Idk. I know a lot about the Cosmere already, even though I’ve only read Mistborn era 1 and Stormlight. I don’t know any plot details about Warbreaker or Elantris, but I know some other details about them.

📚 Appreciator of BooksI think it has a Mistborn novella, so idk what else it would be.

📚 Appreciator of BooksThat’s fair, though if your already deep in Stormlight and Mistborn, why not read the others?
He is perfect in Justice, yet He is perfect in Mercy, even when we fail Him. For this, He is good.
When you say “the others” do you mean WaW and the Stormlight novellas, or other Cosmere books like Warbreaker and Elantris?
The reason I haven’t read WaW is mainly because until recently I was reading Stormlight, and the reason I haven’t read Edgedancer or Dawnshard is because I don’t have them lol.
I haven’t read Elantris because I don’t have it, and I haven’t read WB because I just haven’t really gotten into it.

📚 Appreciator of BooksI mostly meant the other series, but the Novellas to. Fair enough, but you still mean to get around to other Cosmere?

Definitely! I think I’m just kind of invested in Stormlight right now, so it will be hard for me to go to something else until I read KoWT.

📚 Appreciator of BooksThat’s fair, I’ve just come to accept it, seeing it as one big story where I’m switching perspectives constantly, but it can be frustrating when it comes to being invested with particular characters, especially when series like Stormlight already switch perspectives constantly.

Oh, I love your signature by the way, that might as well be my moto🤣

Thanks! I think it’s more true than the original quote lol!

📚 Appreciator of BooksYeah, though I think it’s really a matter of relative ignorance vs knowledge. If you don’t know enough about something, like something sufficiently advanced to the point you don’t understand it, it might as well be magic, by some definitions, it literally is magic to you, but something like a “magic system” that is sufficiently explained, so the audience understands it logically, then it really isn’t all that magical is it, it might as well be science. Of course, this depends on your definitions of things like magic, and this definition makes things very subjective, and it can be then argued that magic is a completely meaningless term, simply talking about how much the readers are supposed to understand, but I’m a descriptivist, so I allow definitions to waver through time.

It could be 0.5, The Eleventh Metal.
Any noun can become a verb if you don't care enough.
Oh yeah.

📚 Appreciator of BooksSo going back to Celestiar, do you have any character or story ideas, setting of any of the particular worlds, ect?

Yes. I have quite a lot. I have…four(?)…planet ideas so far I think.
Adonial is the planet that my main project takes place on. It is the most generic, with a medieval theme and dragons and stuff. I have the most decided on for this one. I might post some of it later. This one doesn’t have a well-developed magic system yet, because I created it before I was in to that sort of thing.
Ildin is another planet. It is far enough from its sun that the surface freezes and is uninhabitable. Fortunately, there are gigantic caves, which are warm enough to support humans due to the planet’s super hot core. This planet will have my Crystal Binding magic system.
Oldonar will be home to Metal Bonding, but I don’t have any other ideas for if yet.
Razath will be an apocalyptic wasteland of a planet. I’m currently working on this one’s magic system.
That’s what I can think of off the top of my head. I can share some more details later.

📚 Appreciator of BooksCool! Is there anything of note with your dragons? The dragon card can get duller and duller, but everyone still loves it because it’s… well… dragons. I’m no exception to this, but I still think that there’s got to be more interesting things one can do with the concept of dragons in terms of worldbuilding.
