Zinnny Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Any chance that one or more heralds have been seen in another cosmere novel (specifically before they broke). If not, what are the odds that they might be cosmere aware? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necessary Eagle she/her Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 I think there's a WoB somewhere about how Cognitive Shadows like the Heralds have difficulty leaving their homeworlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here you go. http://www.theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=1182#52 Quote QUESTION Have we seen cameos of Heralds on other Shardworlds? BRANDON SANDERSON The Heralds are tied to the system by the magic that permeates them. They could not leave. It’s part of the magic. Some would call them Cognitive Shadows, right? Whether they are or not. ‘Cognitive Shadow’ is a very ambiguous term in the Cosmere. It means, basically your soul-- Investiture replaced your soul, and permeated your soul, and your soul continues to exist, but you are usually Invested with something, that’s tied, and you’re basically like pure Investiture then. You’re tied to the thing you’re Connected to. Most of the things that you’re gonna see like that, traveling is going to be very difficult, unless you know how to do it. You have seen people do it. QUESTION Who? BRANDON SANDERSON Vasher. QUESTION Sure, sure. BRANDON SANDERSON You have seen people do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The One Who Connects he/him Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Have this as a bit of info for the future. On 9/17/2016 at 0:04 PM, The One Who Connects said: Dec, 2010: Who each of the Heralds are and what their natures were is important. March 11, 2014: Were the heralds born on Roshar? RAFO Sept 4th, 2014: Is he Rosharan? Taln is Rosharan. // Native to Roshar. That I have to RAFO. // The Heralds are from the same place that Taln is from. Feb 17, 2016: The Heralds do not come from Nalthis, but that is an excellent question. Apr 8th, 2016: It is normal for a cognitive shadow to get stuck to places, because they exist through investiture it is normal for them to get tied to an area. This happened with Odium and the two shards on Roshar, Preservation to Ruin, and the Heralds (To Roshar? Braize?).
