    Funny thing is: the elves of Middle Earth might still see the Earth as being flat. When Arda was made round, the elves still maintained the ability to reach Aman by the "Straight Road" which nobody else could because of the curvature of the planet. This would also explain Legolas's insane vision when he can clearly discern people who are leagues away. And I guess that would mean elves and round planets can't coexist.

    Um, actually there are 2 other problems with the Mistborn question. First of all, aluminum is not an enhancement metal, quite the opposite as it takes away an allomancer's metals. Its alloy, duralumin, is an enhancement metal. Secondly, allomancers do not draw power from metals, they draw their power from Preservation, one of the gods of the Mistborn setting. The metals themselves are simply a catalyst for allomancy.

      The investiture originally came from both Preservation and Ruin but it was put into the metals at the beginning of the world and by burning that metal mistings and mistborn can access that investiture, so they get the investiture from the metals.

    Umm Actually, in mistborn burning a metal is not the same as digesting the metal, It is an entirely different process. When an allomancer burns a metal they can control the rate at which it burns, which you cannot do with digestion. Furthermore, they repeatedly say that allomancers should burn off all of their unused metals before sleeping as many of them have toxic properties if digested. This implies burning a metal prevents it from being processed by the body.

      @AbsolXGuardian 3 года назад +28

      Um actually Amidala is Padme's regnal name while Naberrie is her birth surname. All candidates for monarch run under assumed names so that no one can tell which (pressumably aristocratic) family they come from. That's also why Padme can go by her first name while pretending to be a handmaiden. Queen Amidala is the only name known to the public. However after her term ended, Padme chose to go by the name Padme Amidala in the senate, with Padme Amidala Naberrie as her rarely used full name. It's unclear what her legal name is. This is at least the case in the new eu.
      Also I don't know what Legends story gives Amidala as Leia's middle name, but it could actually be a double barreled surname, as automatically occurs in Naboo culture. So Padme naming Leia right before she dies would have conferred a surname in Naboo's custom.

    Um Actually, in the Harry Potter question you said that the act of taking a life is what lets the wizard hide a fragment of their soul, the author has not actually specified what goes into making a Horcrux, and while taking a life is probably involved we have no way to know for certain. The only Horcrux which we do know how it was made is a bit of an outlier because the 'death' that turned Harry into a Horcrux was that of Voldemort Himself.

    • @missmossie2010
      @missmossie2010 3 года назад +5

      Also, we do know that it involves more than just taking a life because the author said she wrote down the process for her editor and he threw up, so it wasn't fit for a children's book. So we do know that whatever the process, it is more complicated and much more horrible than just taking a life.

    Um actually, "Amidala" isn't exactly the Skywalker's mother name, it's more like "royal pseudonim" or crown name. To prevent nobles to capitalize on their families connection, rulers of Naboo were elected anonimously. I also can be wrong, but I believe that Padme called daughter just "Leia" in the movie,
    So "Amidala" as the middle name is either somebody else calling her this way to honor her mother, or some kind of noble naming tradition on Naboo.

      @hobojones112 3 года назад +1

      Aluminum is considered an "enhancement" metal alongside duralumin, chromium, and nicrosil. They're considered "enhancement" because they do not do anything on their own, they have to be paired with at least one other metal for them to have an effect. It's also not that the mistings won't know that they're magical, they just are basically useless. They can swallow the metal and still "burn" it, but nothing will happen. They'll know what the metal is they are ingesting and know that they are able to burn it unlike other metals but it won't have any actual effect since it has to be paired with another metal. This is why Aluminum Mistings are referred to as "Gnats". Source: coppermind.net/wiki/Allomancy#Allomantic_Metals

      @@camerontrivett1772 Ooh fun thanks for the reply friend.
      And you're definitely right it IS and enhancement metal, however, I never said that there can't be Aluminum Mistings, I just said that it is not a physical metal that provides any use for those mistings (i.e. yes they are mistings, but they cannot effectively do anything). Hope that helps clear up my intention!

    Um actually... (Mistborn spoilers),
    Mistings can burn two (or more) different types of metals with the help of a hemalurgic spike.

      Yes and no. Technically anyone can burn as many metals as they want through the use of hemalurgy so I feel like that wouldn't quite count here.

      @@hobojones112 Hemalurgy had a significantly different effect on the type of person who used it (inquisitor/mistborn, koloss, human, misting, kandra). Specifically for the mistings it allowed them to burn another metal which is directly related to the question. So I understand the argument, but I think it falls within the pedanticness of the show.
