Distracted thinking about the story, Pattern failed to notice Re-Shephir, who had hidden amongst Shallan's illusionary audience. 4) Ghostbloods are interested in Mishram. He says his real name is a series of numbers and agrees to Pattern as being sufficient enough a name.[1]. He calls these things lies, but not in a disparaging way but rather admiringly, as if he is fond of lies. Pattern acting like a new spren that was just pulled into the CR. Spoilers all the way through Rhythm of War. Pattern watched over the conversation silently as the women discussed Urithiru, the Shattered Plains and the Voidbringers. [1]. Shallan stared into that light. Even still we don't know enough about how "dead" spren work to make a call either way. And she uses both at various times in WoR. The light behind the painting was not lightweaving. Well, a religious group would still count as a group, Shallan's Mother? Many spren aren't that mature and I worry about what other secrets might be given away accidentally by a spren who's too trusting. Your truth is what you see. Tyn, who had been hired by the Ghostbloods to assassinate the Alethi princess, attacked Shallan when she learned of her identity, with the intention to kill her. But the only fight before that scene is Kaladin fighting to protect Cenn and it only describes him as fighting like the wind. Within the message sent by Tyn's associates, relayed via a communication station in Tashikk, was information about the attack on Jasnah and the Wind's Pleasure. Unfortunately for the pair, this meant that Pattern could not unlock the room containing the food, forcing them to find another way into the room. It's easy! Still dont love it, but there was some foreshadowing to it (specifically Shallan saying that Patterns voice was not what she heard when she first Soulcasts), but I think there needs a lot more explanation for me to be fully onboard. [36], In the chasms, Kaladin used Pattern in his blade form to fight the chasmfiend and allow Shallan the opportunity to escape. [49][50], He came at me, in the training rooms, screaming that youd found the killer. I was thinking about this recently. Shallan had been right to be cautious, and her decision to hide and wait had saved her life. As he does so, Pattern seems to be a scholarly and excitable spren, exulting in finding truths, lies, and understanding new concepts. I will update this post if it turns out anything I've said is inaccurate. When Adolin left to retrieve the Blade guards, she created a new persona, that of Brightness Radiant, who would be able to handle constant use of her Patternblade. Pattern followed the men as they gave chase to Shallan's illusion which escaped past them and moved onto the deck of the ship before jumping overboard. [3], Still, Pattern's complex repetitions twist down into infinity. It was published by Tor Books on November 17, 2020. Though he stayed silent during the meeting with the Highprince's, Shallan found herself having to quiet him during her ride to Sebarial's camp, to prevent him being noticed by the Highprince. Jasnah tasked Shallan to study her spren, pointing out that she was likely the first person in centuries that had the opportunity to interact and learn from the Cryptics. But I do agree that it was Testament blade that killed Tyn. It's thus very heavily implied that he has betrayed the heralds, and may have been working for Odium for quite some time. That is what those memories would do to me. Here's a quote from Shallan telling Pattern that the Blade just disappeared as soon as the safe was closed: "Father took you from me," Shallan said, "and tried to hide you in here. She "lightweaves" things that aren't there. 1. Although Shallan believed that she bonded Pattern as a child the pair did not form a Nahel bond until at least after her mother's death.

