The Elemental Shard Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 If so does the well of ascension fit this?
0 Weltall Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) Perpendicularities already allow transition between any of the Realms. Khriss discusses it in the Arcanum Unbounded essays and Dalinar notes it when he opens Honor's Perpendicularity. There's also this WoB: Quote Oversleep Could you use perpendicularities to see into Spiritual Realm? Brandon Sanderson Yes. Skyward Pre-Release AMA (Oct. 4, 2018) Edited June 24, 2019 by Weltall
0 RShara she/her Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Perpendicularities are concentrations of investiture intense enough to pierce all three Realms. So yeah, by definition, a perpendicularity allows access to the Physical, Cognitive, and Spiritual. Quote TheFulgid Could you Invest... Could you use a nicrosil metalmind to Invest the sort of Investiture enough that you could open a Perpendicularity up to the Cognitive Realm? Brandon Sanderson So, I'll just say it this way. Enough concentrated Investiture in one point is going to pierce the Realms, no matter what form it takes. TheFulgid ...So, it doesn't have to be a nicrosil metalmind. Brandon Sanderson No. TheFulgid Okay... But it could be? Brandon Sanderson Yes. That is theoretically possible. Oathbringer release party (Nov. 13, 2017) Quote Questioner In our universe, mass and energy curve space. I was wondering if Investiture does the same or something similar Brandon Sanderson It does something similar. It draws the three Realms together. So it's got like-- Imagine a gravitational pull piercing Realms. Right? Of kind of-- Questioner And that's how a perpendicularity works? Brandon Sanderson That's not the only way a perpendicularity works, but one surefire way to create a perpendicularity is a massive collection of Investiture in the Cognitive or mostly Physical realm. But Cognitive's weird, doesn't always work the right way. But there are ways to do it that way too. Salt Lake City signing (Dec. 16, 2017)
