Days Nine & Ten of reading Wind and Truth...
I didn't have a chance to read much these last 2 days - exams sure are annoying. Managed to get through 86 pages over the 2 days (VERY below average lmao, hoping to make up for it tonight). I am now on page 957, 67% of the way through the entire book (just over 2/3 done!), just into chapter 89 (Day Eight territory now...)
MORE VISIONS! THE MAIN WINDRUNNER WAS ROMANTICALLY INVOLVED WITH ONE OF THE SINGERS!! Ba-Ado-Mishram wanted peace... and was imprisoned by the Bondsmith. Makes a LOT of sense why she seems to hold such a strong grudge against humans. And now Dalinar is properly confronting his younger self.
The battle for Azimir still rages... the thunderclast did a lot of damage (rest in... many pieces, Neziham). The dome was broken. The fortifications were failing. AND THEN ASH AND TALN! Also Adolin is an amputee now. Definitely is gonna take him some time to get used to, but if anyone can bounce back, it's him.
Szeth's flashbacks are close to a climax - I'm really interested to see who (or what?) is behind the Voice he heard before he became Truthless. I have suspicions it could be one of the Unmade... that would explain why Shinovar currently is corrupted (the Unmade thag was previouslt resident has now returned).
Rlainarin. Need I say more? Shallan watching them whilst jumping up and down and squealing was such a funny moment, I'm so annoyed it got cut off though.
There is a glimmer of hope for Nale now... Kaladin's therapy could work, if Nale isn't so stubborn. Like Kaladin picked up on, his madness seems to have manifested in the form of "I do not believe in my own capacity to make decisions, so I will follow the law to the letter so that I do not have to decide what is right and wrong". ALSO 12124 WANTS HELP! A highspren showing humility was NOT on my bingo card for WaT lol
Lift and Zahel has so much potential. This is gonna be a funny combo - Zahel with the off-world cursing and wisdom beyond most people on Roshar, and Lift begrudgingly beginning to acknowledge that she is growing up and maturing... ALSO LIFT BESTED A FULL FERUCHEMIST??? HELLO???
That's it for days nine & ten! Tomorrow is my last 2 exams, but then I'm going on a camping trip & expedition for a couple of days, so after tomorrow I will probably pause my read of Wind and Truth til I get back, unless I have room for it in my rucksack (which is unlikely).
I hope you've been enjoying my read-along :)
