The Sibling was
The Sibling was somehow the key to certain magical aspects of the tower city of Urithiru that served as the base of the [[Knights Radiant]]. Notably, the Sibling's presence was linked to the climate of the city, allowing the temperature to stay unnaturally warm given Urithiru's elevation. This allowed the Radiants to cultivate crops in the city to sustain the large population there.{{epigraph ref|sa3|68}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|69}} At some point, the Sibling began to withdraw from the tower. The Sibling's withdrawal caused some—but not all— of the city's magical systems to fail; it soon became uninhabitable, and the Radiants were forced to abandon the city.{{epigraph ref|sa3|65}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|69}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|72}} It is not clear why the Sibling disengaged with mankind; an Elsecaller who left notes in the gem archive argued that the spren's disappearance was neither intentional nor a result of internal strife among the [[Knights Radiant]].{{epigraph ref|sa3|68}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|69}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|70}} The Sibling was wounded by the imprisonment of [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]]; this wound resulted in the Sibling losing the rhythm of [[Towerlight]], which in turn stopped [[Urithiru]] functioning.{{book ref|sa4|49}}
After the Sibling's departure, they were not hiding but rather "slumbering" in the millennia following the abandonment of Urithiru and the [[Recreance]].{{book ref|sa3|111}} The Stormfather has generally been reticent to discuss the Sibling with [[Dalinar]] because they were somehow harmed by mankind in the past.{{book ref|sa3|64}}{{book ref|sa3|111}}
