Summary
The Cognitive Realm, a plane of existence that lies over Roshar with land and sea reversed. Its ground is an ocean of glass beads beneath a black sky, human lives show as floating flames, and spren are its natives. Soulcasters can glimpse it and a few characters enter it. Worlds link through it, and caravans cross it, resupplying on Roshar. Celebrant is one of its cities.
