Endowment is one of the sixteen Shards of Adonalsium. The Shard's Vessel is Edgli.[1] She is located on Nalthis and is the only Shard present on that world.[2]
Associated Magic
Endowment's magic system is Awakening, which matches its intent: Breath can be gifted (endowed) to others, and also used to impart "life" to inanimate objects.
Endowment is responsible for the Returned.[3] A Splinter of Endowment known as a divine Breath is what resurrects the Returned and grants them their abilities.[4]
Letters to Hoid
Endowment wrote the first Oathbringer letter to Hoid. She believes that Rayse is not a threat and is unsympathetic to the deaths of Aona and Skai, as they had broken their pact.
The Tears of Edgli
The Tears of Edgli are a special flower that grows only in Hallandren[5] that come in a variety of colors and are more efficient when used as a source of color for Awakening.[6] They are related to Endowment,[7] and their connection to Awakening suggests they may contain some of her Investiture.
Trivia
- She is fine with her Breath being used to feed the Returned.[8]
- The Shard of Endowment is the one Hoid would have taken if he wanted a Shard.[9]
- In the Well of Ascension's original ending, Endowment was one of many Shards which saved Sazed from Marsh.[10]
