Difference between revisions of "Nightwatcher"

Contrary to popular belief, it is not possible to avoid the curse by carefully phrasing a request--or even to predict the curse that the Nightwatcher will bestow. Interestingly, it does not appear that balance is carefully maintained through an individual blessing and curse--often, highly visible curses are the result of relatively minor boons. The curses can be quite thorough, however--[[Dalinar]] lost all memory of his wife, and cannot even focus when her name is mentioned in conversation. In another case, a man lost all feeling in both of his hands until the day he died. Whether these curses follow some cosmic justice, or are merely the result of a capricious spren, is unknown, as is the true nature of the Nightwatcher.
