Each of the [[Shard]]s Invested in Roshar has its own rhythm, called a pure tone, which can be heard and sang by any [[singer]], and even humans, if taught to do so.{{book ref|sa4|68}}{{book ref|sa4|76}} Those rhythms can be altered slightly, allowing for harmonization of two of the tones. This harmonization is essential in creation of hybrid [[Lights]].{{book ref|sa4|76}}{{book ref|sa4|110}}
* Pure tone of [[Honor]] -- a vibrant beat, stately and controlled{{book ref|sa4|76}}
