Brandon Sanderson [PENDING REVIEW] Yeah source Quote Questioner [PENDING REVIEW] The cracked stone spren that we saw, we didn't get a name for them, are they the Stoneward spren? Brandon Sanderson [PENDING REVIEW] Yes- Oh wait, yes. Questioner [PENDING REVIEW] Do they have a name you can canonize right now?

Having questions of mine spread around the internet before I even have a chance to get home from the con and add atributation is the best kind of "problem" I could have. By all means keep doing what you're doing! I thought these were all pretty intuitive, but I had heard some other opinions so I'm glad we finally have confirmation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainKing Posted April 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 I always thought they were truthwatchers spren because they are called light spren and truthwatchers spren appear as reflected light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciridae Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 There's also this Quote [PENDING REVIEW] The mistspren, who were on the <??> ship, are they radiantspren? Brandon Sanderson [PENDING REVIEW] No they are not. source Which I think is really exciting. There was a bit of a debate whether these were truthwatcher or skybreaker spren. So instead what could they be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainKing Posted April 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 This is also really exciting because all sentient spren that weren't radiantspren don't seem to associate with radiantspren but now we have an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not Radiant spren, they're spren who are sapient, that aren't affiliated with the Knights. 6 minutes ago, MountainKing said: This is also really exciting because all sentient spren that weren't radiantspren don't seem to associate with radiantspren but now we have an example.

So you're definitely not alone in that, and that's another part of why I asked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing that they are not affiliated at all is pretty cool. The only other sapient spren we've seen so far (on Roshar) that weren't associated with an order were voidspren. I just think it's interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why or how that works, but I can't help but think that mistspren originate from Scadrial's Cognitive Realm that developed sapience due to how Roshar works with regards to Splinters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that idea. Celebrant is closeish to the beginning of the expanse of vapours. I'm pretty sure someone asked Brandon about either Splinters of Harmony or Preservation but I can't remember what the answer was and I'm having trouble finding anything on the arcanum...

Quote Alex Hetu If you went to Shadesmar on Scadrial would there be spren there? Brandon Sanderson "Spren" is a term for things on Roshar. So yes, there are a few, but they're from Roshar originally. source Last sentence is most important. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's said so many times that spren don't know how to get off world and yet. It'd be interesting to know at what time there are spren in Scadrial's CR.
