Interview: Jan 19th, 2015
Question
If Allomancy works once the planet is left, does that mean that the FTL travel will have the vessels carrying a portable Shard? How will the energy of that Shard affect things where they travel to?Brandon Sanderson
You’re just going to have to get a real RAFO on that one, ‘cause that book is a long ways away.Tags

Question
Are you still planning on doing /Mistborn/ in Space, because that would be awesome.Brandon Sanderson
Am I still planning on doing /Mistborn/ in Space. Yes I am… /Mistborn/ was originally pitched to my editor-- I pitched it as a trilogy of trilogies--I’ve obviously gone off track on that on that--but I was going to do an epic fantasy, a 1980’s level kind of contemporary, and science fiction all in the same world. /Alloy of Law/, I really fell in love with that time period for some things I was doing and I was like “I’m going to write FOUR BOOKS HERE” So there’s now 13 planned. Who knows if I’ll add more and things like that.Tags

Question
Do you have a plan for the entire concept of the cosmere?Brandon Sanderson
Yes I do.Question
Do you have an Allomancy dude fighting a Surgebinding dude?Brandon Sanderson
Oh yeah it’s going to be cool. It’s going to be super awesome. The Allomantic space battles are really great. It’s going to be like 15 years, sorry. But they are really cool.Tags

Is there- have you come up with a Realmatic explanation for why light isn't affected by time bubbles besides handwavium "please don't burn people with microwaves"?Brandon Sanderson
Peter's got one for us. 'Cause we were going to do redshift: like the actual original writing for it had redshifts; Peter's like "Dude, you will microwave everybody" I'm like "Oh man". So the handwavium of that: there is a real- there is an actual explanation, but it… [moves to outside the storeBrandon Sanderson
What's the middle of this question?Kurkistan
Middle of the question was you were thinking about explaining the Realmatics behind light for time bubbles.Brandon Sanderson
Oh right, right right right right. I can't because it spoils future books; like that's spoiler for Mistborn... 10?Kurkistan/Argent
*laughter*Brandon Sanderson
So... if you count the four Alloys, so really gotta stay away from stuff like that.Kurkistan/Argent
That's fair/fine.Tags

Interview: Oct 12th, 2015
Question
This is more of a nitty-gritty question about Allomancy, in particular cadmium. Would it function if it were affixed to a body smaller than a planet with its own source of gravity?Brandon Sanderson
What do you mean by work [function]?Question
Like a spacecraft. My thinking is that it could be used on long space voyages, because you’ve said that you're going to eventually progress into the Space age--Brandon Sanderson
So are you asking if we can use that as cryogenics?Question
Yes.Brandon Sanderson
I actually give you some tools for figuring these sorts of things out in Bands of Mourning, so I'll refer you to that, because I'm dolling the physics of these things out, and since I know it's coming in January, just read that one. You'll get some more actual concrete laws and rules so you can start extrapolating.Tags

So those guys in the ships [in Sixth of the Dusk] were the Mistborn people from the future, right?Brandon Sanderson

Question
The visitors in the Sixth of the Dusk, do I know who they are?Brandon Sanderson
I haven’t answered this for sure, but I have told people that it takes place in the future and is related to the rest of the cosmere…Question
Do we know how soon we’ll find out?Brandon Sanderson
It’s a little ways off.Question
Will it be the series the visitors are from [...]Brandon Sanderson
Sixth of the Dusk is not going to be a series. You will see references to them elsewhere but…Tags

At the end of Sixth of Dusk, were those Mistborn space-opera-people that showed up at the end?Brandon Sanderson

OverheardBrandon Sanderson
I distinctly heard Brandon talking with the other table about space travel as relates to Roshar. He was talking about how the magic can already control gravity/pressure and the like, but the thing that stood out clearly was that he was saying that they already had an ansible. The only candidate for that is spanreeds/conjoiner fabrials, so that's a nice confirmation there that they communicate faster than light.Tags
