“At this point, the bulk of the Investiture that made up the powers of Dominion and Devotion is trapped on the Cognitive Realm. Collectively, these powers—which have a polarized relationship—are called the Dor. Forced together as they are, trapped and bursting to escape, they power the various forms of magic on Sel, which are multitude. ”
Se denomina el Dor a la fuente de energía espiritual existente en Sel que alimenta las Artes Investidas de este planeta,[1] incluidos el AonDor, ChayShan, la Falsificación,[2] Dakhor,[3] y el Sellado de sangre.[4]
Apariencia
El Dor, con frecuencia, muestra su presencia a través de un leve resplandor luminoso, bien sean seones, aones, los nudos de los huesos de los monjes dakhor, la estela de los movimientos de alguien utilizando el ChayShan, o en el Dor purificado que está en posesión de los Sangre Espectral.[5]
Composición y naturaleza
El Dor es una masa de una substancia similar al plasma[6] que se encuentra en el Reino Cognitivo, una cantidad enorme de poder dejado allí tras la visita de Odium a Sel hace milenios.[7][8] Es el remanente de los poderes combinados de Devoción y Dominio tras el Astillamiento de ambas Esquirlas.[9][10] Como se ha dicho, el Dor existe en el Reino Cognitivo y es muy peligroso, tratándose de una enorme fuente de poder que existe sin una mente que la controle.[7] Debido a su existencia en el Reino Cognitivo durante milenios, esta fuente de poder ha desarrollado una suerte de emociones rudimentarias.[11] Además, esto ha moldeado la naturaleza de los sistemas de magia existentes en el planeta, haciendo que cada uno de ellos sea muy dependiente de la localización, geografía, «Intención» y «Percepción», más que en otros sistemas propios de otros mundos.[7]
Esta limitación geográfica se puede circunvalar transportando Dor purificado a otras localizaciones.[5][12]
The programming-esque way Investiture is drawn from the Dor is the result of the fact that its power is trapped in the Cognitive Realm, as well as the personalities of the original Vessels of Devotion and Dominion and the nature of Sel's focus: forms.[13] Those that use the Dor can sense when others are using it.[14]
There is a God Metal that comes from the Dor.[15]
With a proper conduit, such as certain active Aons, Nightblood could feed on the Dor. They would, however, likely consume the Investiture of the conduit before consuming a significant amount of the Dor,[16][17] and, if given more stable access to the Dor, would still likely become saturated with Investiture before absorbing an appreciable amount of the Dor.[18][19]
Cultura
In Jesker, a religion practiced by many Dulas, the Dor is the overspirit, an unseen energy that permeates the world. They believe that Dor is a force that controls the world. Those who follow the Jesker think that the Dor leads those who understand it towards harmony.[20] It also keeps balance in the natural world. The followers of Jeskeri think that the Dor provides the motivation for all events in nature. It is responsible for everything from water "wanting" to flow downhill to teaching captive young birds how to fly.[21] The Jeskeri Mysteries, a splinter group, look at the Dor in a slightly different way. Instead of a simple passive energy, they see the Dor as fate. The people who follow the Mysteries perform rituals to try to harness the Dor, instead of trying to become in harmony with it like regular followers of the Jesker. They try to invoke it to bring good or bad luck on other people. How the followers of the Jesker became aware of the Dor's presence is still unknown.
