The most dramatic form of Investiture that can be found on the planet is Sand Mastery which is located on Dayside, despite its flashy appearance it uses very little Investiture however and primarily works through subtle manipulations with [[Connection]] between the user, Shard and White Sand. It is believed by residents of Taldain that only Dayside was investedInvested by the Shard; however, this is incorrect, and in fact both parts of the world are investedInvested, with the majority of it falling on Dayside.{{au ref|Taldain}}
