Chapter 74b: The Wheel Turns Ever Onward

Huh.

Whats up?

I passed a year on Joriah at some point recently.

It sort of spread out his weight, under his entire body, but only so long as the ground was at the same level as his feet. Walking with knives for shoes meant the point of the knife was the bottom of his foot and the weight was distributed across its normal area. But if he was standing on a knife, then it would be driven into the ground until it was flush with its surroundings or it was somehow able to hold Edwin up.
