They literally turned tensoon into a marketable plushie
Stormlight Archive brain mush. SPOILER THOUGHTS.
Can we talk about Kaladin "I had nine carefree days after going off the deep end and trying very hard to kill myself before deciding to sacrifice myself to save all the spren with my fingers crossed that the Wind and insane as fuck Ishar had a plan for it to not result in my eternal torture" Stormblessed??? That boy is not right in the head. And not because he suffers from PTSD and depression, but bc he thinks nine days of sorta fun is enough for him to know anything about self care.
That poor sweet (not?) gloomy asshole.
With his most recent skill developments, Kaladin would make for an absolutely incredible Soulcaster. He would simply therapize the Stick into realizing that deep down in its wooden heart it wants to be Fire. Shallan could never.
Looking back at Wind and Truth, I'm really glad I didn't reread any of the previous Stormlight books since Branderson had graciously decided to send half of the characters to the fucking Flashback Realm™️ so that you are essentially forced to reread all of the important scenes anyways...
The best part about reading a Brandon Sanderson book is that every time you read it around someone else they are obligated to say some form of “wow! Big book!” and it brings back gifted kid™ emotions i haven’t felt since the accident
adolin getting a longer hug from kaladin than shallan is one of the most throwaway comments brando sando could have made, and he did, for no reason, unrelevant to the story, just for us. my heart is warm.
Momokarun dump
I don’t care how many times Brandon Sanderson describes this man with hair covering his scars. I just can’t imagine Kaladin with bangs 💀💀
(Also I have a few more character designs ready to post in the next couple of days. So follow for more!)
fave thing is when people draw kaladin with perfect hair. curtain bangs and face framing layers and the perfect blowout. captain handsome reporting for duty always. herald of kings, wind, second chances, and fresh blowouts.
WIP of the Oathpact reforged scene, I’m so unwell about it honestly.
EDIT - Finished artwork here.
