'''Shadesmar''' is the word used on [[Roshar]]{{17s ref|post|66703|Shadesmar is just a rough translation of "Cognitive Realm" in the language of whoever first found out about it|date=05 October 2013}} for the [[Cognitive Realm]].{{qa ref|428|10|Shadesmar is the Cognitive Realm|date=Jul, 2009}} It is a plane of existence which connects all the Shardworlds,{{qa ref|428|10|There is a single plane of existence|date=Jul 2009}} and can be manipulated for quick travel.{{qa ref|428|102|Hoid in Well of Ascension|date=Jul 2009}}
 
The term "Shadesmar" is a [[Roshar]]-specific word{{qa ref|1086|17|Is there a difference between Shadesmar and the Cognitive Realm?|date=Mar 4th, 2014}}, but Sanderson translates other world's names for the place to "Shadesmar" as well.{{qa ref|1108|16|Is Shadesmar a Roshar specific term?|date=Mar 13th, 2014}}
It could be used to travel between the Shardworlds.
 
So far the only known characters to visit thereShadesmar are [[Hoid]], [[Shallan Davar]] and [[Jasnah Kholin]], but it will become much more important in future books.{{qa ref|533|9|Stormlight Archives hints|date=Sep 16th, 2010}} It is likely that this is also how members of the [[Seventeenth Shard]] travel.
 
The [[ardent]]s in Roshar are aware of Shadesmar, and apparently have text describing someone traveling there.{{book ref|sa1|i|8}}
 
Access to Shadesmar is different on different worlds{{qa ref|585|8|Do the other worlds have different ways of accessing Shadesmar?|date=Dec 25th, 2010}}, and it is apparently a very dangerous place near [[Sel]]{{qa ref|699|4|Written on Puck's copy of Elantris|date=Mar 19th, 2011}}{{qa ref|977|11|Getting to Sel is really tough|date=Sep, 2012}}{{qa ref|977|170|Getting to and through Shadesmar is very difficult on Sel|date=Sep, 2012}} for reasons indirectly related to the splintering of its [[Shard|Shards]].{{qa ref|986|17|Is this a consequence of Odium Splintering Aona and Skai?|date=Oct 30th, 2012}}{{qa ref|1102|2|Has to do with the name of that expanse|date=Dec 8th, 2012}} When Odium splintered the shards there, he left their power in his wake, which is now mindless. The spren keep similar powers in check on [[Roshar]], and [[Kelsier]] did so on [[Scadrial]] before [[Vin]] acquired [[Preservation]].{{qa ref|944|7|Why is it dangerous to travel in Sel?|date=2013}}
 
== Appearance ==
{{quote|... a place with a black sky and a strange, small white sun that hung on the horizon ... Flames hovered nearby ... Like the tips of candles floating in the air and moving with the wind ... An endless dark sea, except it wasn't wet. It was made of the small beads, an entire ocean of tiny glass spheres|Shallan Davar{{book ref|sa1|45}}}}
 
Geographically it appears to be a reflection of [[Roshar]], with its inland seas corresponding exactly to the shape of the land of Roshar. When asked if this is the general rule, Sanderson said "there are places in Shadesmar that are different, and some are the same."{{qa ref|1108|17|ground/water inversion|date=Mar 13th, 2014}}
 
== Regions ==
The map of Shadesmar found in [[The Way of Kings]] includes several regions perpendicular to [[Roshar]], as well as the names of other Expanses. If you walk far enough in the direction of one of those expanses(often days), you can arrive on other worlds.{{17s ref|post|204063| ... but you can go to Shadesmar, walk in the directions where it says "The Realm of the Vapors" and it runs into Scadrial|date=2014-12-10}} The areas labeled are as follows:

== Uses ==
Shadesmar can be visited by those with an inherent Soulcasting ability. EntranceOn to[[Roshar]], itentrance is granted by beings that Jasnah calls a type of [[spren]]. They appear in The Way of Kings to Shallan Davar and [[Elhokar Kholin]], and one of these beings (unofficially called a [[truthspren]]) is described by Shallan as
 
{{quote|a figure with a sharp, angular symbol hovering above its collar instead of a head|Shallan Davar{{book ref|sa1|45}}}}
Apparently{{book ref|WoK|70}}, you need Stormlight (or alternative source of power) in order to control objects in Shadesmar, as well as for [[soulcasting]]. Traveling there without sufficient stormlight is considered to be extremely risky.
 
This is not the only way of entering Shadesmar. There is a way to access Shadesmar on other worlds, though it is not clear how to do so.
 
Hoid uses Shadesmar to travel between worlds.{{qa ref|585|8|Does Hoid use Shadesmar to world-hop?|date=Dec 25th, 2010}} The [[Seventeenth Shard]] may also use Shadesmar for inter-planetary travel, although this is not confirmed. Hoid's method for traveling there is not yet known, though he uses it to travel from world to world. It is possible other worldhoppers use Shadesmar similarly.
 
It is dangerous to travel to Shadesmar on [[Sel]].{{qa ref|699|4|Written on Puck's copy of Elantris|date=Mar 19th, 2011}}
