The Ring is an organization of cultivationspren[1] in Shadesmar, the Cognitive Realm of Roshar.[2]
Composition and Purpose
The Ring consists of multiple members, as Wyndle refers to it as "they".[3] They view the Old Magic's touch on Lift as a blessing from their "mother",[3] the same term that Wyndle uses for the Shard Cultivation.[4][5] The usual purpose of the Ring is not clear, but they appear to have authority among cultivationspren, as Wyndle was compelled to take an assignment at their request.[3] They may also have authority over mistspren, as Wyndle notes that they were considering bonding Ym, who was of the Order of Truthwatchers before his death.
History
The cultivationspren decided to start trying to form new Nahel bonds after other spren such as the Cryptics and the honorspren started to do so.[6] As they were not sure how exactly to accomplish this due to the length of time since the Recreance,[6] the Ring served as a committee[1] that oversaw the process.[3]
Wyndle's Assignment
Wyndle was happily living in Shadesmar when the Ring chose him to try and form a Nahel bond with someone in the Physical Realm. He was not happy about his mission and referred to it as an "atrocious duty".[2] The Ring was additionally responsible for the specific choice of Lift as a bond partner for Wyndle, a choice that he did not agree with. However, the Ring viewed Lift's youth and her experience with the Old Magic as positive traits in a candidate.[3] Wyndle found that bonding with Lift was easier than expected[6] and speculated that the Old Magic had caused her to exist partially in the Cognitive Realm.[7] Wyndle later accepted the fact that he had needed to be sent on an assignment.[8]
