While some people do object to that usage, it's not clear it's wrong and has been used both historically and more recently (see e.g. https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/can-you-use-comprised-of-grammar). For the Coppermind, I think it's fine to take a descriptivist approach, accept that "to be comprised of" is used widely, and not worry about finding and "fixing" all articles that use it. Likewise, I don't see any value in insisting on switching this instance back to "comprise." :)
(→Appearance and Anatomy: Incorrect use of the word 'comprise'. (Common misconception - comprise means to be composed of, and it is never grammatically correct to say 'is comprised of'.)) |

== History ==
The Sleepless lived in Aimia prior to the [[Scouring of Aimia]], which has been characterized by [[Hessi]] as "total destruction".{{epigraph ref|sa3|113}} They coexisted with the [[Siah Aimian]]s, but are not related to them.{{wob ref|5479}} Dysian Aimians exist on other planets in the [[cosmere]]{{wob ref|11778}} and have traveled between them in the past,{{wob ref|12222}} so it is not clear if their true origin is Roshar.
=== Heraldic Epochs ===
The Sleepless have a long history with the [[Herald]]s and [[Knights Radiant]].{{ref|text=[[The Way of Kings#Cover Synopsis|''The Way of Kings'' cover synopsis]]}} Some Sleepless were once able to use the power of [[Surgebinding]].{{ref|text=[[Oathbringer#Cover Synopsis|''Oathbringer'' cover synopsis]]}} At least some of the Sleepless, including Arclo,{{book ref|sa2.5|18}} were allies of the Heralds and Knights Radiant during the [[Heraldic Epochs]]. Arclo tells [[Lift]] that others of his kind are particularly interested in Radiants.{{book ref|sa2.5|18}} At least one Dysian Aimian may have fought during [[Aharietiam]], as [[Dalinar Kholin]] notices a heap of burned, strange cremlings in one of [[Dalinar's visions|his visions]];{{book ref|sa3|42}} it is not clear which side they fought on.
