Odium's first target was [[Ambition]], as he feared that it would be a threat to him. However, while searching for Ambition, he encountered the Shards [[Devotion]] and [[Dominion]] on [[Sel]] and attacked them,{{wob ref|1550}} likely because he could argue they had violated the Vessel's pact to not interfere with each other.{{epigraph ref|sa3|37}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|39}}{{wob ref|8358}} In the ensuing battle, Odium successfully splintered Devotion and Dominion and killed their Vessels, Aona and Skai.{{au ref|Sel}} In order to ensure that no one could take up their Shards, he then somehow moved most of their Investiture from the Spiritual Realm into the Cognitive Realm, which made the [[Expanse of the Densities|Selish Congnitive Realm]] incredibly dangerous and the Selish Invested Arts location-dependent.{{wob ref|9616}}{{au ref|Sel}}{{wob ref|4129}}
 
Sometime after he splintered Devotion and Dominion, Odium finally found Ambition, who had settled in the [[Threnodite system]]. Odium attacked and mortally wounded Ambition, though the Shard fled and was ultimately Splintered elsewhere,{{au possiblyref|Threnody}} byin anothera causebattle with Odium and [[Mercy]].{{auepigraph ref|Threnodysa4|27}} ChunksThese clashes resulted in a wound in the Spiritual Realm and left ripped-off chunks of Ambition's power were ripped off in thisthe Threnodite clashsystem, which twisted the people and planet of [[Threnody]].{{au ref|Threnody}}{{epigraph ref|sa4|27}}
 
{{image|Odium - XV the Devil.jpg|[[Odium]] and the [[Fused]]|side=right|width=200px}}
As a result, Odium has since been waging a war to free himself from whatever binds him to the system so that he can continue his quest. To that end, he Splintered off pieces of his power to create the [[Fused]],{{book ref|sa3|38}} the [[Unmade]],{{wob ref|9207}} and [[voidspren]],{{au ref|Roshar}} and also Invested in the Rosharan system enough to create and grant access to Invested Art known as [[Voidbinding]].{{wob ref|1540}} When the Fused first appeared, Honor created the [[Herald]]s, who could seal the Fused on [[Braize]], though the Fused tortured the Heralds into allowing them to return to [[Roshar]]. Every time a Herald broke, a [[Desolation]] would begin and the Heralds and [[Knights Radiant]] would fight the Fused until they could be sealed on Braize again. This situation continued for millennia and the Shards remained at a stalemate.{{book ref|sa3|38}} As a result of his past clashes with Shards, Odium has "scars that do not heal," which makes him more careful about future engagements.{{book ref|sa3|16}}
 
At least someMany of the other Shards are aware of Odium's actions, though most do not seem to consider him a problem, as long as he remains bound to the Rosharan system.{{epigraph ref|sa4|30}} [[Endowment]] is currently indifferent to him and thinks he was justified in Splintering the Shards he did;{{epigraph ref|sa3|37}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|40}} she also believes she could "deal" with him if he becomes an issue.{{epigraph ref|sa3|41}} One of [[Autonomy]]'s avatars, [[Patji (being)|Patji]], also expressed indifference,{{wob ref|12761}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|46}} though he did indicate that a different avatar might be more receptive.{{epigraph ref|sa3|47}} There is also a [[Survival Shard|Shard who just wants to survive]] that is aware of Odium's goals and is "smart enough" to stay away.,{{wob ref|326}} though they have realized over time that may not be the best course of action.{{wob ref|12684}}{{wob ref|13231}} [[Harmony]], who only became aware of the threat around the time of the [[True Desolation]], is deeply concerned about Odium,{{epigraph ref|sa4|31}} but is unable to do much because of the conflicting nature of his powers.{{epigraph ref|sa3|55}} In a letter to [[Hoid]], however, he did suggest that [[Valor]] might share some of his concern.{{epigraph ref|sa4|25}}
 
