#tbh i originally thought all the heralds would DIE by book 5 but shalash is like. the one pov character im certain will last until her book

Do you have any Stormlight 5 predictions you think for sure will be in the book? For me I am convinced that Dalinar will lose the duel due to refusing to kill the baby/child that odium makes his champion, also kaladin will become the new radiant ruler

i LOVE that we are all united in the idea that dalinar is gonna get his ass kicked cause there's no way they win that duel!!!!! my theories are still percolating, i kinda want to reassess with the entirety of mistborn era 2 in mind but right now my big end of arc 1 predictions are:

the ten day duel lasts the first half of the book

the oathpact is reformed, someone get braized. probably dalinar if losing the duel doesnt kill him

szeth dies. sorry. i love him but i think this is it.

chana shows up/the chanarach davar theory will be explicitly confirmed or denied. i feel like every herald should be accounted for by this book

there's another thaidakar scare (after the prologue) that suggests they figured out how to get stormlight off world. either this or we get an answer as to how hoid suspended his nahel bond with design to get to scadrial

adolin figures out how to restore maya and it has something to do with the sibling

i dont want to make any predictions abt kaladin cause im scared
