== History ==
=== Creation ===
Seons were created by the Splintering of [[Devotion]], a [[Shard of Adonalsium]].{{wob ref|7103}}{{wob ref|4679}} [[Odium]] traveled to [[Sel]] and killed both [[Aona]] and [[Skai]], the [[Vessel]]s of Devotion and [[Dominion]].{{wob ref|7103}} After they were killed, their Shards' power was left in the [[Cognitive Realm]] and now forms the [[Dor]].{{wob ref|1625}} The seons are bits of Devotion's magic that became sapient.{{wob ref|3885}}{{au ref|sel}} They have counterparts formed from Dominion's magic known as the [[skaze]], and there are some similarities between the two groups.{{au ref|sel}} The presence of the uncontrolled power of two Shards makes the Cognitive Realm on Sel extremely dangerous, as the seons and skaze do not provide an adequate "release valve" unlike the [[spren]] on [[Roshar]].{{wob ref|4129}}
The people of [[Opelon]] and [[Teod]] do not know the true origin of the seons. The most common assumption is that they were created by Elantrians through AonDor,{{book ref|Elantris|12}}{{book ref|Elantris|34}} but there is no documented proof of this. Raoden realizes that this may be inaccurate, and plans to continue researching the origin of seons.{{book ref|Elantris|63}} The seons themselves have some awareness of their origin{{wob ref|3024}} but they do not appear to have shared this information with any humans.
