'''Glys''' is
== Appearance and Personality ==
Glys
As a [[Shardblade]], Glys is long and thin, with almost no crossguard. There are ‘waving folds to the metal, like it had been forged’.{{book ref|sa3|10}}
Little is known of his personality, although Renarin describes him as excitable.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
== History ==
=== Enlightening ===
Glys was corrupted by Sja-Anat before bonding Renarin, though he does not remember this event very well.{{book ref|sa3|117}} Sja-Anat has referred to this process as '''Enlightening'''.{{book ref|sa3|97}}
=== Bonding Renarin ===
Although it is unclear precisely when Glys and Renarin formed the Nahel bond, the process is already underway when [[Adolin]] gifts Renarin with the [[Shardblade]] he won from [[Salinor Eved]]. The bond is also strong enough around this time for Renarin to be able to see visions of the [[Everstorm]]'s imminent arrival.{{book ref|sa3|10}}{{book ref|sa2|14}}
Renarin initially thought something was wrong with him when he was able to hear dead Shardblades screaming,{{book ref|sa3|10}} but eventually Glys explains to him that he is a Truthwatcher.
=== Refounding of the Knights Radiant ===
The bond with Glys makes Renarin one of the first four members of the refounded [[Knights Radiant]], along with [[Shallan]], [[Kaladin]], and [[Dalinar]].
While initially Glys was unsure if it was possible, he is able to manifest as a [[Shardblade]] not long after they arrive in Urithiru. Renarin shows this to Adolin, and returns his dead Shardblade to him.{{book ref|sa3|10}}
When Shallan is searching for [[Re-Shephir]] in the library of Urithiru, Renarin and Glys accompany her, along with Adolin and the rest of [[Bridge Four]]. Glys is frightened by the sense of wrongness and refuses to speak. {{book ref|sa3|29}}
Glys also helps Renarin in discovering the [[Urithiru gem archive|gem archive]] hidden in the library room of Urithiru. Due to their bond Renarin is able to see visions showing him how to find the gemstones hidden in wall compartments, as well as how the compartments could be opened and the gemstones accessed. {{book ref|sa3|117}}
During the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]], [[Jasnah]] tracks Renarin and Glys down to the Temple of [[Pailiah|Pailiah'Elin]]. This is the first time that Glys is visible to someone other than Renarin. Jasnah and her spren [[Ivory]] are able to verify that his appearance does not match that of a normal Truthwatcher spren, concluding that he had been corrupted.{{book ref|sa3|115}} Renarin, undergoing a fit, is shown visions of what he believes to be the future. Glys fears for their safety, as both of them see a sequence of images showing Jasnah killing Renarin with her Shardblade. During the same fit they see Dalinar giving in to [[Odium]] and kneeling before him. Upon seeing this, Glys expresses his sorrow to Renarin.{{book ref|sa3|117}} Jasnah, however, does not kill Renarin, which brings him to the realisation that the visions he and Glys see can be wrong. {{book ref|sa3|118}}
Later in the battle Renarin helps the [[Thaylen]] [[Shardbearer]] [[Hrdalm]] fight a [[thunderclast]]. After Renarin and Hrdalm subdue it, Glys shows Renarin how to dispel it using Stormlight.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
When Renarin and Glys approach the ramp to [[Thaylen City]]’s [[Oathgate]] to try and open it, a fit strikes him. He and Glys are able to see in the ensuing visions that a division of Kholin troops is about to arrive through the Oathgate, activated by [[Teft]], now a Knight Radiant.{{book ref|sa3|120}}
== Abilities and Attributes ==
Glys has the ability to hide himself, even from people who would normally be able to see invisible spren (such as [[Rock]]).
=== Nahel bond ===
Even as a corrupt Truthwatcher spren, Glys is able to grant Renarin access to the Surges of [[Progression]] and [[Illumination]]. It is unknown how many Ideals Renarin has spoken, but their bond has progressed to the point where he is able to summon Glys as a Shardblade.{{book ref|sa3|10}}
=== Other abilities ===
Due to Sja-Anat’s influence, the bond with Glys also gives Renarin the ability to see visions of the future (which is typically of Odium). These visions are often but not always accurate, and appear as sequences of stained glass panels on the walls or floors, sometimes with numbers or words beneath them. Neither Glys nor Renarin are able to control when these visions strike.{{book ref|sa3|117}}{{book ref|sa3|120}}
== Speculation ==
{{theory}}
▲It is possible that Glys is a corrupted [[keenspren]] (mentioned by [[Wyndle]] in [[Edgedancer]]) {{book ref|edgedancer|6}}
