I'm Really Proud Of The Horse Here

Happy Neil Day to those who celebrate 🎹🐀

Less magic schools. More magic universities. Unlearn the simplified models of your secondary education. Discover how to reference scrolls written by a wizard possessed by a different wizard. Identify bias in the voices that whisper from beyond the veil. Have your institution be accused of promoting a Merlinist agenda. Become addicted to energy potions.

Guess who wrote their first Stormlight fic 🕺

What the storm did you do, you cremling son of a chull? I'll have you know I graduated at top of my class in the Windrunner Initiates. I have been involved in numerous secret campaigns against the Parshendi, and I have over 300 confirmed shards. I am trained in bridge-running and I am the top Windrunner in the entire Alethi military. You are nothing to me but another target. I will wipe you out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on Roshar, mark my words.

liar, liar, liar

The old Alethi tradition of bringing your own chair to the meeting.

Sanderson is a really big fan of magic that sounds fun but then is secretly hella dark and probably has to do with killing souls.

Hey look this magic lets you see pretty colors and hear music better and animate corpses. How'd you get that magic? Oh I ate someone's soul. Don't worry they're fine, they just can't experience beauty anymore.

Look Look eat the metal and you can do cool stuff like yeet yourself in the air or run super fast. Eat the metal and you can become superman.

Or alternatively, you could STAB someone with the metal and STEAL THEIR SOUL! They will be very dead and it will be very messy. But look you have magical powers plus cool new jewelry

Here on Roshar you get magical powers, a built-in best friend/therapist, and a kick ass sword. But if you fuck up at all that new friend of yours will die and you will personally be responsible for killing a tiny part of god. Have fun!
