Cultivation is one of the sixteen Shards of Adonalsium.[1] It is unknown who holds the Shard, but Cultivation is female.[1] She is located on Roshar, and originally came to that planet with Honor, before Odium arrived there.[2] She is still alive,[3] and was romantically involved with Honor.[4]

Abilities

Honor says that Cultivation is much better at seeing the future than he was.[1]

Influence

Spren are either of Cultivation, of Honor, or a combination of the two.[5]

In Words of Radiance, mankind is referred to by some spren as 'sons of Honor'. This could suggest that Spren are not part of Honor.

It has been theorized that Cultivation is the reason why Shinovar is so strange compared to the rest of Roshar.

Theories and Speculation

This page or section deals with theories or speculation.
Please read carefully and note that this is not necessarily canonical.

Old Magic and the Nightwatcher

With the lack of information on Cultivation, speculation runs rampant of what her influence may be. With Honor dead and Splintered, as well as Odium's influence in the Voidbringers, it is possible Cultivation or one of her servants is the Nightwatcher, and that she is responsible for the Old Magic. As the Nightwatcher is referred to as both male[6] and female,[7] its gender cannot be used to prove a connection to Cultivation.

Name of Holder

It has been thought that Reya, who was said to have shed a single tear and had a star named after it, may be the name of Cultivation's holder.[8]
