I hate Sadeas for so many reasons, he’s a storming evil man, he’s a Cremling, and yet he’s so much more complex than I remember, and I hate him and know how evil he is, and I hate how he’s not always wrong, I hate him because he’s such a strong evil, he does want the best for alethkar and elhokar, he misses his friendship with dalinar, he did something truly brave during gavilar’s assassination, he blames dalinar on a way that makes sense, and he’s still a vile evil cremling, he is well written this post is about how much I like Brandon Sanderson’s character writing, he wrote well enough for me to hate a man and hate how I sometimes see a glimmer of hope, I only have 3 cosmere books left to read (lost metal, yumi, and sunlit man) but when I go back to way of kings like I am now I still see a glimmer of hope in Sadeas
Dalinar meeting the Nightwatcher
I don't find much time lately for fanart, but this one just fitted my mood that day. It is based on an old sketch from 2021 which I never fully rendered.
everyone at dalinar: ewww you feel *negative emotions* at the thought of killing? you get nauseous when you end a life?? what an absolute loser lol the dementia is getting to him
Sometimes a family can be you, your wife that you forgot, your girlfriend who is also your dead brother's wife, her heretic daughter, your two sons, the one son's betrothed who's dad(not apart of the family) may or may not have been part of a plot to kill your heretic niece(now daughter????), your nephew(now son???????) Who just happens to be king of a nation, your honorary son who's kinship was bound by the blood of the battlefield, and his family of 20-1000 ex-bridgemen.
Dalinar at the kid’s table practicing baby’s first glyphs with his grandson great-nephew / adopted grandson.
Actually this came from torithedormouse on instagram, prompting me to sketch Dalinar stuck in chairs too small for his big frame, after a bit in chapter 44 of Oathbringer, which describes him sitting on a small stool and looking entirely too big for it.
After promising to be present on both a romantic date with Adolin as well as an important meeting with her fellow Radiants, Shallan must use her Lightweaving to appear in two places at once. While practicing Surgebinding with Szeth, Kaladin misuses Cohesion and the two have to learn to get through the day literally stuck together. Dalinar is banned from the tower's book club after his suggestion every week is always the way of kings.
