dalinar can use his powers as a Bondsmith to temporarily learn another person's language by establishing a spiritual connection with them.

The Stormlight Archive / int_c02f148d	comment	Both Sides Have a Point: A running theme throughout the stories is that both sides in a war are usually fighting for a reason and that, even if the reasons of the leadership are simple greed or hate, most of the soldiers have a lot more in common with each other than their leaders. This is also a major problem in the conflict with the Singers, and comes to a head in Oathbringer. Odium, god of hate, has worked very hard for millennia to engineer a situation where basically everyone has a perfectly legitimate reason to...well... hate each other. It makes peace virtually impossible, and disadvantages the side trying to be moral.

The Stormlight Archive / int_c0f87dda	comment	Humans Are Warriors: In the ancient past, humans departed from Shinovar to conquer almost the entire rest of Roshar, completely destroying ancient Singer society save for a small, remote group gone primitive. The Alethi in particular exemplify this trope. They possess an above-average number of shards (most highprinces have at least one Shard, while the king possesses half a dozen sets and his brother has two more sets) and Soulcasters. This gives them battlefield superiority and Easy Logistics to wage long campaigns other nations would balk at. There's also the fact that they have The Thrill one of the Unmade on their side, let them fight harder and longer than their foes.

This starts to break down as of Oathbringer, as Dalinar becomes the first powerful highborn man to openly learn to read, and a number of women start bonding spren and become Radiants. This does cause some friction, but Dalinar is too powerful for much to come of his literacy, and the forces at Urithiru are so desperate for Knights Radiant that they can't afford to turn away any female recruits. Defied with the Parshendi, where there is almost no difference at all between the genders outside of mateform.

Garnet, rusty red, blood. Zircon, yellow, oil. Amethyst, purple, metal. Topaz, brown, stone. Heliodor, golden, flesh.

The Stormlight Archive / int_edcc813f	type	Fantastic Caste System
The Stormlight Archive / int_edcc813f	comment	Fantastic Caste System: The Parshendi can shift between a variety of different forms, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses. Warform is the one we usually see them in, making them big and strong and causing them to grow an armored carapace. Workform is similar to warform, but without the armor and with a mental block against conflict. Mateform is used for reproduction, while nimbleform is generally dexterous and quick, while the lost scholarform is intelligent, artform is creative, and meditationform introspective and good for teaching. Finally, we have dullform, a baseline form with no distinguishing properties, and slaveform, the mindless state that most parshmen exist in. There's also Stormform, one of their Voidbringer forms, which turns them into hate-filled killing machines that can generate lightning and in large groups can summon an Everstorm, Nightform for predicting the future, Smokeform for stealth and more. Including a decayform. Post-Everstorm, the Singers have a fairly concrete hierarchy. Humans are on the bottom, treated as slaves. Then come normal Singers whose forms are created by bonding with a normal spren of Roshar. Above them are Regals, Singers who have bonded a corrupted spren of Odium, granting them low-level supernatural powers. At the top are the Fused, immortal Singers from past Desolations, who answer only to Odium. The Alethi and other Vorin kingdoms have their own caste system, dividing people into the roles of lighteyes (higher-caste, denoted by having bright eye colors like pale blue or green or violet), darkeyes (lower-caste with very dark blues or browns or blacks) and ardents (priests who are considered the possessions of their rulers, and thus exempt from many societal norms like the taboo on men reading). Within the castes is also a hierarchy of ten ranks ("nahn" for darkeyes and "dahn" for lighteyes), earned via a meritocracy, which determines rights such as land ownership and the ability to marry into a higher caste. Some lighteyes, known as "tenners," are in the lowest dahn (tenth) and are virtually indistinguishable from the mid-upper ranks of darkeyes, save for their eye color.

A bondsmith's use of Adhesion appears to also be able to reach into other realms and adhere mystical connections, such as languages or how an object sees itself with what it actually is. Presumably, this is what allowed for Dalinar to lock Odium to the Combat by Champion and create Honor's Perpendicularity at the climax of Oathbringer.

This sparked a still-ongoing war over the abandoned and now much less powerful Shards, and effectively killed the spren who powered their gear and abilities and who were bonded to the Radiants by the strength of the Knights' oaths. In The Way of Kings, Highprince Sadeas betrays Dalinar by having his army retreat halfway though a battle and take their bridges with them, stranding Dalinar's army on a plateau with a swarm of Parshendi reinforcements on the way.

The Stormlight Archive / int_f8173bd9	comment	Medieval European Fantasy: Odd subversion. The Alethi and related cultures at first seem to be this, with their knights and castles and lords and so forth, while other cultures like the Shin seem like Wutai. But then there's an interlude where we actually visit the Shin lands, and in fact they are much more 'normal' feeling to the reader because they have fertile soil and plants that are familiar to us (such as strawberries and non-motile grass) but treated as exotic and alien by the Alethi. To play with this even more, the Shin are the only race on Roshar that don't have "Eastern" almondine eyes. It's noted to give the Shin a "childlike" appearance. Looking at a lot of the drawings and sketches, it actually looks like the Alethi draw heavily from Ottoman and Chinese cultures, at least as far as clothing and armor designs go.

The Stormlight Archive / int_fba50b70	comment	Perpetual Storm: It's mentioned in passing that some people theorize highstorms are actually one single storm that circles the world, rather than fresh storms each time. Given that the Stormfather is in every highstorm, it's entirely possible this theory is true. In the first book, there is talk of "the Everstorm" that is yet to come, which seems to be a metaphor for the Final Battle (see also A Storm Is Coming). However, given that the world is periodically wracked by powerful storms which may or may not be sent by the Big Bad, there might be a literal storm in the offing. At the end of book two, the Voidbringers summon the Everstorm. It is a cyclical storm like the highstorms, except for two things. First, it carries with it spren that will transform parshmen into Voidbringers. Second, it moves around the world in the opposite direction from highstorms, so buildings sheltered and reinforced to be protected from regular highstorms may be devastated by the everstorm. Needless to say, this is very bad.
