Difference between revisions of "Spheres"

'''Spheres''' are the primary currency in most nations on [[Roshar]]. Each one consists of a [[gemstone]] encased in a glass bead. Gemstones, including the ones in spheres, can temporarily hold [[Investiture]] in the form of [[Stormlight]], offering both a source of light{{book ref|sa1|3}} and fuel for [[fabrial]]s{{cite}} and [[Surgebinding]]s.{{cite}} Like all gemstones, spheres naturally leak any Stormlight they have absorbed, over several days{{book ref|sa3|99}} - with larger denominations taking slightly longer.{{cite}} This has led to the practice of leaving spheres out in baskets and cages during highstorms so they can be recharged. The Rosharan terms for spheres full and empty of Stormlight are ''infused'' and ''dun'' respectively.
