Glys is a corrupted spren bonded to Renarin, whose unusual nature makes Navani uncomfortable. Rather than appearing openly, Glys prefers to hide within Renarin. The text offers no more complete account of the spren’s history or fate.

Description

Glys is a corrupted spren bonded to Renarin, but the text does not establish a definite visible form, color, or set of features. Glys tends to hide within Renarin, making its presence more elusive than embodied. Its corruption and the unease it inspires are the only clear visual-adjacent impressions.
