When Odium Splintered Devotion and Dominion, he trapped their power in the [[Cognitive Realm]] to prevent them from gaining another Vessel. Since, unlike in the [[Spiritual Realm]], space is limited in the Cognitive Realm, the power of the two Shards is trapped together as a giant, polarized, storm of Investiture, known as the [[Dor]], which makes the Cognitive Realm around Sel very dangerous.{{wob ref|2546}}{{au ref|Sel}} This has a profound effect on the magic systems on Sel, in two main ways. First, since the powers are trapped together, all magic systems are influenced in some way by both Shards.{{wob ref|9830}} Second, and perhaps more importantly, because location exists in the Cognitive Realm, magic is tied to the user's physical location.{{wob ref|1625}}{{au ref|Sel}} This is seen most dramatically with [[AonDor]], as the strength of Aons diminishes as one gets farther from [[Elantris]].{{book ref|Elantris|62}} Furthermore, in order to access a magic system, it appears one must be from the land associated with that magic system.{{Citewob ref|2173}} For likely the same reason, shapes used in accessing magic on Sel are often tied to the lands associated with that magic.{{book ref|Elantris|49}}{{tes ref|30}}
 
The [[Aon]]s at the heart of the [[seon]]s are [[Splinter]]s of Devotion,{{wob ref|4679}} and have at least some sense that they came from something larger and how they were created, which causes them to consider Devotion as something of a god or parent.{{wob ref|3024}}
