(view spoiler)[Sorry if this has been answered before but how were the temples created? and are all of the crystal in the temples sentient? Also what defines a lesser attunements? Lastly could Corin make a lesser attunement with the current knowledge he has on fake attunements?

* The origins of the temples have not been revealed to our characters yet. For things like this, I prefer for readers to learn about them at the same time the characters do, since they're important mysteries of the setting. So, keep reading and you'll learn more.
* The same answer for the crystals - you'll have to keep reading to know if they all are, but multiple have already been revealed as sentient.
* "Lesser attunement" isn't a standardized technical term; it's basically referring to anything that might be an inferior copy, like an artificial attunement that doesn't have all the properties of a "real" one. As of AA3, Corin does not have the working knowledge to create one from scratch, but he's getting closer every day. (hide spoiler)]

Hello!!! No need to answer this-- just wanted to drop you a random message to say thank you for writing your wonderful books and that I hope you've been keeping well? (but replace that question mark with a punctuation that you like as this can't be sent without a question mark...)

As a follow-up to my magical construct question. Why is it all the characters that have experienced an option so far have a universal opinion on the matter when as far as I can tell from the world setting summoning and disposing of such entities are commonplace. Is there some kind of social movement that can attribute to all these characters with different backgrounds and experience coming to the same conclusions?
