Questioner How would you pronounce Rock's full name? Brandon Sanderson I usually get this wrong. *apprehensively chants the name* I think, but there might be something in there. It actually means... in Horneater you don't have to use a pronoun at the beginning, which is one of the weird things, you usually start with a verb. It means something along the lines of "I saw a beautiful wet stone that no one is paying attention to, but it was really cool because of the water pattern on it." Right, like, that's what his name means, and it kinda just means "Hey, appreciate the beauty of nature." Its kind of a little Horneater, their version of the haiku. The meaning is "Nature is beautiful, don't walk past the beauty of nature and ignore it." But his name actually kinda means "lonely, or forgotten rock". But "I saw a beautiful rock washed by rainwater that everyone is ignoring." Anyway, it doesn't translate all that well, I'm using a bunch of weird Asian and Indo-European language structures for this so its not real easy to translate to English. https://wob.coppermind.net/events/90/#e4584

dude gets access to a weapon powered by explosions that turns anyone into a coinshot, that’s technology will and has changed the way the society he came from operates, and that can shoot aluminum, therefore making it much more powerful against alomancers, and he’s like “I don’t look cool enough with this. It’s not elEgANt.“ god, he’s such a little bitch and just a complete vibe
