Jasnah can transport herself into and out of the Cognitive Realm, along with at least her clothing and small physical objects. Going all the way into the Cognitive Realm appears to require a greater degree of cooperation from Ivory and returning to the Physical Realm seems to require something more that going to the Cognitive does not.{{book ref|sa3|33}} It is unclear whether she can transport other people or object into Shadesmar, though she did retrieve Shallan from Shadesmar after her ward entered with not enough Stormlight available to return.{{book ref|sa1|70}}

===== The Expedition of the Wandersail =====
After the events of the Battle of Thaylen Field, Jasnah, as Queen of Alethkar, along with Dalinar, sent communications to various neutral nations in hopes of recruiting new allies for the coalition of Nations. One such letter was sent to the Ral-Na, King of the Reshi Isles, inviting the Reshi people to Urithuri to discuss an alliance. As the war waged on Jasnah and Dalinar suspected the enemy would launch a ground based invasion on Jah Keved by sailing an invasion force east, through the Reshi Isles. ({{Dawnshard ch|sa3.5|3)}}
 
Jasnah had direct involvement in monitoring the expedition of the Wondersail to Akinah. Ardent Rushu was in communication with Jasnah to report sightings of unusual spren and reported a cluster of luckspren following the Wondersail after Cord sighted them. After a Santhid corpse is found by the crew of the Wondersail, and is subsequently exposed as a fake, Jasnah is contacted by Vstim on behalf of Rysn asking about the legends of the Aimians. Jasnah recalls two theories on the nature of the Santhid that disintegrated into a pile of cremlings. The first being reports of Aimians being able to take off their arms and legs and reattach them. The second being an old story about creatures who were living heaps of cremlings. The story states that these creatures would hide and grow in the attics of buildings before devouring the occupants below. Jasnah originally overlooked these stories but due to the current events on Roshar at the time, cautioned Rysn against these types of creatures. ({{Dawnshard ch|sa3.5|9)}} When Rysn postulates that the santhid could have been the work of a Voidbringer Lightweaver, Jasnah chides herself for her own lapse in judgement, citing the newness of lightweaving magic as the reason for overlooking it as a possibility. Jasnah draws a conclusion from this statement saying that if an enemy lightweaver were attempting to stop the expedition, then the voidbringers would be taking considerable lengths to prevent them from reaching Akinah, and the secrets there must be more important than first believed.
