Interview #1160: Shadows of Self-Oak Brook, IL, Entry #70

Question

The metals that were formed from Shards, like atium and lerasium. Are they somewhat naturally occurring, like in [?] of power, or are they specifically [?]?

Brandon Sanderson

They are somewhat naturally occurring.

Question

[Really? Even on other Shardworlds?

Brandon Sanderson

Oh. They could exist somewhere else. There are some special circumstances on Scadrial, but yes. The idea is that the pools are one state of this mythological matter.

Question

So if you have the physical state and the liquid state, is there a less liquid state? [what does this question even mean?] Because some of that’s being used.

Brandon Sanderson

Um… Oh. Yeah. Yeah. But, I mean, it’s such a drop in the bucket compared to the actual Shards. So that it is a statistically insignificant amount, but it is an amount.

Question

So Harmony’s pool, wherever it is is statistically larger than…

Brandon Sanderson

Yes.
