Alai is a scholar that studies spren who lives on Roshar during the Era of Solitude.[1]
Alai claimes that spren were fragments of the Powers of Creation, which is a common opinion among scholars.[2] She also studies spren that have gained sentience, such as the Nightwatcher.[1] Alai claims that the Nightwatcher is one of these, and that it is definitely female, contrary to Alethi folktales.
Shallan Davar reads some of Alai's work while studying sentient spren.[1][2]
