I don't know. I think that Brandon tapped into strong emotions without having to make people want to cry. I felt almost. . . .  proud. I'm not going to lie. When I read a series I tend to make strong connections with characters and I mourn their passing. The thing about these characters is not that I wasn't connected to them and that I didn't want them to live. It was more that the sacrifices they made during the duration of the trilogy kind of described them. The final sacrifice in the name of everything they stood for was nothing more than valiant and it made me proud. I didn't want to cry because . . . .    well because that was who they were. They were the saviors of a world. Their passing was very iconic and brilliant. For those characters to have the story end in any other way would have been a shortcoming on their behalf. They deserved to do everything they could to save their world and in the end they did.

wow this sums up it all. I totally agree^-^

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Mistborn series (HoA) ending. Major *SPOILER* (duh)

I got a bit moved at the ending. I really enjoyed the end, I believe it to be one of the best I've read(and watched for that matter). When Elend was killed I was a bit sad to be totally honest, but what really moved me(and got me all misty eye'd). Was that speach Elend gave at the caves. I really dont know what im getting at here. Just want to say something about the speach.

Everything Else / 10-Dai

10大ニュース (juu dai nyuusu), is literally a list of 10 big(大) bits of news(ニュース) or events that have happened to you over the past year.

In Japan, the end of the year is filled with parties and drinking, much more so than the beginning of a new one. As the next year fast approaches, people will hold a 忘年会 (bou-nen-kai), or a gathering to forget the current year. This is accomplished through copious amounts of alcohol, and often times, the telling of one’s 10-dai news. It’s like a personal Top-10 list.

This list can contain any 10 events that you feel have affected you deeply, most often in a positive way. As we all close another year here on Earth, I felt it would be fun to combine a little bit of Japanese culture with the community’s penchant for touting your accomplishments. Everyone likes sharing their success, so here’s a perfect chance!

I got this off a FFXI forum I troll. Once again thought it would be fun.

I'd recommand the Inhuman Trilogy by John Marco, "The Eyes of God", "The Devils Armor" and "The Sword of Angels". Thought i add these, I really enjoyed them.
