About Earth in the Cosmere

Hello. I am afraid you are mistaken; the line in Elantris is: "It had come with a tempest—that much even Raoden remembered. The earth itself had shattered." The capitalization of the word earth in that matters, so clearly this line is just generically using "earth" for "the ground." This is not really that uncommon a turn of phrase. You are also mistaken, and there is very consistent evidence for the fact that the planet Earth is not in the cosmere. See on Arcanum for many many quotes on this: [1]

Additionally, edits must be written in an encyclopedic way. If you would like to dispute something, use {{disputed}}.

For these reasons, I have reverted your edits. My apologies! -- Chaos2651 (talk) 17:45, 23 June 2018 (MST)

No apologies needed and thanks for the tips.

If "Earth" didn't exist in the Cosmere there would be no use for the word in the universe, period. In short if there is no Earth why would the ground be considered earth. Earth being used in the generic sense of "ground" etc... shouldn't exist in a Universe that has no Earth in the universe, the word "earth" would be unknown. Earth is definitively a name which can be used in other ways, our home planets name, the earth we walk on, etc.... But without something called Earth in the universe no one would use it in such a way. Mistake or otherwise, Earth/earth exists in the Cosmere.

There are so many alternatives to describe this assertion, for instance: Roshar, Sel etc... could be used to describe ground, planet, world

Would you go to Roshar or Sel or whatever and say? - "It had come with a tempest—that much even Raoden remembered. The earth itself had shattered" Heck no. You would say Roshar or the ground of Sel, or whatever had shattered. The fact is Earth is a very specific name of a planet. Whithout it's existence in the Cosmere it just doesn't exist in any form, but it does.
