Shards Changing Intents?? | Dragonsteel 2023 Words of Brandon Part 3

Shardcast: The Brandon Sanderson Podcast

We're back with more WoBs, and this time it's the last of the Dragonsteel 2023 Words of Brandon. Today we have a grab bag of a bunch of random stuff, like kandra babies, stabbing Hoid with atium, Harmony lying, and the IDENTITY FIELD returns. This episode we have Ian (WeiryWriter), Evgeni (Argent), and Grace (thegatorgirl). Our thumbnail today is a piece we commissioned from Ashley Coad (https://www.ashleycoadart.com/).
