{{for|Cognitive Realm}}
The '''Cognitive Realm''' is the world of thought and perception.{{msh ref|2|1}} It is also referred to as the subastral, and is known locally on [[Roshar]] as '''[[Shadesmar]]''', though at least some academics of [[Silverlight]] have taken to using the term to refer to the entire Realm.{{wob ref|3010}} The nature and appearance of objects in this Realm are shaped by the views of people and even the objects themselves. The environment itself changes from one world to the next, often exhibiting features characteristic of that world.{{wob ref|11688}} [[Investiture]], including that within souls, glows visibly within the Cognitive Realm.
=== Perpendicularities ===

|In general, perpendicularities are created by the presence of a Shard on the planet. The concentration of so much Investiture on the Cognitive and Physical Realms creates points of ... friction, where a kind of tunneling exists. At these points, Physical matter, Cognitive thought, and Spiritual essence become one—and a being can slide between Realms.
