The '''Intent''' of a [[Shard]] of [[Adonalsium]] is the primary purpose or motivation of that Shard. The name of each Shard reflects that [[Shard]]'s intent, for example the [[Shard]] [[Ruin]]'s primary motivation is cause things to be destroyed. == The Effect of a Shard's Intent on the Holder == Over a long period of time, a [[Shardholder]]'s mind begins to be molded to its intent.{{qa ref\|1011\|3}} {{qa ref\|1083\|7}} The best evidence we have of this is in the [[Mistborn (series)\|Mistborn series]], with [[Ruin]]/[[Ati]]: {{quote ~~{{quote~~\|Ruin's consciousness—separate from his power—isn't a particularly nice being. But you can't much blame him, as there's very little that is left of the mind that once was. The force of Ruin has pretty well molded the mind to fit with the force's intent.~~\|THoA Annotations, Chapter 57{{annotation ref\|mb3\|chapter=57}}}}~~ \|THoA Annotations, Chapter 57{{annotation ref\|mb3\|chapter=57}} }} We also see this mentioned again in [[the Letter]]: This effect seems to be because of the interaction between the [[Shard]] and its holder: {{quote ~~{{quote~~\|Ruin knows how to play off the lusts of mankind. Lust makes sense to Ruin, as he has lusts himself. He needs to destroy. It's part of who he is and what makes him function. It's the driving force of the power upon which his consciousness feeds to remain alive.~~\|THoA Annotations, Chapter 58{{annotation ref\|mb3\|chapter=58}}}}~~ \|THoA Annotations, Chapter 58{{annotation ref\|mb3\|chapter=58}} }} == Future Sight ==
