They can force spren to do things that they do not want to do.~~ ==History== ~~==Previous actions==~~ The cultivationspren decided to start trying to form new [[Nahel bond]]s after other [[spren]] such as the [[Cryptic]]s and the [[honorspren]] started to do so.{{book ref\|sa2.5\|2}} As they were not sure how exactly to accomplish this due to the length of time since the [[Recreance]],{{book ref\|sa2.5\|2}} the Ring served as a committee{{wob ref\|1384}} that oversaw the process.{{book ref\|sa2\|i\|9}} They were responsible for [[Wyndle]]'s choice of [[Lift]] as a bond-partner. This was based on the fact that Lift had previously visited the [[Nightwatcher]].{{book ref\|sa2\|i\|9}} They thought it would be easier to bond somebody partially in the Cognitive Realm. They may be attempting to reform the [[Knights Radiant]] by forming bonds with humans {{cite}}. ===Wyndle's Assignment=== Wyndle was happily living in Shadesmar when the Ring chose him to try and form a Nahel bond with someone in the [[Physical Realm]]. He was not happy about his mission and referred to it as an "atrocious duty".{{book ref\|sa2.5\|1}} The Ring was additionally responsible for the specific choice of [[Lift]] as a bond partner for Wyndle, a choice that he did not agree with. However, the Ring viewed Lift's youth and her experience with the [[Old Magic]] as positive traits in a candidate.{{book ref\|sa2\|i\|9}} Wyndle found that bonding with Lift was easier than expected{{book ref\|sa2.5\|2}} and speculated that the Old Magic had caused her to exist partially in the [[Cognitive Realm]].{{book ref\|sa2.5\|4}} Wyndle later accepted the fact that he had needed to be sent on an assignment.{{book ref\|sa2.5\|14}} == Notes == <references /> {{complete\|[[User:Big Smooth\|Big Smooth]] ([[User talk:Big Smooth\|talk]]) 14:22, 12 July 2019 (MST)}} ~~{{partial}}~~ {{Stormlight}}
