I don't feel like Adolin being pissed at his dad is enough to turn him into Odium's champion, especially with Adolin already having a little revelation that his anger is warping his perspective when Yanagawn thanks Dalinar for setting up the contest and giving the coalition a chance at victory at all. After reading today's released chapters, I could see it happening if Adolin is somehow offered a deal by Odium to save Azimir and believes that his father will be able to kill him for the greater good. But it'd take some very deft writing to make that feel satisfying for me.

#wind and truth spoilers #the stormlight archive spoilers #adolin kholin #i also hope brando sando is like #a good enough writer to not kill adolin just for shock value #or to free shallan to worldhop #for me those boil down to 'this character is disposable because he doesn't have supernatural powers and everyone else does'#I could see an elhokar-death-scene subversion where adolin almost dies but it revives maya fully and he speaks the 1st ideal tho #she was so responsive in the cognitive realm chapters & he manifested her blade form to chat as well #something's gonna happen there
