Hoid the Former Drifter he/him Posted July 27, 2020 Posted July 27, 2020 What is the prison in the Well of Ascension? Fuzz said it's not a plug, but then what is it?
Honorless he/him Posted July 30, 2020 Posted July 30, 2020 A lot of people have theorized on its nature but we don't know the exact Realmatics of it, we don't know how exactly it worked

Honorless he/him Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 Spoiler Brandon Sanderson Shards influence and tweak certain Investiture, giving it a kind of spin or magnetism, but all Investiture ever predates the Shattering--and in the cosmere matter, energy, and Investiture are one thing. I always imagine Investiture having certain states, certain magnetisms if you will, associated with certain aspects of Adonalsium. So it's all "assigned" to a Shard--because it's always been associated with that Shard. To Investiture, Adonalsium's Shattering meant everything and nothing at the same time. We generally mean the term "Invested" to mean a Shard has taken permanent residence in a location, a kind of base of operations--but at the same time, this is meaningless, since distance has no meaning on the Spiritual Realm, where most Shards are. So imprisonment of a Shard like Ruin or Odium is a crude expression--but the best we have.
