He enjoys using the power. His story is about the struggle between who he is and who he wants to be and who he is taught to be. In regards to his powers he's more like adolin.
He enjoys being powerful then hates himself for that enjoyment.
He has opinions and rage but he tries to be passionless cause he thinks it's the right way.
He's just a small wet meow meow.
szeth is all like "I hate killing people. I hate myself for killing people. Why must I kill people all the time" and then every time he fights it's the most elaborate fight scene ever. There is ONE GUARD and he lashes him upwards, binds him to the ceiling, puts his own spear under him, and then waits for the lashing to run out so the guard falls down and is impaled. and every fight scene is like that. if you think murder is morally wrong why did you do that to him
Moash should be a shybreaker. (And not cause of justice is blind thing. His blindness should just be blindness. An injury not a punishment)
Teft was although a friend. Was an enemy combatant.
Yes he is vindictive. His greatest flaw is that he is gullible. He is loyal until he isn't.
And he seems to get betrayed by every ideal he swear.
But in the end. He didn't, as much got betrayed by people, as much as he got betrayed by the institution.
There was simply nothing he could do once the law was thrown out the window. And vengeance is just another face of justice.
So having him as a skybreaker who is devoted to an ideal and at the end becoming law itself seems a better arc. And having been on side of the vengeance he can judge better. And unlike nale, Moah isn't a machine. He wants to be but he isn't. He understands compassion and forgiveness.
He is one of my favorite characters. It would be interesting to see whom he chooses as his third ideal.
Alternatively.
He can be an awakened radiant (corrupted) As he is shunned by both human and singer. Seems like he would fit within the awakened truthwatchers. And purely cause it be funny. He hated renarin. Or hated the idea of him.
But renarin is such a sunshine boy if anyone can make moash see past his hateded its renarin.
He should not be dead. He should live and learn and grow and grow old.
Not as a cautionary tale but as a reminder that we can make better choices.
Hi so I stormlight archives books and I keep thinking about the skybreaker ideals.
I think the fourth ideal of the skybreakwrs would be about forgiveness. Realizing that law is not always perfect. That there needs to be interpretation on the side of one laying down the law.
So the fourth ideal could be like. 'I accept that law is not perfect.' And sezth forgives himself for all he has done. Not completely of course. It is a journey. And that's what the words are about. Taking the next step to healing.
It does follows the pattern.
The first ideal is the ideal to start. To try again. To recognize that there is journey.
Second ideal is duty. To protect those who cannot protect themselves.
&
Swearing to uphold the law
Third is the ideal of guidance : to protect even those one Hate as long as it is right.
&
To follow an external law
Now the forth ideal is the ideal of acceptance: I accept that there will be those I cannot protect.
And it is stated that skybreakers and wind runners are not that different.
It makes sense that the fourth ideal of skybreakers is acceptance that law is flawed and forgives himself.
And i think kaladin is going to the king of new hearelds. His eyes are of rage. of jezriene king of hearelds. Lets see.
