=== A Possible Third Continent ===
{{theory}}
The cosmere scholar [[Khriss]] talks of Sel's "three great domains" that are relatively dismissive of each other.{{au ref|Sel}} This implies a third yet unknown "great domain" aside from the two empires already mentioned. No other information is known about this third domain, though it is likely on another continent.
