However, the "Lost" effect (making the mysteries so cool that no reveal can live up to them) is in the forefront of my mind. My feeling is that instead of dragging them eight books, I should be quick to give answers in future volumes. The things that span eight books as secrets shouldn't be the ones that you're wondering at in the first book; they should be the things that, after you begin wondering about them in the seventh book, you can look back to the first book and see the hints. Then you get your answers in the eighth.

'''@BrandSandersonatheistcanuck:''' The Almighty's original name was Tanavast, yes/no?

@atheistcanuck :Yes and no. The concept of the "Almighty" in Roshar has a lot of meanings, many of them wrong.

Brandon: Not quite. I'm trying to remember what the guesses were for the other Shard on Sel. I may have dismissed them too quickly.

Me'''@Chaos:''' How about Mercy for Aona, then? The guesses for Skai's Shard include Devotion, Obedience, and Order
@atheistcanuck Yes and no. The concept of the "Almighty" in Roshar has a lot of meanings, many of them wrong.
Brandon: Okay, I was right, then. Ha There's something very ironic in all of this.

Kerry has now tweeted him asking if Devotion is Aona's Shard. Like we got it all reversed.
