Its been a while since I read RoW so I may be wrong on some of this, but this thought came up when reading another post.
RoW - All & Mistborn Secret History
- Do we know what happens when a godmetal is taken into the cognitive realm?
- We know that lower spren have a presence in both the physical and cognitive realm - do bonded spren have a visible presence in the cognitive realm when they are in the physical? In M:SH people show up as lights in the cognitive realm.
- if you can take one of those god metal (or inverted god metal) assassin blades into the cognitive realm, could you kill A) spren B) people using them?
love these questions/thoughts.

vasher/vivenna went through the cog realm with their awakened blades.
wonder if there’d be a similar behaviour there.
i’ve wondered this too. is it more like shard blades manifesting from nothing in the physical? or more like dead-eyes in the cog realm? i think we’ve also seen people as lights in ob, when the group is traveling toward thaylen city? another interesting thought along these lines is that deadeyes don’t seem to change location in the cognitive realm when summoned. they will wander toward their physical self, but you can just imprison them (like in lasting integrity) to stop that. i assume they wouldn’t bother imprisoning them if they’d just blip out every summon.
would absolutely believe that A is true, based on the raysium dagger in row.
For 3 I was more thinking - if people/spren have a presence in the cognitive realm while in the physical - would one of those daggers, tuned to counter the default investiture of the person kill them (in the physical realm) from the cognitive realm?
fair point on the deadeyes though - they can be fully in both realms at the same time? - i assume if you killed them, someone’s shardblade would go poof
