Stormlight for other shards?

[noobedmaster7]

We know that 3 shards have their own "light" honor-stormlight, Cultivation-lifelight, and odium with void light. Can the other shards make or produce their own light? Do we have any confirmation on anything like this for other shards?

Light is the gaseous and liquid phases for the Rosharon Shards. Other Shards already have something that fills these roles (Breath, the mists, etc). Mist might be capturable in a gemstone (don't know if it can), but probably won't give off light like Stormlight.

I know that there's three sorts of forms that magic presents itself in, the liquid and the solid and air. What would Breath be?

Brandon Sanderson

Breath is definitely like mist, it is in the form of the air.

Questioner

And is Stormlight the same?

Brandon Sanderson

Stormlight is the same.

Also adding that most forms of investiture give off some light. The Dor on Sel is white plasma (so kind of like a gaseous Light?), and the Hion lines on Komashi are neon cyan and magenta.
Technically the sand on Taldain glows when being mastered, but that's from the organisms in the sand and not Autonomy's interaction.

According to Coppermind, when a Shard invests a world, it's mainly the planet that decides how the magic will form. Shardic intent also plays a part.

(From https://coppermind.net/wiki/Shard#Magic_Generation )

When a Shard Invests a world, it will begin to fuel the local Invested Arts. Each Shard can do this differently, though much of the system is dictated by the planet itself. Because of this connection to the magic, a Shard is able to directly interact with its users and provide Investiture when necessary, without the need for intermediaries.[2]

While not all Invested Arts in the cosmere are directly tied to a Shard, Shardic presence greatly influences the shape a magic system takes. On a planet inhabited by a Shard, magic forms as a result of the interactions between a Shard's power, Realmatics, the world's natural inclinations and, in some cases, even genetics.[2][fn 3] For this reason, the exact function magic performs will not always be related to the Shard's nature -- for example, Surgebinding, despite being powered by Honor, is capable of manipulating Division, which controls separating things. However, how the magic is obtained is tied to the Shard.[232] Hemalurgy demands that a person be destroyed, in line with the Intent of Ruin, while Surgebinding demands forging bonds.

Shards are capable of putting rules and limitations upon an Invested Art, often times to prevent an Invested Art being used to its theoretical maximum capacity.

Supposedly, there was also a version of stormlight on Roshar from before the Shattering and before Honor arrived.

Questioner

I want to know if there was Stormlight before Honor.

Brandon Sanderson

So before Honor arrived there was a proto-version of the storms and a version of Stormlight. Yes.

Questioner

Okay, but it was different?

Brandon Sanderson

It-- Things were different.

So I'm guessing that the Shards can't really change how their investiture manifests? I think they can only change the rules and mechanics. Honor probably can't change stormlight to be a liquid, since stormlight already existed. Likewise Devotion/Dominion can't make a "forgery-light" or whatever. Probably.
We'll have to wait until we can see the other shards to know if there's any other gaseous glowing invested art.

[Nitpicking]

Both Taldain and Canticle already have light-form Investiture, from Autonomy and an unknown source, respectively.
