'''The Alloy of Law''' is the fourth book set on [[Scadrial]] and takes place 300 years after the events of [[The Hero of Ages]].
The events from the [[Mistborn trilogy]] are now legend, history, and religion.
Wayne throws up a speed bubble just as the explosion bursts from the basket. While Wax argues with Wayne on an escape plan Wax realises he could increase his weight using his ironmind and break through to the floor below. Throwing Marasi on top of himself he pulls her down with him, Wayne following to land on both of them. They escape the explosion but Wayne is left badly burnt with so little of his goldmind remaining.
After surviving the assassination attempt, the three of them sneak out of the mansion and head for the location of the Vanishers hideout. There they find clues to the nature of their operations and a strong indicator as to who's leading them; [[Miles Dagouter]], or Miles "Hundredlives" as he's known. It is also made clear of Marasi's Allomantic power as a [[Pulser]] that Wax attempts to console her rather bitter feelings towards.
Meanwhile, Miles is talking to Tarson and [[Clamps]] when he is called in to see [[Mister Suit]], their mysterious benefactor. He berates Miles for failing at the Yomen party and losing so many men and equipment and Miles is forced to assure Suit that Wax will be dealt with.
In the Outer Estates, Wax investigates the scene of one of the Vanishers' robberies with Wayne imposing personal and what he probably thinks, important, questions on Marasi about her affection for Wax. They discuss their theories before heading back into the city via train. There it is Miles drops on Wax and almost killing him in the ensuing fight. Using his skills Wax is able to knock Miles from the train. Speaking to the engineers Marasi finds Wax and tends to his wounds. Needing a place to lay low for awhile [[Ranatte]] gets a visit she's most unappreciative of, shoving a shotgun in Wax's face. Wayne bribes their way into her affection by giving her Wax's aluminium gun, much to the latter's dismay.
Ranette is a gunsmith, providing Wax with a set of Hazekiller rounds and a new gun - a prototype, infact, that she named the Vindicator after the [[Vin|Ascendant Warrior]]. Sending Wayne and Marasi on supply runs, Wax sits down to plot where the Vanishers will strike next. The Tekiel's [[Breaknought]] seems the prime target set to make it's maiden trip tomorrow. With a craftily planned distraction, Wax manages to slip aboard the Breaknought and it sets off with him inside.
The Vanishers show up as he'd planned and Wayne and Marasi watching from afar witness how the Vanishers pull off their robberies. Lifting the entire car off the tracks, a canal boat and crane steal the Breaknought, replacing the stolen car with a replica. In Miles' workshop he makes an educated guess that Wax is inside the Breaknought and has set his men to fire on any movement inside. Wrenching the door out of its frame the inside of the safe is still. Miles notices the length of string tied to the back of the door from the interior of the safe, shortly before Wax, hidden inside, pulls the string tight and setting off the dynamite taped to the back of the door.
