The Fountain Square[1][2][3] is a prominent location in Luthadel on Scadrial. The Lord Ruler used it to showcase executions in order to inspire fear in the skaa population.[1]
Description
The square is "enormous". It has a central patio raised five feet above the ground that contains four bowl-style fountains. [4]
Location
The square is located in central Luthadel, on the road from the Steel Gate to Kredik Shaw. It is near Clubs's shop and the Kenton Street shopping district.[2]
History
During the Final Empire, the square was commonly used by the Lord Ruler to perform public executions.[4] All men in Luthadel were required to attend the executions, and would be released from work to do so. Despite the square's size, it did not have enough room to contain all of the attendees, even if people watched from nearby rooftops, but bleachers were set up for the nobility.[4] Steel Inquisitors would behead prisoners and direct the blood into the fountain basins, making them run red.[4]
Kelsier made his final stand against the Lord Ruler at a smaller courtyard square nearby[5] that later became known as the Square of the Survivor.[6] When Kelsier freed a number of prisoners and killed many of the Lord Ruler's soldiers in the courtyard, a large number of skaa arrived on the scene quickly; they had been at the Fountain Square for an execution ceremony that was assumed to be retribution for Kelsier's destruction of the Pits of Hathsin.[5] The Lord Ruler and many of his soldiers, Obligators, and Inquisitors soon followed.[7]
