I ask because I was wondering if any of the sapient species of Yolen have a hive mind? I tried to think how someone like Arclo from Stormlight Archive might interpret Autonomy or any other intent, and I couldn’t help but wonder if being made up of various “cremlings” would influence things. While I don’t think they are the same species I wonderd if there could still be something similar going on here? My Dragonsteel/Yolen Knowledge is VERY POOR but I THOUGHT there MIGHT be THREE species which opens the door for one who is like this. In any case I thought it was worth mentioning on the off chance it helps.
Fanghur Rahl he/him Posted September 7, 2018 Author Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) Well that’s actually a valid point, since the Singers kind of have a hive mind of sorts, and I think Brandon has said that the Singers are related to the fane life in some way, and I think the Sho-Del are a species of fane life. So who knows? Edited September 7, 2018 by Fanghur Rahl
Scion of the Mists Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 There are/were three races on Yolen: humans, dragons, and Sho Del. None of those are hiveminds.

None of those are hiveminds. Do we actually know that for a fact? Because like I said, the Singers are kinda like a hive mind (or at least share some characteristics of one), and Brandon has said that they’re related to the fane life (I think).

Yes, somebody actually asked that exact question: Quote The Sovereign Are the Shodel hordlings and/or a hivemind? Brandon Sanderson The Shodel are NOT a hivemind. source And I don't think I've seen anything that the Singers are related to Fain life (besides being around pre-shattering).

Fair enough. I remember someone asking if the Singers’ gemhearts are in any way related to the Fain life, and Brandon said that they were. At least I think.
