Brandon Sanderson / Verin in The Great Hunt-very slight spoiler
« on: March 11, 2009, 09:30:50 PM »
As I was re-reading The Great Hunt one thing jumped out at me that I found weird. It was when Verin, The Shenarians, Rand, Matt, and Perrin were visiting Stedding Tsofu in Chapter 36. Alar, Eldest of the Elders, asked Verin to touch an Ogier named Trayal who was the last Ogier to come out of the Waygate alive since they were requesting permission to use the Waygate on their way to Toman Head. What she found was an Ogier who was completely empty inside. No soul, nothing. Now I was under the impression that once inside a stedding the True Source basically does not exist. Anyone able to touch the True Source would feel an "emptiness" where the Source had previously been. Yet Verin lays her hands on Trayal and comes away sayings that he's empty inside. How would she do this if she was unable to touch the Source?

Brandon Sanderson / Vin as HOA?
« on: April 21, 2008, 04:00:39 AM »
As I am re-reading The Well of Ascension a thought keeps popping into my head. What if Vin is not the HOA. What if Elend is? The writing that Sazed is translating sounds as much like Elend as it does like Vin. Am I way off here? Anyone else think this is even remotely possible? If it is then this would be a pretty cool twist, but I thought I would ask some of our more smarter(lol) readers their opinions.

Again this is just a thought that keeps popping into my head. I could be way, way, way off here. There could be so much "evidence" that Vin is the HOA as to make this post quite rediculous(sp?) but i can't recall reading anything that jumped out at me about it. Anyone have any prophecies or anything else that you can recall to prove my point wrong?

Not sure if I want to be proven wrong but I am curious to know what everyone thinks.
