Greater Awakening and Manipulating the Cognitive Aspect

[Trusk'our he/him]

When you use Greater Awakening, you are able to Awaken an inanimate object of non-biological origin. Its personality is greatly influenced by the command given to it. Would the personality of the inanimate object before it was Awakened also contribute to its personality? For instance, if you Awakened a sword that you had carried with you for years, that had saved your life many times, that you had gained a great affection towards, would that sword, if Awakened, have a different personality than some random sword you pulled off of the armory rack and Awakened? Is why Adolin’s shardblade, Maya, is starting to heal a little bit, because he views her as a sentient being, rather than a dead object?

I think that would be reasonable to assume. My personal guess is that the Command would take precedence but holes would be filled out with the objects previous Cognitive aspect.

I wonder what "the stick" would have personality wise if it were to be Awakened
