Adventures in Mongolia & Goat’s Head Soup: Steven Erikson’s Notes on a Crisis

It’s axiomatic that the things one could do in youth (with that natural aplomb that comes with a conviction of personal invulnerability) do not happily extend into that period of middle age where desire and capacity no longer meet.

Adonalsium - The Coppermind - 17th Shard

Adonalsium is a mysterious term used in the cosmere , which could refer to the power of Creation or a god. It has not been revealed what Adonalsium explicitly is, but its power is seen in the Shards of Adonalsium, which act as imperfect gods in the cosmere. It is heavily implied there are sixteen Shards, but this has not been explicitly confirmed. [1] Hoid has been confirmed to be there when Adonalsium Shattered . [ edit ] Shards of Adonalsium

Cosmere - The Coppermind - 17th Shard

The cosmere is a distinct universe totally separate from our own, [1] in which several of Brandon Sanderson 's epic fantasy books take place. [ edit ] Overview As the cosmere implies a simultaneaous existence of the ten Shardworlds (planets with mentionable Shardic Influence), cosmere books are connected by an overarching story. Once there was the mysterious power Adonalsium , whose true characteristic is still unknown.
