== Appearance and Personality ==
As a mistspren, Dreaming-though-Awake manifests in the [[Physical Realm]] as a shimmer of light on the wall reflected from a mirror.{{book ref|sa2.5|20}} In [[Shadesmar]], she chooses to manifest as a female made entirely of mist. Her face appears as a porcelain mask that always reflects a twinkling light and almost seems to be crystal from some perspectives; the lips remain stationary when she speaks. She wears a vest, trousers, and gloves that are made of white smoke as well but interact with her body as if it were physical.{{book ref|sa4|22}} When she walks, she seems to drift rather than to step.{{book ref|sa4|24}}
Dreaming-though-Awake has a personality that is somewhat off-putting to humans. She is fascinated by humans and even finds what questions they ask and what they think about to be revealing.{{book ref|sa4|22}}{{book ref|sa4|24}}
== Attributes and Abilities ==
Dreaming-though-Awake can speak multiple Rosharan languages and serves as a translator between Arshqqam and the [[Alethi]]. It is unclear if this is because she has learned the languages or if this is simply an aspect of her nature.{{book ref|sa4|21}}
By the nature of their [[Nahel bond|bond]], Dreaming-though-Awake and Arshqqam can use [[Stormlight]] to access the [[surge]]s of the [[Order of Truthwatchers]], [[Illumination]] and [[Progression]].{{book ref|sa4|part=ars}}
== History ==
=== Forming a Bond ===
Dreaming-though-Awake was born some time after the [[Recreance]].{{book ref|sa4|24}} Around 1174, she sought out [[Arshqqam]] in [[Yeddaw]] and bonded her. Using the powers of their bond, Arshqqam began healing the orphans who came to her [[Tashi's Light Orphanage|orphanage]].{{book ref|sa2.5|20}}
When [[Jasnah]] began investigating [[Renarin]], whose claim to be a [[Truthwatcher]] was suspect to her because of the appearance of his spren, Arshqqam was convinced to visit [[Azimir]] so that some of Jasnah's colleagues could make a drawing of Dreaming-though-Awake. The disparity convinced Jasnah that [[Glys]] was something different.{{book ref|sa3|104}}
=== Joining the Radiants ===
Arshqqam eventually felt impelled to leave [[Tashikk]] and join the rest of the [[Radiant]]s at [[Urithiru]]; once there, she and Dreaming-though-Awake were chosen to join the [[coalition of monarchs|coalition's]] diplomatic expedition to the [[honorspren]].{{book ref|sa4|20}} They transitioned to [[Shadesmar]] using Urithiru's [[Oathgate]] control building,{{book ref|sa4|21}} and Dreaming-though-Awake immediately began studying the humans. She asked [[Adolin]] for his opinion of her appearance, then interrogated him while he led [[Maya]] around introducing the rest of the party to her. When Adolin spoke with Arshqqam a little while later, Dreaming-though-Awake translated for her while Arshqqam spoke about [[Lift]] and her decision to leave Yeddaw.{{book ref|sa4|22}}

On the second day of their journey, [[Shallan]] sat on the barge sketching when she decided to try to capture Dreaming-though-Awake's odd appearance. The spren approached her and was disappointed to find just a sketch of herself, hoping to see a drawing of the [[Unmade]]. When Shallan eagerly plied Dreaming-though-Awake with questions regarding [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]], the mistspren had no answers her.{{book ref|sa4|24}}
Dreaming-though-Awake read the letters that Jasnah and [[Dalinar]] sent with the group to appeal to the honorspren and discussed them with Arshqqam; later, she translated as Arshqqam pointed out the flaws in their arguments. Citing Dreaming-though-Awake's observation that honorspren can be passionate, Arshqqam suggested that Adolin appeal to their sense of honor.{{book ref|sa4|34}}
When Adolin realized that the caravan of humans behind them had been waiting for a chance to attack [[Notum]], Adolin raced off to save him, leaving the rest of the group to follow as quickly as they could.{{book ref|sa4|35}} The rest of the group outpaced Arshqqam, Dreaming-though-Awake, and the [[Cryptic]]s, who only made it about halfway before meeting the rest of the party returning with Notum and Adolin.{{book ref|sa4|36}}
After Adolin, Shallan, Maya, and [[Pattern]] entered [[Lasting Integrity]], Arshqqam and Dreaming-though-Awake left with [[Zu (Roshar)|Zu]], [[Ua'pam]], and Adolin's soldiers to bring word of the situation to Dalinar.{{book ref|sa4|75}}