Remember too that Jasnah had heard of Shallan's mother and that there is a WoB that Shallan's mother was a person of some importance. This page was last edited on 12 December 2022, at 19:18. She refers to the blade asPattern. She was determined to find the Oathgate, however she had doubts as to whether she would be enough of a Radiant to be able to operate it. Learn again if you have to. We also need to remember thatsomeonetold Mraize that Shallan had seen a corrupted gloryspren. This Dreder came to the house to help confront her father about Shallan. Its tiny lines twisted and turned through its mass, somehow lifting the surface of the wood, like iron scrollwork under a taut tablecloth. Few characters in the history of DC Comics have been more irredeemable than Terra from the Teen Titans. Especially until part 4 when this is explained. Further, he feels he can tell Pattern from other Cryptics because there is a spring to Patterns step; he bounces when certain other Cryptics glide.[5]. Anddoes she need three truth before she gets herarmor? why did pattern betray shallan . She noticed Shallan's powers and tried to kill her to push her over the edge to become a Radiant. I don't think I could have taken it if Pattern's goal had truly been to betray Shallan. Oathbringer does not scream when he is held by dalinarin Oathbringer (this gets confusing fast), instead it was a small wimpier. [51][52], Within the now empty library rooms, Pattern could sense the memories contained within the hidden gem archive. Unlike her previous ventures into the Cognitive, Shallan was able to hover between the Realms instead of falling through and becoming trapped amongst the sea of spheres. While Shallan bathed, Pattern spied on Dalinar and Navani, who were discussing the map Shallan had created of the chasms and whether she should stay in the warcamps when the army set out onto the Plains. Shallan has always been an unreliable narrator and prone to creative delusions. Without Honor to regulate this, there is a small chance that what comes next will allow the Voidbringers to again make the jump between worlds. [6][29], After the meeting, Pattern continued to watch to see if Shallan was being followed, and spotted Iyatil tailing the young Lightweaver. Don't have WoK currently, but I remember Cenn commenting of seeing some blue or a spern near Kal during the fight. In WoR, when Shallan kills Tyn, she summons a shardblade. "Thats what you said. After entering the house and making their way upstairs, Pattern unlocked the door to Amaram's secret room and stood watch while Shallan investigated. It would also make sense that breaking the bond would be very similar to doing so with an already dead Shardblade, which seems to require the person to physically summon the Shardbladebeforebreaking the bond. [29], A week later, Pattern decoded a few phrases of Dawnchant while studying with Shallan. Even Jasnah and Dalinar leaving and fighting the battle was part of that--those scenes are short and serve to show that there is no outside help coming to Urithuru (they do more than just that, of course, but that's a major reason for including them where they are in the novel). "One is almost certainly a traitor to the others.". I think her being a ghostblood makes the most sense. Patternis the name Shallan gives to the Cryptic spren with whom she bonds. Join the revel. Not reliable. Pattern fled, losing her when she returned to help Kaladin during the fight. . [57], During the robbery of Nananav, Pattern distracted a pair of guards with Lightwoven sound, while Shallan and Vathah snuck upstairs. He wasn't thinking clearly. I'm still not quite 100% sure there was no spy, but I think it's plausible that Mraize was making an educated guess, knowing that he didn't send any additional agents (or maybe he did, and that person saw Radiant do it). "The lies that drew me." Blood spilled on the carpet. As to her friend no idea? [32], After meeting the Ghostbloods to deliver the information found in Amaram's mansion, Shallan hid inside a Lightwoven boulder, to avoid being followed. Don't remember any instance of her seeing something that was not there. "You were talking about mating! However, because he is half-Riran, his skin tone is lighter than his fathers.

The stick refused and Shallan and Pattern slipped back into the Physical Realm. I think Shallan's mom was affiliated with the Skybreakers. However, her train of thought only confused him. Thought this was clear from the book: Pattern told Witabout the corrupted Spren and Mraize learned about it because he was spyingon Jasnah+Wit. Did he know she wasn't ready for the whole truth? Their minds break. From everything I know about DID, Shallan absolutely does not fit that disorder category at all. Following Adolin's lead, Pattern and Syl imitated the Lightwoven people, slashing randomly at the space around them. She tried to explain to Pattern that she didn't hate him, she hated the sword and what it represented. That his kind are too static. [14] She has not yet stated enough truths to be a full Radiant but their bond has strengthened enough for Pattern to become a Shardblade when needed. The father was probably more loyal to Shallan than the ghostbloods considering he didn't tell them about her abilities. Mraize told Shallan he has someone close to her, and I don't think he lied. [58], To escape Kharat during her visit to the Cult of Moments, Shallan had Pattern imitate Ashertmarn's whispers, creating an opening for her to slip away and explore. I think Mraize is just blowing smoke, trying to keep Shallan on edge to keep her going along with his plans. Shallan explained she had fallen into the trap of seeing Jasnah's research as a theoretical puzzle that needed to be solved, ignoring the real world ramifications that could occur if they were to fail. I think Ishar is lying. My initial assumption was that Shallan's mother thought she was a voidbinder. Pattern is a spren on Roshar. Shallan, realizing that there was another space beyond the wall, summoned Pattern as a blade and to cut through the wall to discover a dark passage down into the depths of Urithiru. He is a member of the race of spren called the Cryptics. Shallan played along, pretending that she was unaware of Pattern's presence and shortly after the soldier stormed away. Pattern denied being related to the Voidbringers, and urged Shallan to hurry in her search as he could sense the changes being brought by the Listener's song. By the end of Words of Radiance, Adolin is 25 years old. This probably underlies why he doesn't retain Stormlight well. [2] Shallan started calling him "Pattern" while she was studying him upon Jasnah's orders. Only later did Vin learn that Reen had not left: he had been captured by a Steel Inquisitor and died insisting she had starved to death years earlier, even under torture. He used the box to speak to Wit without telling her that he was doing so, and was willing to lie about it. Pattern explained that he had come to the understanding that he could not hate Adolin for having a blade, as humans, he concluded, did not care about the dead. In exchange for their protection and help against the bandits, she promised to absolve them of their debts once they had reached the Shattered Plains. Moving on, After getting no answer from a crew member of Honor's Path the group returned to the registrar's office. For a while I really was in denial and kept hope that there had to be another catch or something like that. Only cracked. Does Shallan betray Jasnah?

