Lift's story continues in Edgedancer, the stormlight novella inbetween words of radience and Oathbringer, its a big part of the story i definitely recommend you read it!
You mentioned Kaladin being drained of stormlight during the duel. I am just going off memory but this was because he was using a shard helm to defect blows from the other duelists. Shardplate is powered by gems in each piece. Kaladin is basically just a sentient gemstone so the helm was pulling stormlight from him to keep from breaking. I think he even stops using the helm after he realizes it is happening. Sidenote: the shardblades also have a gemstone on the pommel.
@@BillErak That certainly would do it. My last read is more thatn 2 year out but I think Kaladin is only complicit in Moash's plot at this point. Being bonded to an honor spren must be rough. How far would you go for a friend? Would you help him bury a body of a judge that pardoned a criminal that wronged him? Would you feel vindicated if that criminal ended up hurting more people?
Great video as always. As you talked about the interlude of the woman destroying paintings, remember in the first szeth prologue there was a room woth statues of the 10 Heralds, and one of those was destroyed. Glad you liked the lift interlude, a lot of people think her annoying😅 Have fun reading!
Hi Conor, first of all, I love your content about this series so far and the insightful thoughts and theories. I have a small problem tho..😬 I'm reading along with you but I'm reading a different translation of the book. My book is a bit more stretched out so we're at different pages for the same chapters. I'd appreciate it if you shift the title to " 'x' chapters" instead of " 'x' pages". This or mention it in the beginning cause I'm kinda lost sometimes with it 😅 Thx regardless
A few people have asked, I have already scheduled the videos for the rest of this book but when I make new ones I will put the chapters in the video description!
Some really solid connections being made there and some close and super way off guesses as well. As others have said, I suggest reading Edgedancer between Words of Radiance and Oathbringer.
@conorreads That is a good choice to break up the SLA back to backs. Just make sure to read Edgedancer as other people have said it is very much a 2.5 compared to how Secret Histories is Mistborn Adjacent.
I’m glad you’re so intrigued by Lift! She’s so interesting. I’ll second that you should read Edgedancer after Words of Radiance! Keep looking for hints like that painting, you’re picking up on the right things! The emperor of Azir is called the Prima Aquasix :) yes, quite a relevant development. Can’t wait for you to get back to Kaladin haha
I don't know if it is somehow Geo locked (I am located in Europe), but I don't have a join button on your channel, even tough I do on others. Maybe something to look into, in case you are unaware.
It is very hard to know where you are in the book by the thumbnail and the title. I am not sure whether it is an exciting part of the book, and/or if I have viewed it already. Maybe add which chapters?

Interesting I will for sure check it out
@@conorreadsyou can also find edgedancer in the Arcanum Unbounded book, which is a collection of short cosmere stories

There’s a tiMe that he gets drained training in the sand as well
I think he means when Kaladin tried to attack Adolin. It doesn't happen while in the Duel.

@@thomasbrug3210 That actually does get an answer in the books, but saying it would be spoiler haha. Short story is: It's a complex topic lmao.

Me neither! Have a good week!
@ Thanks, you too!
Don't forget to read Edgedancer after finishing WoR, it's Stormlight 2.5, same as Dawnshard after Oathbringer.
(Not so) little detail, book three is Oathbringer, not Oathbreaker.
I like your video a lot. Keep the good work.
Damn, I’ve referred to it as oath breaker in many videos lol
@@conorreads Honestly chalked it up to accent until this video.

Hmm that is very strange. I’ve never heard of that before
