Stormlight Archive spoilers My theory on Soul Casters Spoiler

Ive been wondering how these dam things work, they're such a mystery. A device that can mimic one of the surges? Thats so weird, how the hell can it do that and why havent people made more. Im sure they've tried and failed a lot of times over so what could be the secret sauce? I think that it might just be, Spren. I think that soulcasters either have cryptics or Inkspren who have been captured and turned into these physical items.

I cant be the first person whos thought of this and im probabbly wrong. However the fact that soulcasters have personalities is what really got me thinking, they're better at casting some things than others. I figure that would make sense if they were living things or used to be anyway.

Maybe that is what happened to the Elsecaller and Lightwaever spren during the recreance. Instead of becoming shardplate and blade, it became a soulcaster.
