Worldhopping is possible in several ways: the first is to travel via space (since all the cosmere is in a dwarf galaxy) using Allomancy and Feruchemy, or AonDor (as it is used at the end of Elantris to fast travel.) theThe other is to travel to the [[Cognitive Realm]] using some ability of their magic system.

Only one magic system, [[Surgebinding]], has been confirmed to allow access to the Cognitive Realm. However all Shardworlds have their own ways of reaching it.{{qa ref|585|8}} Since Galladon and Demoux are somehow able to worldhop, it is likely that [[AonDor]] and [[Allomancy]] or one of the other [[Metallic Arts]] allows access to the Cognitive Realm. This is further confirmed by the fact that someone from [[Scadrial]] accessing [[Shadesmar]] is a plot point for a future book.{{qa ref|700|6}}
Once a person is in the Cognitive Realm, provided they have the knowledge of how to do so, they can worldhop wherever they want.{{17s ref|post|42113}} The exact process for worldhopping is unknown, beyond the fact that it requires leaving the [[Physical Realm]].{{qa ref|585|8}} At some point in Sel's distant past, [[Odium]] killed the [[Vessel]]s of both Devotion and Dominion and Splintered the two Shards.{{article ref|The Letter}} The collective power of the Splintered Shards became somehow trapped in the [[Cognitive Realm]], and is now what Selish people call the [[Dor]].{{book ref|arcanum unbounded}}
 
At some point in Sel's distant past, [[Odium]] killed the [[Vessel]]s of both Devotion and Dominion and Splintered the two Shards.{{article ref|The Letter}} The collective power of the Splintered Shards became somehow trapped in the [[Cognitive Realm]], and is now what Selish people call the [[Dor]].{{book ref|arcanum unbounded}} Because of this, while travel to Sel is possible via the Cognitive Realm (for example, one can use a [[Perpendicularity]] that exists in the form of [[The Lake|a pool of sapphire-colored liquid]] near Elantris), the raging uncontrolled power of the Dor makes travel in that manner "really tough"{{qa ref|977|11}}{{17s ref|post|408044}}.
