Worldhopping in the Cosmere

Greetings Worldhopper! The Cosmere is full of amazing planets and cultures, and characters in-world want to see them all! Enter Worldhopping. This process is used by people known as worldhoppers to travel around the Cosmere. Worldhoppers can be found in books like Mistborn, The Way of Kings, the Stormlight Archive, Tress of the Emerald Sea, Warbreaker and even more of Brandon Sanderson’s works! The video will also be exploring how the space age of the Cosmere looks to be taking shape along with the methods by which people travel from planet from planet without utilizing the Cognitive realm, aka Shadesmar. This video will go over how people travel from planet from planet and explain what a perpendicularity is. I hope you enjoy the video.
