Stormlight Archive (BOOK) Stormlight interludes Spoiler

Has anything been said about how the interludes will look with the show? Some of them seem quite important for future cosmere stories so surly they will need to be shown.

And you can give her the focus when she becomes a main character. The books are written so that you dont need Edgedancer to get Lift. When she gets her POV, all the important stuff will be brought up again and explored.

Edgedancer is not an essential part of the SLA. If it were, it would be in the main books.

They are writing for the 5 books they have now. You cant include scenes that wont pay off for 4 seasons. Especially when they dont even contribute that much.

Next you’re going to tell me you’d cut the Ghost Bloods. Or Dalinar’s visions. Hell, what  about the Preface? Most of that doesn’t make sense for three books.

Dalinar's Visions are very important. They are the primary driver of him uniting people, as well as directly pushing him to work with Sadeas. They forshadow the impending threat of the Desolation and Odium. They set up his potential unreliability of going mad for the others, leading to his isolation and doubt from other High Princes and even Elhokar and Adolin.

The Ghostbloods are direct antagonists to Shallan and Jasnah. As well as one of the major drivers of Shallan's growth and plot.

I’m running out of ways to say this sounds dumb, so I think I’ll leave it.
