Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies #81: "Gregorina" - Sanderson's 2nd Law of Magic

The Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies

#CosmereSpoilers

This week, the SICS hosts take a break from Roshar to look into another of Sanderson's Laws of Magic. Brandon Sanderson has proposed three "laws" when it comes to writing, the second of which is that "Limitations are more interesting than abilities." What does he mean by this? That's exactly what we're talking about this episode!
