1 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: Sanderson ended up changing several things from his original conception of the novel. |
2 | ** Raoden was originally supposed to have been in Elantris for awhile, rather than a newcomer. |
3 | ** Raoden was originally supposed to have a younger brother "the Mad Prince" who would act as a supporting villain, but was cut for being largely extraneous to the novel due to being introduced right after [[spoiler:Sarene gets out of Elantris]] and only being around for a fairly short time in only a handful of scenes before [[spoiler:Eondel kills him]] (though Sanderson admitted to liking the character) - Telrii ended up taking over the meatier portions of his role. |
4 | ** Hrathen was originally supposed to be a Dula who converted to Shu-Dereth and betrayed his own people to the Fjordell- this was changed because it undermined the ending of Hrathen's arc [[spoiler: where the very Fjordell Hrathen turns against his people and his prophet-king to do what's right]]. |
5 | * WordOfGod: There are two Shards of Adonalsium on Sel; Devotion and Dominion, [[spoiler: but their holders (Aona and Skai) were killed by Odium's holder Rayse, who then splintered their Shards so they could not be used.]] |
