I read stuff

I posted my other rambles on my main but now I'm moving them back here. Because I read stuff.

Finished it 😨

She beat every point! This thing itself isn't even really analogous, it wasn't about protecting self at the cost of allies at all! You're going to somehow jump from her luring people to attack her, to abandoning allies and letting odium rule?!!

You have got to be freaking KIDDING ME.

If this is the thing that gets her I'm going to be MURDEROUS

HOWEVER. Now Jasnah is returning tired to Thaylenah and I'm SCARED. Odium/Taravangian is already so competent and worrying 😭 and he's so confident, he surely has a masterful plan!

How on EARTH is Jasnah supposed to defeat him? We don't even know what brilliant stroke(s) he's going to apply to turn the city!! AGGGHHH 😭

So the way things look now, in a kind of meta way, is that the Shattered Plains will be saved by the secret last-minute plan, Thaylen City will fall to Odium by stinking PERSUASION, obviously the other pieces of the Azish empire already defected, but Azimir itself will survive with Maya's last-minute help (thoughhhh Adolin might not get that leg back 😬).

We still don't know what this FREAKING challenge will be, and Dalinar's running out of time to get back to the Physical Realm. Fortunately at least Navani and Gav got out.

SPEAKING OF WHICH

I feel so bad for little Gav 😭. And I don't know what Odium's doing exactly but I'm afraid he's manipulating him as well as torturing him. Poor boy's been through way too much already!! Plus... I recall some fan theories that the challenge would involve Dalinar being pitted against Gav in some way, or Gav being in danger or needing to be hurt in order to win or something 😭😭😭 and that is looking... ah... Rather possible with this setup of him seeing all this and thinking Odium is his dad 😭😭😭. Not looking good rn 😬😬

And then Kaladin's supposed to... save the spren or something?? And Ba-Ado-Mishram is still there, and Shallan and Renarin and Rlain are still on their journey. At least I'm confident Kaladin will succeed in helping Szeth, and maybe he can even get Nale (despite the fact that they're about to duel to the death 💀).

I'm early into Day 9 rn and SO scared.
