    • @austinblades8903
      @austinblades8903 Год назад +23

      its heavily implied in the way of kings that that's exactly what was happening. kal was infusing the bridge with light causing the arrows to be attracted to it and thus avoiding him. he just didn't realize he was doing it. it's even mentioned I think that Kaladin would return from bridge runs and find all his spheres would be dun despite just being recently infused.

      I don't think it's 100% accurate--TWoK describes it having grooves for the bridgemen, and Bridge Four's side carry maneuver never would have worked to block arrows with all that open space between the spokes in the animation. But otherwise I'd say it gets the general idea.

Either way, fantastic job!
