The Planets are at least named after the Heralds. However after what we saw in Mistborn it schould be possible for Odium to just take Braize physicaly and run.

"Autonomy's policy of isolationism in recent times"(Arkanum Unbound|Brandon Sanderson) This quote seems to make it clear that Autonomy is the shard that just wants to hide and Survive.

Jet Divine Breaths are tho only pieces of a shard where it is unproven that they are self aware. personally I think that the bond between a Returned and Divine Breath is like a (imperfect hence the breath once a week)Nahel bond only the other way around. It would explain the memory loss and the possibility to rememmber fragments of thre former lives. And when the bond is Broken (giving ons life for another) both participants die (or arerelesed). Kelsier did take up Preservation however he felt resitence at first as he tried to take it up and the connection was uncomplite way weeker than Vins later on so it wich leads me to think that it depends on the Shard and Shardholder if the shard kan be taken up.

Adonalsium split into 16 shards which were taken up by 16 sapients. This indicates that Adonalsium was self aware. The definition of splinter is a self aware pice of a shard. But no shard has to our knowledge attained self awareness. This indicates 2 possibilities 1 there was always someone who took up the shard. Not leaving it enough time to attain self awareness 2 shards can't attain selfawareness because they are both too powerful and/or to powerless. If it is 1 can splinters be taken up before attainig self awareness (divine breath? )? Could it be that Adonalsium was taken up by a sapient. Has any shard attaind selfawareness?

After reading this threed i thought what if (Stormlight spoiler) That would explain the los of memories as well as they ganing investure and beeing unable to split that ivesture up( like turning the Divine Breaths into many normal breathes) The breath a week would be an investure that was expended for the bond (on roschar there is enought stormlight that nobody would notic such a little drain)
