The only exception to this rule is on meta-pages for the books themselves (e.g., Wind and Truth). If you are unsure whether the information you want to add comes from pre-release content, please do not add it and instead ask about it on our Discord.

The one hint to its existence is a cryptic quote that Brandon signed in a book. Responding to the question "Give us the name of a Shard's intent we have not seen before," he wrote, "there is one who just wants to hide and survive."{{17s ref|topic|2652|Give us the name of a Shard's intent we have not seen before|date=09 December 2012}} Presumably, this refers to surviving [[Odium]]'s onslaught, where he [[Splintering|Splinter]]s—and kills—Shards. |

⚫ | The Shard's intent is only tangentially related to their desire to hide. The desire comes from their knowledge of events in the Cosmere.{{17s ref|post|392615|text=That shard is well aware of what is going on in the Cosmere, and is smart enough to try and just get away from it all.|date=Jan 26th, 2016}} |

Since then, the Shards [[Ambition]], [[Invention]], [[Mercy]], [[Valor]], [[Whimsy]], and [[Virtuosity]] have all been revealed; Ambition has already been Splintered by Odium and Virtuosity Splintered herself, but any of the other four could plausibly be this Shard.{{wob ref|15540}}{{ref|group=fn|text=While [[Bavadin]] was a known Vessel at the time, the Intent of her Shard was not yet known and her world had not been seen, so [[Autonomy]] could also possibly fit the question. However, it was later explicitly confirmed that this Shard is not Autonomy.{{wob ref|14939}}}} On the other hand, Brandon has implied that this Shard's intent may be similar to "Wisdom" or "Prudence".{{wob ref|12684}}{{wob ref|13231}}{{wob ref|15500}} |
