Ascendant spirits came into existence through the interactions of the Primordial Spirits, emerging not directly from the void, but from the merging of elements and the dreams of awareness. As the primordial spirits—beings like [[Daathir]] and [[Awenlas]]—contemplated, envisioned, and shaped reality, new phenomena arose. These phenomena solidified into entities: the ascendant spirits.
As the primordial spirits gained consciousness and began shaping reality, new ideas and concepts arose. These phenomena became, overrtime, the ascendant spirits.  


There are two primary categories of ascendant origin:
Some ascendant spirits arise from the tangible convergence of primordial elements. These include spirits such as [[Arenam]] (sand and desert) and [[Tahrnath]] (volcanoes and magma) with each representing physical phenomena or environments shaped by combined elemental domains.


* Some ascendant spirits arise from the tangible convergence of elemental forces. These include spirits such as [[Arenam]] (sand and glass) or [[Tahrnath]] (magma)—each representing physical phenomena or environments shaped by combined elemental domains.
Other ascendant spirits emerge from the intangible. [[Soravet]] (knowledge), and [[Varunel]] (history/memory) are born from interplay between [[Daathir]] and [[Awenlas]] in additon to the other primordial spirits.
 
* Others emerge from the intangible interplay of awareness, emotion, and metaphysical structure. [[Soravet]] (knowledge), and [[Varunel]] (history of memory) are born from the inner qualities of of the primordial spirits.
 
Together, these Ascendant spirits represent the second layer of Adaran cosmology. They bring detail, complexity, and nuance to the world of Adaris—bridging the gap between fundamental existence and lived experience.

As [[the realms of Adaris]] stabilized, many Ascendant spirits moved outward into them, inhabiting specific domains. Their presence is generative, influencing environments, shaping terrain, and altering flora, fauna, and ambient spiritual conditions. In places where a spirit resides, ecosystems may shift to reflect its domain, and local cultures often evolve in alignment with its influence.

Some Ascendant spirits are bound to specific physical phenomena—deserts, reefs, frost plains—while others are tied to abstract principles like knowledge, sorrow, or memory.
