Brandon Sanderson / Re: Cosmere Discussion ***SPOILERS for ALL books***
« on: May 16, 2011, 04:45:31 AM »
I'm not at all versed on the mythology like those who are discussing here. I have however read all the books.
There is a lot of shard related symbology in TWOK. Might it be possible that it is somewhat centrally located to the Cosmere. Possibly it having 3 shards would indicate that it may be special in relation to the other worlds.
Shard Blades / Shard Plate / Heralds / Hoit playing a larger role in the story than normal. The general morality of the way of kings is less gritty than the previous books. The characters seem to have a better sense of the history and spiritual world around them.
In the other "2nd generation" worlds are simpler, the characters and story is focused on a more direct and physical threat. TWOK seems to be a setting stage for something larger.
A desolation that has repeated, heros that return.
Help me out maybe i'm way off track here.
