    Welcome to Return to Roshar, where we speak again the Ancient Oaths by going through Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Books and put everything into a wider Cosmere context. So, a spoiler warning is in effect for every Cosmere book published at the time of recording, and that means up to Rhythm of War, for now. In this episode of R2R, Cody and Dee discuss chapter 25 of The Way of Kings, as we continue the series of episodes looking at Kaladin's backstory. Join us this time, as our Radiant hosts discuss Roshone's arrival in Hearthstone, our dreams of a true Breakneck game, and of course a lot more of that classic Lirin-Kaladin conflict. We will continue specifically covering the Kaladin Backstory chapters in full for 4 more episodes, prior to digging into the "present" tense of this book. We hope this is a new and interesting way to relive the series, and we hope you ride the Highstorm with us through this journey.
