It is not known how seons communicate with other seons, but it can theorised that they do so through the shadesmar?
== Original Content ==
'''Seons''' were magical servants of unknown origin on [[Sel]]. They took the form of floating orbs, each with a glowing [[Aon]] at their core that they were named for. Always loyal to their masters.
Seons acted as advisers as well as they provided a face-to-face communication with other people through their connections with other Seons. Seons lived for a very long time. [[Seon Ashe|Ashe]] had served [[Sarene]]'s family for over two centuries.{{ref|b|e|c|5}}
Seons could be Passed to another. Usually this occurred within families{{ref|b|e|c|5}}, but they could be passed to anyone.{{ref|b|e|c|34}}
During the time of the [[Reod]], a Seon whose master fell victim to the [[Shaod]] lost sentience, and made its way to [[Elantris]] where it proceeded to "wander" aimlessly and silently. Rarely a Reod Seon might have shown some unconscious recognition of their Elantrian master, but only through classically conditioned actions, not communication. Additionally, if closely inspected, the [[Aon]] of a Seon who had lost their master to the [[Shaod]] would appear to be patchy and incomplete.{{ref|b|e|c|16|p|174}}
After the restoration of [[Elantris]]' magic and the completion of the Shaod, the Seons recovered their sanity and returned to their former state, though they were unable to remember the time they passed while the Shaod was incomplete.
The origin of the Seons is under investigation at the end of Elantris.
Recently Brandon Sanderson told that the Aons inside the Seons are [[Splinter]]s of [[Devotion]].{{ref|?|949|5|Are the Aons at the heart of Seons shards of Devotion?}}
