Dominion is a Shard of Adonalsium.[1] Its original Shardholder was Skai.
Intent
Dominion.
Associated magic
Unknown, but suspected to be related to the Skaze.
Dominion and Devotion together make up the Dor. They did not work together, as Ruin and Preservation did, rather their Splintered remains merged in an unknown way and made the Dor. It is postulated that Dominion—meaning land, or country under control—is the reason only people of certain nationalities can access the Dor in certain ways. It is likely that being born in that country does not matter, it instead being related to feeling a devotion toward it. MaiPon people alone can use Forgery, and a map of MaiPon goes on the back of soulstamps. Only people of Aonic descent can be taken by the Shaod, but only if they are in Arelon at the time. Aons contain maps of Arelon as well.
Lore
The only known mention of Skai is in The Letter.
Before the events of Elantris, Skai was killed by Odium, and Dominion was Splintered.
