In this week’s new Writing Excuses episode, Geography and Biomes, Brandon, Dan, Howard, and Mahtab Narsimhan who joins WX this year for a dozen episodes on worldbuilding, talk about geography and biomes and how settings can be central to the stories you tell, but they can also be backdrops, and the story purposes they serve may determine which tools we use to describe them.
Last week, in Tor.com’s continuing reread of Oathbringer, Kaladin and Shallan arrive back from Thaylen City after having opened the Oathgate on that side. Dalinar drops a heavy burden on Kaladin’s life—that of (more) responsibility. When the war is over, he’ll have lands and people to manage in his capacity as a Shardbearer and a brightlord. Dalinar and his retinue activate the gate and step through, finding the destruction that the Everstorm has wrought. This week, in chapter 60, Kaladin, Shallan, Adolin, Elhokar, Skar, Drehy, and three of Shallan’s followers are riding the storm towards Kholinar. When they arrive, Kaladin immediately notices that the city is still under Alethi rule, but there’s something dark and wrong with the palace—or more accurately, the oathgate platform beside it.
