Shatter He/Him Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 (edited) A collective noun is a word referring to a collection of things taken as a whole. In #English we have a gaggle of geese, a pack of dogs, a murder of crows, etc. But what about spren? @Njvodin created a topic in the Wind and Truth Spoiler Forum where they translated from Navani's notes in Chapter 23 for @alder24. @Njvodin translated Navani as: A flare of flamespren, a gust of windspren, an affliction of painspren. @Stark added: A cringe of shamespren, a quiver of fearspren, a rage of angerspren, a famine of hungerspren, an unease of anxietyspren, a giggle of joyspren, a mass of gravityspren. @JustQuestin2004 wrote: A chill of coldspren, a tavern of alespren, a jail of captivityspren, a melody of musicspren, a tide of wavespren. Any others? Edited October 22, 2024 by The Shattered Cosmere Making it easier to read 7

Stark he/him Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 A jury of highspren? A judgement? A puddle of rainspren. A vernissage of creationspren. Or exhibition? An elan of lifespren. Do armor spren get a distinct name when in armor form? 1

I think Highspren would be offended by the implication that they are nebulous and/or imprecise, but I like the astronomy theme. A System of Highspren? , astronomy aside, it's probably a Court of Highspren, honestly. Id say a Spectrum of Lightspren, but that implies too much internal variety. And Flare has been claimed for Flamespren... A Shine of Ligtspren? 3 minutes ago, anna said: A kaladin of gloomspren Hahah, you win the internet for today. 1
