===Spren Bond===
Ryshadium have a symbiotic bond with [[spren]].{{au ref|rosharan}} This is a variant of the [[Nahel bond]] that turns humans into [[Surgebinder]]s.{{wob ref|14509}} The specific type of spren that bonds with them is unclear, although it could be [[musicspren]] as they have been seen around the Ryshadium even when there is no music playing.{{book ref|sa3|26}} The Ryshadium becomes significantly more intelligent—nearly sapient—and somewhat more resilient, while the spren is pulled into the Physical Realm.{{au ref|roshar}}{{wob ref|14456}}{{wob ref|14458}} Ryshadium and humans are among the few non-native species on Roshar to have developed a spren bond.{{wob ref|10499}} They go to the [[Beyond]] upon dying.{{wob ref|8313}}
The spren bond maked them more intelligent than any normal animal.{{wob ref|14456}} Their intelligence and understanding can be seen in their relationships with their riders. Human riders will often carry on conversations with Ryshadium and the horses will seemingly answer, either through body language or sounds such as snorts.{{book ref|sa1|15}}{{book ref|sa3|10}}{{book ref|sa2|26}}
