Remnant is always capitalized in the books.
A Remnant is what’s left behind when a sacred artist dies. It might need to be at the Iron stage or later when it dies, to form a Remnant.
Remnants are made of madra. Humans, sacred beasts, and sacred trees / plants leave a Remnant behind when they die. However, Dreadbeasts do not leave a Remnant, because in life, their spirit gets mangled up into their flesh.
A Remnant can be powerful, but it has only a fraction of the power it had in life. The Remnant from the Sage of the Endless Sword was quite powerful, but not nearly as strong as it was when corporeal.
A Remnant is not the person it once was. That person is gone. It’s only a faint echo of the Sacred Artist. However, in rare cases, enough of the original person can be recovered, as in the case of Emriss Silentborn, the Remnant Monarch, who was originally a sacred tree before it died.
Many sacred artists use a remnant to advance from Jade to Lowgold. Remnants are also used in Soulsmithing.
