Betrail Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 So Wyndle stated that the nightwatcher gave lift the ability to touch spren. (Spoilers from the expert of book 3/ post WoR) In the chat between kaladin and syl she talks about hunts between spren implying that spren can be harmed in the cognitive realm, and with Jasnah and ivory when she traveled to the cognitive realm ivory implied that there was spren that would kill her, but could not in the physical world. Since lift is able to touch spren would that mean that she could also get killed by one? Would be interesting to see her running from some allies or take wounds... from nothing-as observed by her allies. You all think it could be her death? (Let it please not happen I see something bad with being able to touch spren) Also is she able to attract spren? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moogle Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 An interesting idea. It shouldn't be possible for spren to harm her invisibly though, I think. She doesn't randomly have her hand snag on them in the Cognitive, she just is able to touch them in the Physical. Perhaps a painspren could harm her in the Physical, though. Then again, I don't think she has a lot to worry about on that front. Stormlight healing is crazy good, and Shardblades can hurt spren. I'd pity the spren that tried. Also is she able to attract spren? Well, she has Wyndle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Well, what Betrail means is, can Lift attract a logicspren or a painspren? If so, and knowing how horrible the Grinders are (Stone Unhallowed reading), that could be a serious problem. Then again, if she counts as a spren, we have heard Syl say that attracting other spren would be impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lift bonded Wyndle after she visited the Nightwatcher, so she's quite clearly capable of attracting other spren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betrail Posted November 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I ask that because I found it odd that no exhaustion-spren came to her when she used up all of her stormlight, unless they are just so common that they ignore them. Although emotion spren would be very important to a thief as they cant attract spren as that would give them away. Actually I don't remember any talk of a spren besides Wyndle.

Kyats Rani she/her Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 There are no spren in Shinovar so maybe the further west the less common they are? It was said somewhere (I think there was a WoB or something) that spren must be close enough to be attracted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
