#iamastick

I was reading The Way Of Kings Prime (minor spoilers ahead!) and I found this segment where Jasnah uses the WOK Prime version of soulcasting to turn wood into fire....... could it be that Brandon planned the stick from the beginning?? Did he feel remorse at making this poor wooden table be so swiftly turned into fire that he decided to rewrite its narrative, allowing the wooden stick to resist when Shallan attempted the same magic herself?? Could this table exist somewhere in canon Way of Kings, a leg broken off to take the form of the stick we all know and love, the rest turned to fire as its forlorn wooden leg looked on, unable to stop the transformation but suddenly possessed of the supernatural ability to do what its brethren could not, to resist the call to become fire??? Brandon tells us that he had no plans for our brave protagonist, the stick, but I think that here we have definitive proof that there is more to this story than meets the eye.......

Stick: I am a stick

Thor: but you could be Loki
