Could I have you write the name of-- or the intent of the Shard that's hiding on it's uninhabited world away from everybody?
Brandon Sanderson
Mostly because I don't want to canonize these things and so I get locked into it and the decision is absolutely made. I haven't changed many of them, but I have tweaked them before. I've tweaked like how I wanted to represent the intent, so...

Give us the name of a Shard's intent we have not seen before.
Brandon Sanderson
There is one who just wants to hide and survive.

I've heard about a Shard that just wants to survive, hiding off-- it doesn't have a planet it doesn't--
Brandon Sanderson
Right.

--out there in space, trying to survive. Does it have the intent of like Fear, or something like that?
Brandon Sanderson
The intent is related but only tangentially. Mostly it just knows what's going on and is smart enough to get out of there.

Can you give us the intent of the hide and survive Shard, or as an alternative give us the name of another Shardholder?
Brandon Sanderson
No. I gave you something good, you got a good one.

In May, in Germany, you told me that... or I asked whether Wisdom was a Shard, and you said it was or something like it, and that wisdom was close to an intent of a Shard, and you also told me that it has realized that survival isn't necessarily the most important thing for it. I wanted to ask whether it has realized that over time or was it from the get go?
Brandon Sanderson
Over time.
Paleo
Okay, so then naturally, my next question: Is it the survival Shard?
Brandon Sanderson
RAFO.
Paleo
And then somebody actually came up with another good probable name. Is Prudence close?
Brandon Sanderson
Prudence sounds an awful lot like a Shard name. That's some excellent theorizing there.

What happened with the Shard that just drifts in the space, the one that wants to hide and survive?
Brandon Sanderson
What about that Shard? They want to hide and survive.
DrogaKrolow
Huh, something more?
Brandon Sanderson
I think I will RAFO that for right now.
