I had one of the best dreams ever I'm my life. or at least the most cosmere answering dream. basically it was about the intent of all the shards now first think of the shards like the allumantic metals its a little different there's physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. with that now in mind organize the shards in those groups this is sort of what it looks like. Physical: ruin, preservation, cultivation, Baron Emotional: odium, joy, anguish, null Cognitive: ambition, Instinct, honor, autonomy Spiritual: devotion, dominion, endowment, ambition So to explain my madness this is how It works the physical shards interact with the world as there intent ruin wants to destroy the world preservation wants no change. cultivation most likely wants things to grow baron (one of the ones I saw in my dream) wants nothing to grow not destroy like ruin but make it dead like if there is a tree ant it is growing baron first stops it from growing then it will start to die. the emotional shards intent is more based on an emotion odium being hate he kills shards joy, his opposite, does other things I don't remember that part of the dream and that's its intent not the name. anguish is pain and suffering. Null is blank feeling nothing or felling powerless. The cognitive shards are more of a way of thinking. Instinct is the one who wants to hide/survive the coward basically and opposite to honor who would do anything as long as it was following the oaths. the spiritual shards are more of mess with most likely endowment the only one that is not shattered I say most likely because I don't remember whether or not ambition went in this group or not if you go by ambition being its intent then I'd say yes and since what happened on its planet It probably goes in here. The system I have here is some what complicated if you imagine the allumantic metals chart and lets say we're in the physical section ruin and preservation are opposites so they go next to each other and on the top row cultivation and baron are also opposites they go below with baron diagonal to ruin and cultivation diagonal to preservation. the reason for that is the shards above or below are slight or half way opposites and the diagonal by either intent or the nature of the shards like cultivation and preservation both are good at seeing into the future. if you where wondering why Joy is odium's opposite and not love that's because you can love someone you hate but you can't fell joy for them. one of the shards are missing I don't remember everything If I do I'll post it here and if you like this way of organizing the shards then see if you can improve it or something. I also don't have really any WoB to support any of the new shards sorry about that
