People constantly rail on Sazed that he is a hypocrite in Era 2. I’ve seen people get genuinely angry about him, complaining that’s not how he was in Era 1. But like, it literally makes sense that he’s a hypocrite now. His entire being is a hypocrite. Literally 100% of him seeks to keep things the same and safe, and 100% of him seeks to see things destroyed. Thats how the Shards he holds works. The intents completely contradict. So if his whole being contradicts itself, he will obviously contradict himself on smaller matters.
Elhokar really needed one of two things:
1) Tindwyl
2) To have an assassination attempt on him that would leave his mind blank and to have Shai repair his mind, slightly changing it will slowly change "from a dreamer to a doer" (this is a quote from Emperor's soul)

Hello. Welcome to my talk. Today I'll be presenting my work on why the book Fool's Errand is actually a romance novel. Please hold questions until the end.
Please hold for part 2
What the storm did you do, you cremling son of a chull? I'll have you know I graduated at top of my class in the Windrunner Initiates. I have been involved in numerous secret campaigns against the Parshendi, and I have over 300 confirmed shards. I am trained in bridge-running and I am the top Windrunner in the entire Alethi military. You are nothing to me but another target. I will wipe you out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on Roshar, mark my words.

NOBODY HERE IS TALKING ABOUT CANON MARE ART YET?????
That would be so reckless of me. Who would leave 100+ DnD materials just laying around?
Concept: Depressing dystopian factory where everything is gray and samey and the workers are called by their employee numbers by an ominous deep voice.
But it's a really great place to work with high salaries, excellent benefits, and a flexible working schedule with plenty of paid leave. They just like the dystopian aesthetic.
Bold fucking claim for me to make given atium and the Surge of Division letting people SPLIT THE DAMN ATOM but hear me out.
At Second Heightening (200 Breaths) an Awakener gains perfect pitch. If an Awakener hummed an Anti-Tone (Anti-Stormlight/Anti-Voidlight), would they be able to just neuter a Radiant. And I wonder if an Anti-Tone could exist for other magic systems, given that Bronze lets someone burning it hear the Rhythms of other metals. Just need a scholar or something to figure out the Anti-Tone of Preservation and you can also completely fuck over a Mistborn/any Allomancer. Thank you for coming to this insane ramble because I enjoy far overthinking Brandon Sanderson's magic systems and mix matching different planets systems to create hypothetically the strongest possible mix.
I need to be allowed to pester Brandon with questions but I would get plenty RAFO cards.
