First of all, I just think there needs to be a thread created for discussion, so that way we can keep it all in one place instead of having a few dozen threads that I know are going to start popping up now that the prologue is out in the open. If somebody disagrees and thinks discussion of WoK is too early then feel free to wipe this little thread from the face of the forums.
START OFF! SPOILER ALERT! AHHHH!
I can't say enough how much I enjoyed the prologue. It definately did what it was supposed to do, slap me in the face with awesomeness and make me ask what just happened. Brandon, I gotta say that you've created another really imaginative magic system. Gravity is something that is SO structured in the world that seeing it manipulated so freely brings feelings of what if to my mind. I can't wait to see what other magic systems are there and what else can be done with lashings.
I'm wondering if the number 10 plays a big part in the series. We've seen 16 played out many times in the Cosmere. 10 heart beats for a Shardblade seems like a structured number to me. Or it is just structured for Szeth that way. MAYBE! Other Shardbearers can call their blades with more beats if they are weaker, don't possess high amounts of Stormlight?
Just something to spark conversation. I really want to see some speculation and hints coming out at some point. Atleast, imo, speculation can't ruin a book before it's out. Only enhance the experience.
Who's with me?
