'''Realmatic Theory''' refers to the structure of the [[Cosmere]]. There are three realms, Physical, Spiritual, and Cognitive. In the preface to Chapter 57 in [[The Hero of Ages]], Sazed writes, "I have come to see that each power has three aspects: a '''physical''' one, which can be seen in the creations made by Ruin and Preservation; a '''spiritual''' one in the unseen energy that permeates all of the world; and a '''cognitive''' one in the minds which controlled that energy."
There are three realms: Physical, Spiritual, and Cognitive.

==Physical Realm==
All of Brandon's published works take place almost exclusively in the '''Physical Realm. Of the three realms, it is the most readily understood, as it behaves in much the same way as our world does'''.

==Spiritual Realm==
All that is currently known about the '''Spiritual Realm''' is that it is the site of the afterlife in the Cosmere (at least for people from [[Scadrial]], and likely for the rest of the Cosmere as well), and that when they are not in use, [[Shardblade]]s are stored there.

==Cognitive Realm==
Extremely little is known about the '''Cognitive Realm'''. Brandon tends to be rather close-lipped on the subject.
 
===Shadesmar===
It has been speculated that [[Shadesmar]], seen briefly in [[The Way of Kings]], is a part of the Cognitive Realm. Little is known about Shadesmar. Its very existence was one of Brandon's best-kept secrets until the release of The Way of Kings.
