Another power related to the Bondsmiths is the ability to create{{book ref|sa4|107}} and view immersive real-seeming visions{{book ref|sa1|18}} of events real and imagined.{{book ref|sa1|75}} It is uncertain whether this ability is exclusive to the Stormfather's Bondsmith. For the Stormfather's Bondsmith this is an ability that progresses with the ideals. Initially the Bondsmith is brought into the visions each storm without their consent,{{book ref|sa1|18}} and the visions may be confusing and difficult to understand at first,{{book ref|sa1|75}} acting out their actions inside the visions in real life as well.{{book ref|sa1|19}} As time progresses, they later may cease having to act out the visions. While eventually the Bondsmith may enter a vision at any point, he may only bring along others who are inside of a highstorm.{{book ref|sa3|28}}
