I would totally bond an Inkspren, what about you?

Reacher, all the way.
From the way they're rhythmic change from bright to dim is described, and the name, I suspect logicspren will form the basis of fabrial computers going forward.
That's a great theory!
Navani's lectures indicate they have made logic gates using metal cages and logicspren.
I'd never seen Navani's fabrial pages translated to english before. "PAIN KNIFE" sounds so hardcore, haha. I wonder if it's her equivelent of a tazer or pepper spray for Rosharian women? You keep in in your safepouch, press the button when an attacker is close and if it cuts him, the painspren in the fabrial augments his suffering without actually wounding him.
I think your right; it's definitely the Rosharan equivalent of a tazer!
The anxiety spren I fell look more twisty and intertwined more than just straight plus signs you showed. My favorite lesser spren
I think you're right! There is no fan art of them that I could find, so I had to make due.
@ExploringTheCosmere I actually got a tattoo of them with my own interpretation. I posted it on the cosmeretattoo subreddit a while back
Another masterpiece. I think if any of the orders, I'd be an Elsecaller and bond an Inkspren. The oaths make sense to me, and cool powers to boot!
Totally agree
Dope just what I needed at work. Definitely either a Highspern or a Inkspern
Glad I could make work a little more interesting for you haha
Great work.
Thank you!
The lesser spren can also form a nahel bond. Thats what makes greatshells possible. What makes the true spren different is the radiant bond, which is a special kind of nahel bond
That's a good point. We've seen luckspren bond with most greatshells, music spren likely bond with Ryshadium, and some type of unknown spren bonds with the Tai-na. I guess the Singers bonding spren to take on forms would be a Nahel bond then, too, right?
@@ExploringTheCosmere there is a quote from Brandon:
"Nahel bond" is the phrase used for a bond between a spren and a being from the Physical Realm. That is the definition of it. [...] . It's how greatshells exist and grow to the size they do. It's how Ryshadium exist. Those are Nahel bonds also." he does not talk about singer forms here. in the coppermind articel about singers there is written "They are native Rosharan lifeforms characterized by [...] and the presence of a gemheart they can use to create symbiotic bonds with spren, ...." So I guess it would be a type of nahel bond. I could not find a WoB speaking against this or giving the provess a special name.
@@ExploringTheCosmere ah I found a good quote from Brandon: ""Nahel bond" is the phrase used for a bond between a spren and a being from the Physical Realm. That is the definition of it. [....]
You could find a Nahel bond... In fact, many would call the bond between the singers and the spren that give them forms Nahel bonds. It may not fit fully into the categorization that most people would use it for, but you could kinda call that the same thing." it is from the RUclips Livestream 23 (Dec. 17, 2020)
What would a singer be able to do if they bonded a fire spren? Or what armor could be created from fire spren?
I feel like ten books might not be enough to completely show all the cool shit he could do with spren and their bonds.
That would be a great question to ask Brandon, "Can Singers bond any type of spren?" I'm going to guess that they can't because it seems like it's difficult for them to discover new forms. I agree, it would be cool to see novellas set on Roshar that don't have anything to do with the main story, instead focusing on worldbuilding.
This was really helpful. Thank you. I'll choose to bond an Inkspren if one will have me!
Glad it was helpful! Inkspren are my favorite too!
I wonder if Sanderson watched or read Mushi-shi. They remind me a lot of that manga, especially the Mushi's and Spren's ambiguous and wondrous behavior that goes beyond words a connection between nature and intelligence which i always liked in any form of media.
I had never heard of Mushi-shi before your comment. I watched a few episodes, and there are definitely similarities between mushi and spren!
Great video thank you! I would love a deep dive of the Harold’s I’m on my 4th reread and I still get each one confused
Glad you liked it. I added your topic suggestion to my list of future topics, it sounds like a fun video to make!
BTW, 4th reread is impressive! I've only read Stormlight twice so far haha
What an amazing video! Spren are probably my favorite thing about the Cosmere they make Roshar feel so vibrant and alive.
Glad you liked it! I agree, spren are an amazing part of Roshar
I wonder if it would be possible to form a Nahel bond with Sja Anat.
I would definitely want to bond a cryptic. I'm not that artistic but I think I could make as a lightweaver, so long as I get to bond a cryptic.
We were so close to greatness....
1 away.
Which one? Rockspren? Sailorspren?
@@ExploringTheCosmereIdk but they just wanted the funny sex number
Oh duh, went over my head
I would bond with a cultivation spren or honor spren, it would probably depend on which type found me the most interesting
Either edgedancer or Windrunner
Spren are basically Pokémon.
I think being an elsecaller would fit me:)
Same! Inkspren all the way 😄
You couldve talked more about the corrupted spren and how their looks differ from their normal counterparts, probably not enough info for its own video though?
That's true! I think I'll talk about them if I ever make an Unmade video
And this is why I am not confident in any live action adaptation of Stormlight.
I think a Crytic would make sense for me but I’m not a Lightweaver
Cryptics are cool. I think I would want one like Design, she's so quirky lol
Isn’t syl’s dad is the storm father? So does the nightwachter (kind of the storm father’s sister is the night watcher) hunt’s gloom spren?
well noticed
Nice theory. In the full quote where Syl talks about her aunt hunting gloomspren, she says that she isn't really her aunt, just an honorspren she refers to that way.
Personally I'd like to bond with an Honorspren or Peakspren.
Truthwatcher here. My buddy is a mistspren. I can never tell if she likes my jokes…
I'm not a visual reader, I NEED art. This video is blowing my mind. It's making want to read the books again. The only spren I was close to what they really looked like was the gate spren and honor spren
I'm glad you found it helpful! With so many different kinds of spren, it's definitely difficult to visualize them all
