So for a while now I have been pushing a theory I had on the light eyes of roshar that have been soulcast after death being Awakened. Having begun a listen through of all the audiobooks rather than a re-read I have this interesting quote from words of radiance chapter 2.

“Breath, a man’s breath was his life exhaled bit by bit back into the world. Kaladin breathed deeply with his eyes closed and for a time that’s all he could hear, his own life, in, out to the beating of the thunder in his chest. Breath, his own little storm. Outside the rain had stopped but Kaladin remained sitting in the darkness. when kings and light eyes die their bodies weren’t burned like common men, instead they were soulcast. Statues of stone or metal…”

Get ready for KALADins phantoms, I am more sure then ever.
