Exploring Midnight Essence and Light Weaving

Delving deep into Brandon's words, the chapter discusses the expansive nature of Midnight Essence, linking it to a Cosmere-wide force through Midnight Spores and Tress's bond. It explores the intricate connections of light weaving to light, sound, and matter, hinting at deeper magical understanding through examples like Shalan's actions. Speculations on cognitive shadows, aeons, and the power hierarchy in the Cosmere drive the chapter's exploration of nightblood, nightmares, investiture, and the natural magic of Rishar.
