That_One_Fangirl Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) Ok, according to my research there are sixteen shards, but there are only ten known shards, correct? (Not including the 17th shard theory) Edited April 12, 2019 by That_One_Fangirl
2 Elegy he/him Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Yes, that's exactly how it is! Additionally, Brandon has confirmed that there's no actual 17th Shard.

And welcome to the Shard!
0 Vanillaice Posted May 8, 2019 Posted May 8, 2019 Yes there are only 16 shards. As fan sites gain more notoriety there will be many theories that will be made that don't have much information backing them. The 17th shard is a group that follow Frost. Frost is a dragon not a god.

They definitly don't follow frost, it is implied that he is someway involved in 17th shard but just because they both have non-intervention policies. Quote He is associated with the Seventeenth Shard,[24] a group that shares his nonintervention policy. -coppermind

If he isn't the leader than he has leverage
0 Karger he/him Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 I also assume 17th shard is a bit of a joke or at least a metaphor. The 8th wonder or the black swan.
0 Ryan Diggory he/him Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 The "17th shard" is us! WE ARE A SHARD! Our knowledge together, our power together, makes us a shard. We are the 17th shard. But other than that, yeah 16 in the Cosmere.
0 bxcnch he/him Posted August 26, 2019 Posted August 26, 2019 Well, technically there were 16 Shards. I think, as far as we know there's 12 in the moment (thanks to Rayse and Sazed).