=== The Ascension of Harmony ===
 
=== Trell and Scadrial ===
Around three hundred years after the [[Catacendre]], the [[kandra]] [[Paalm]] used a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic spike]] made of an [[trellium|unknown metal]] to hide herself from Harmony. After Bleeder's death, [[Marasi Colms]] connected this metal to the entity [[Miles Dagouter]] named just before he died, [[Trell (Trellism)|Trell]].{{book ref|mb5|epilogue}} When [[Waxillium Ladrian]] died, Harmony showed him a red haze of "dread and destruction" surrounding [[Scadrial]], held back by a thin strip of light.{{book ref|mb6|28}} Harmony does not fully understand this, but it is another Shard manifesting its power on Scadrial,{{wob ref|6261}} most likely [[Autonomy]] or [[Odium]].{{article ref|Trell (Trellism)#Theories & Speculation}}
 
== Worldhoppers ==
Some people who are aware of the broader cosmere have learned how to travel between planets and are known as worldhoppers. Since space in the Cognitive Realm is linked to how people think about that region, most of outer space is extremely compressed in the Cognitive Realm.{{wob ref|1392}} Therefore, if one could shift from the Physical to the Cognitive Realm, they could quickly travel between planets. The most common method for transfer to the Cognitive Realm is by going through a [[perpendicularity]], though it is also possible with the [[Surgebinding#Transportation|Surge of Transportation]].{{wob ref|1525}} Travel is also possible through the Physical Realm, though it takes a long time without faster-than-light travel,{{wob ref|12901}} which all planets could develop, though [[Scadrial]] is expected to take the lead on.{{wob ref|3453}}{{wob ref|3912}} It may also be possible to worldhop using the Spiritual Realm.{{wob ref|9307}}{{wob ref|13110}}
 
In total, the number of people traveling between planets probably numbers somewhere in the thousands.{{wob ref|9501}} Some of these people are involved in the broader events of the cosmere, but many just want to immigrate to another planet.{{wob ref|12724}} There is no universal language that all worldhoppers speak,{{wob ref|1136}} though some can use [[Connection]] to speak local languages.{{wob ref|1021}} These worldhoppers drive a thriving interplanetary trade system that includes the trade of mundane objects from different worlds,{{book ref|sa4|29}}{{book ref|sa4|75}}{{wob ref|8650}}{{wob ref|10807}} rare items like paintings from the [[Court of the Gods]],{{book ref|sa3|102}} and at least one courier service.{{wob ref|12907}} The most important commodity, however, is Investiture, though it is difficult to transport off of its home world as it is strongly Connected to that world and its Shard.{{book ref|sa4|13}} Planets are not equally easy to access through the Cognitive Realm—Nalthis is easier to get to than most and even has customs for travelers to go through; Sel is incredibly dangerous due to the power of Devotion and Dominion being stuck in the Cognitive Realm; Roshar can be welcoming or dangerous, depending on the era; Scadrial was relatively easy to access and had a stable mercantile system before [[Kelsier]] destroyed the [[Pits of Hathsin]] and rendered [[Ruin's Perpendicularity]] unusable for transferring between the Physical and Cognitive Realms;{{wob ref|9501}}{{msh ref|2|1}} and Taldain is inaccessible as [[Autonomy]] has closed it off from the rest of the cosmere,{{au ref|Taldain}} though some of its sand has made it off-world.{{book ref|sa4|84}}{{book ref|sa3|67}}
 
=== Hoid ===
|[[Hoid]] on his opposition to [[Odium]]{{epigraph ref|sa1|28}}
}}
 
Hoid is a mysterious worldhopper who has been alive since before the Shattering of Adonalsium and was present for that event.{{wob ref|5077}} He has collected a variety of Invested items from around the cosmere and gained access to multiple Invested Arts.{{wob ref|5077}}{{article ref|Hoid#Abilities}} His long-term goals are unclear, but he is an adamant opponent of Odium's attempts to become the sole god of the cosmere. He has written to [[Frost]], [[Endowment]], [[Autonomy]], and [[Harmony]], hoping to enlist their help in dealing with Odium, though only Harmony has responded positively.{{article ref|Letters}} He has some ability to manipulate [[Fortune]], which lets him learn where and when he needs to be to advance his goals, though he often doesn't know why being somewhere is important.{{wob ref|2567}}{{book ref|sa2|67}}
