Aons at the time of splintering


Question

Posted

So we know that when Odium Shattered Honor, a lot of the extra investiture went into the spren, being a pre established pathway for honors investiture.  This extra investiture resulted in more spren all over roshar.  Now what happened to the Aons when Dominion and Devotion were shattered?  I know the seons and the skaze most likely provided some release, but would active Aons receive a massive burst of power?

Aons in their current form did not exist pre-Splintering.  

While true, the magic was still Programming-based.

Umm... yes. They are all programming-based. But of course, with true programming, the form doesn't matter, it's the numbers. And in this case the form does. The actual depictions do matter.

I could see one of the pre-Splintering magic systems having forms like Aons, but after the power was thrown into the CR, the necessary shapes changed. I don't think they'd still be functional after the Splintering.

So the answer to your question is still no, but for an extension of Landis's reason.
