'''Silverlight'''<br>
[[File:Khriss.jpg|thumb|right|140px|<center>Khriss by {{a|botanicaxu}}</center>]]
[[Silverlight]] is a city in the [[Cognitive Realm]] with both worldhoppers and long-term residents as well as at least one university.{{wob ref|2555}}{{wob ref|3310}} The researcher [[Khriss]], the most knowledgeable person in the cosmere and author of the [[Ars Arcanum|Ars Arcana]],{{wob ref|5623}}{{wob ref|6873}} is associated with Silverlight and at least one university there;{{wob ref|8342}} her employee, [[Nazrilof|Nazh]], who, among other things, draws and annotates maps, and collects other things for Khriss likely has ties there as well.{{wob ref|5623}}{{wob ref|5341}} They seem to beare researchers,{{msh ref|3|1}} like the Seventeenth Shard, though their relationship with that group is unclear.

The [[Ire]] areis a group of worldhopping [[Elantrian]]s. They existed prior to the [[Reod]] and were off-world when it occurred, which my have played a role in allowing them to weather it.{{wob ref|10476}} Their objectives are unclear, though they did attempt to Ascend one of their members as the Vessel of Preservation after Leras died.{{msh ref|5|2}} At that time, they were at least associated with a group whose forces were containing the [[Shade]]s of [[Threnody]].{{msh ref|5|2}}
 
'''The Ghostbloods'''<br>
The [[Ghostbloods]] areis a secret society on Roshar. Unlike other groups, they are not entirely comprised of worldhoppers. However, some of their high-ranking members are worldhoppers, including one who was born in Silverlight.{{wob ref|1394}}{{wob ref|12733}}

Kandra
In total, the number of people traveling between planets probably numbers somewhere in the thousands.{{wob ref|9501}} Most, if not all, of the [[Five Scholars]] of Nalthis were worldhoppers and are well-regarded by the cosmere-aware scholarly community as pioneers of the study of Investiture and Realmatic Theory.{{wob ref|1548}} After learning from one of the Scholars, [[Vasher]], [[Vivenna]] became a worldhopper as well.{{wob ref|8511}} Additionally, there are several [[kandra]] from [[Scadrial]] who have become worldhoppers,{{wob ref|5990}} likely to help [[Sazed]] figure out the dynamics of the cosmere. In addition, there is a thriving interplanetary trade system, the quality of which depends on the planets involved—Nalthis is easy to get to and even has customs for travelers to go through; Sel is incredibly dangerous due to the power of Devotion and Dominion being stuck in the Cognitive Realm; Roshar can be welcoming or dangerous, depending on the era; and Scadrial was relatively easy to access and had a stable mercantile system before [[Kelsier]] destroyed the [[Pits of Hathsin]] and rendered [[Ruin's Perpendicularity]] unusable for transferring between the Physical and Cognitive Realms.{{wob ref|9501}}{{msh ref|2|1}}