However, Shallan lost it to the ocean during the sinking of the Winds Pleasure. There is a chance we might end the cycle of Desolations.". [3], When Shallan sees Pattern in Shadesmar, he is in the form of one of the symbolhead figures (i.e., a Cryptic) that she had seen in earlier visions. Can we talk about how ridiculous it is to think that killing the only people who can fight the void bringers would be helpful. Shallan had used her mnemonic ability to assist her drawing, and the presence of the Cryptics were somehow included in the Memory. Which is going to result in Shallan being a sleeper agent kicking off a major event in book 5. At the moment of the quote she didn't admit to herself she killed a blade. This buzzing sound tends to unnerve people, especially those unaware of where the noise is coming from. Possibly the best ever representation of Pattern is here. I'm willing to believe it was Pattern's blade that killed Tyn. You went to all this trouble to seed the information and find the spy. But the truth . Who is shallans mother? About what I can do, and what we have done. Pattern was present for most of Shallans childhood. "But" said the male initiate. The men did not understand that it had been Pattern speaking to them, though Shallan later confirmed his existence, however they still obeyed, attacking Tyn's soldiers who blocked their way. She hadn't had bonded to Pattern at that time. Privacy Policy. Pattern's childlike behaviour and lack of intelligence disappointed the women though Jasnah suggested that he simply needed more time to regain his mind. I'm not clear about his motives, but I'm worried. [67][68], Escaping Celebrant aboard Honor's Path, Pattern and his companions were locked away by the honorspren during the first week of their journey. I know we're talking about RoW in the thread, but offhand I'm not sure how much this theory touches on other Cosmere spoilers so I'm prefacing my spoiler tag :), There's a popular theory that Shallan's mother is Chanarach. . Or it could indicate that Shallan is crazy. [6] Pattern is unable to turn completely invisible like honorspren, but he can blend in with the surface he currently inhabits such that only people who are looking for him will notice his presence. Nalan's little group of psychopathic Judge Judy's dont really seem likely either, its possible but I very much doubt that Nalan would not be there himself. was he truly that loyal to her? [9], Pattern and Shallan survived the sinking ship, and Shallan was carried ashore by the Santhid she had seen several days prior. Huge spoilery theory thread that started in 2020 & has been consolidated & is being actively updated: https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/95749-theory-taln-wasnt-the-herald-who-broke-it-was-chanarach/, I think the shining soul might have been the shardblade? Dictates of custom require following certain patterns before you copulate. Lets just say that Lightweavers fascinate me, and leave it at that. This one has been explained but I wasnt overall happy with it - Testamant should have appeared during Oathbringer Shadesmar trip. Pattern and his associates followed Shallan to her room within the guest quarters, where she attempted summoning her Shardblade to protect herself, then unintentionally Soulcast a goblet into blood, and masked the act by slicing open her arm. But as Testament was not a blade when shallan broke her oath therewould not be a blade. I mean, after all, Syl says in Words of Radiance thats how they all were, silly to Kaladins complaint that he was broken. If she'd killed Testament earlier, she would know. the timings dont make sense on Shallans powers. "I once thought as you,but Ishar made the truth clear to me. But Ill need to reread the series to see how wrong I am. So, it's pretty clearthat Ishar was blatantly lying to Nale about being able to stop the desolation by just going around slaughtering surgebinders left and right.

After confronting Iyatil, who had been watching the tree, Shallan travelled with the woman to Dalinar's warcamp, having Pattern distract Iyatil, while she gained them access. Why her mother freaked out? And later we get the conversation between Pattern and Shallan where Pattern is 100% convinced that some day Shallan will kill him. After several hours the illusion disintegrated and the pair headed back to the warcamps. [7], When it became apparent that Tyn would not allow Shallan to get away, Pattern hastened to find Vathah to bring him and his men to Shallan's aid.

When she tried to hide in her room, Pattern pushed her to summon him as a Shardblade, however Shallan refused instead creating an illusion of herself with Pattern's help. Pattern calmly interceded, hidden on the back of Vathah's uniform so as to fool the man into thinking he was hearing voices. Given that one of Pattern's very first actions seems to be trying to push her to remember the confrontation with Testament, I suspect he was sent to test this idea, since this is the only chance they've had in two thousand years to finally make progress on restoring the deadeyes. [24][25], Eventually, the storm passed and Shallan met with Tyn to learn what she could of her homeland.

This might not be the case for knights bonding to the blade of a spren they killed. When she went to see what had happened she accidentally drew the attention of several assassins after she witnessed one of them stab Jasnah through the chest. That can explain why the blade was in the strongbox for so long. I won't say it's impossible, but I will say that Shallan's mother attempting to kill her because Shallan was Radiant is more likely than the opposite, given the information we have. And if you count an Unmade being there as being corrupted there was an Unmade in the Davar household. Community Software by Invision Power Services, Inc.

He did feelwierd this entire book though and I noticed his absence way before Shallan started suspected him. [23], *That Shardblade was Testament, Shallan's first Cryptic. He says his real name is a series of numbers and agrees to Pattern as being sufficient enough a name. With regard to his sarcasm, Pattern states "Insults in particular will be of great use to my people, as they are truths and lies combined in a quite interesting manner." He remembered little of the creature, but knew it had been of Odium. Your email address will not be published. ", "It is the lies that save you," Pattern said.
