Everything he did, he did for his Grisha. It really did all come back to them.

What if Wylan and Jesper were both Grisha in the second army?

Jes probably refuses to wear his Kefta right and Wy probably likes to experiment too much.

Is this just my excuse to have drawn an Alkemi Kefta for Wy and think of how badass a fully trained Jesper would be still gunslinging about? Yes. yes it it.

so an alkemi is given parem, do you think they could potentially reverse the affects of it? Like because they're already on it, they could remove the drug from their body before it truly runs it's course and causes their lives to be fuck-all?

I’ve been reading some grishaverse meta/worldbuilding posts lately and now I’ve got to let my thoughts out:

Ravka should have the best fricking R&D department in the world. Why? Because they have whole orders that can manipulate the building blocks of the universe! And, coming from a more rural community, my first thought went to agricultural development.

Ravka should not be starving right now. In fact, they should be exporting food products to Kerch for profit. Again, why? Because they have people that can literally manipulate matter. Plant genetics? That’s a walk in the park for Durasts and Alkemi! (Anyone else remember the monk and his pea plants from biology 101 in school?) What literally took people generations to carefully learn and cultivate, Durasts and Alkemi could do in a matter of weeks or less.

I mean, imagine having the power to take the best crops and make them even better. Cold resistance, drought resistance, blight/rot/bug resistance. Poison-free pest control. Quicker growing times, larger yields, longer yield times, better flavor and higher quality. This could be a game changer for a country in desperate need of a way to make some money! And Kerch is right there, and seems to be completely urban with no large agricultural means. I’m willing to bet they have to import a lot of food, and Ravka could be the one to provide it.

Now, there is the problem of growing seasons. After all, you can’t grow things all year round can you? Actually you can with greenhouses. In our world this might not always work because these buildings are outside and are affected by the weather. The beauty of working with a fictional world like the grishaverse is the magic powers some of its people are granted.

I remember seeing a post where someone mentioned that, in the books, a grisha (squaller?) was in charge of maintaining the moisture content in a room of old books. Using that info you could make a team of Squallers, Tidemakers, and Inferni to keep these greenhouses warm and working 24/7, even in the middle of winter! Hearty, healthy food for your troops and the starving people, plus a desired export to bring in money from other nations.

I just don’t understand how LB creates something with so much potential and just does. nothing. with. it.🤦‍♀️ Oh well, her non-creativity is our creativeness? So yeah, word dump that’s kind of a mess of random thoughts. Enjoy!
