{{epigraph|I write these words in steel, for anything not set in metal cannot be trusted.}}

 

 

 

 

*[[bws: mistborn-2-chapter-one|Chapter 1]]

{{epigraph|I have begun to wonder if I am the only sane man left. Can the others not see? They have been waiting so long for their hero to come - the one spoken of in Terris prophecies - that they quickly jump between conclusions, presuming that each story and legend applies to this one man.}}

 

 

 

*[[bws: mistborn-2-chapter-two|Chapter 2]]

{{epigraph|My brethren ignore the other facts. They cannot connect the other strange things that are happening. They are deaf to my objections and blind to my discoveries.}}

 

 

Elend works on a proposal to the [[Luthadel Assembly]], to prevent them from taking any actions that he feels are rash, before he can parlay with Straff Venture.

 

 

 

 

*[[bws: mistborn-2-chapter-three|Chapter 3]]

{{epigraph|Perhaps they are right. Perhaps I am mad, or jealous, or simply daft. My name is Kwaan. Philosopher, scholar, traitor. I am the one who discovered Alendi, and I am the one who first proclaimed him to be the Hero of Ages. I am the one who started this all.}}

 

 

 

Sazed performs [[HaDah]] funeral rites and buries Jed. He stays at the village to teach them to be self-sufficient.

{{epigraph|And I am the one who betrayed Alendi, for I now know that he must never be allowed to complete his quest.}}

 

 

 

 

===Chapter 6===

{{epigraph|I write this record now, pounding it into a metal slab, because I am afraid. Afraid for myself, yes - I admit to being human. If Alendi does return from the Well of Ascension, I am certain that my death will be one of his first objectives. He is not an evil man, but he is a ruthless one. That is, I think, a product of what he has been through.}}

 

 

Vin duels with Hammond using staves, and agrees to only burn pewter. Elend watches, along with Clubs, and Spook, and Clubs coerces Elend to bet on Hammond to win, while Clubs and Spook each bet on Vin. As they watch the fight progress, they discuss the siege and rumors that are spreading about an atium cache in Luthadel. Vin uses her dexterity to triumph over Hammond.

 

{{epigraph|I am also afraid, however, that all I have known - that my story - will be forgotten. I am afraid for the world that is to come. Afraid that my plans will fail.<br>Afraid of a doom worse, even, than the Deepness.}}

 

 

Sazed teaches rural skaa various skills, including writing, farming, governing and medicine, at the behest of the [[Synod]], the Terris governing body. He feels restless, and thinks there are more mysteries to solve even after the Lord Ruler's death.

 

{{epigraph|It all comes back to poor Alendi. I feel bad for him, and for all of the things he has been forced to endure. For what he has been forced to become.}}

 

 

Vin patrols the city, and OreSeur demonstrates a fair propensity for keeping up with her. She spies the Watcher, and sets out to chase him. During the chase, she accidentally discovers the allomantic use for duralumin, since she burns it while burning another metal, tin. While she was temporarily disoriented due to sensory overload, OreSeur catches up to her, bringing her abandoned metal vial, and the Watcher approaches her to talk, asking why she fell down, and if she had really slain the Lord Ruler, and why she "plays their games", indicating Elend's keep. He tells her he is an insane enemy and departs, and Vin lets him leave without incident, to OreSeur's disgust. Vin asks OreSeur to carry metals for her, and he obliges, opening a cavity in his shoulder for a vial.

 

{{epigraph|But, let me begin at the beginning. I met Alendi first in Khlennium; he was a young lad then, and had not yet been warped by a decade spent leading armies.}}

 

 

Sazed and Marsh journey to the Conventical of Seran. Marsh says that Sazed belongs in Luthadel helping Elend and Vin and the others, and that their work supercedes the task that Sazed has been performing in spreading knowledge to the rural areas and that Sazed should go to the capital city when they finish their work at the Conventical. Sazed states that he already sent help but Marsh counters that it is not enough, and Sazed silently agrees with this assessment.

 

{{epigraph|Alendi's height struck me the first time I saw him. Here was a man who towered over others, a man who - despite his youth and his humble clothing - demanded respect.}}

 

 

Vin and Hammond guard Elend at an Assembly meeting. Elend gives a speech about the army sieging Luthadel, and proposes that negotiations with Straff be attempted before any further votes by the Assembly regarding the disposition of the city are taken. The Assembly accepted his proposal by meeting a two-thirds majority in favor.

{{epigraph|Oddly, it was Alendi's simple ingenuousness that first led me to befriend him. I employed him as an assistant during his first months in the grand city.}}

 

Elend, Clubs, Vin and OreSeur stand atop the city wall, scouting Cett's army. They notice a rider leaving the army and Vin realizes it is Breeze trying to reach sanctuary in Luthadel while being pursued by archers. Vin uses a duralumin steel-push to intercept the pursuers, buys time for Breeze to escape, then uses another duralumin steel-push to scatter her foes.

 

{{epigraph|It wasn't until years later that I became convinced that Alendi was the Hero of Ages. Hero of Ages: the one called Rabzeen in Khlennium, the Anamnesor.<br>Savior}}

 

 

Sazed and Marsh arrive at the Conventical of Seran. They explore the building, and Sazed stores his observations in a coppermind. They find the remnants of a massacre.

 

{{epigraph|When I finally had the realization - finally connected all the signs of the Anticipation to Alendi - I was so excited. Yet, when I announced my discovery to the other Worldbringers, I was met with scorn.<br>Oh, how I wish that I had listened to them.}}

 

 

 

Vin burns [[bronze]]. She feels the same odd pulsing that she felt in Chapter 3. She decides to face her fear of the [[Preservation|mist spirit]]. She finds the spirit on the third floor of an apartment block, with prime vantage point to overlook Vin and OreSeur's prior conversation. Vin yells at the mist spirit, but it merely steps forwards and dissipates. She feels cold grab her arm and a pain pierces Vin, running from her ear (presumably the one with the earring) to her mind, causing her to fall from the window. She flares [[tin]] and [[pewter]] to ease her fall. Vin begins to fear the mists.

{{icon|14|mb2|70px|center|link=}}

{{epigraph|And yet, any who know me will realize that there was no chance I would give up so easily. Once I find something to investigate, I become dogged in my pursuit.}}

The Terriswoman's name is [[Tindwyl]], an acquaintance of [[Sazed]]. Her [[coppermind]] specialty is biographies - she has studied the lives of great men. She has come to (forcibly) tutor [[Elend]] in the arts of being regal. [[Vin]] immediately distrusts her.

 

===Chapter 15===

{{icon|15|mb2|70px|center|link=}}

{{epigraph|I had determined that Alendi was the Hero of Ages, and I intended to prove it. I should have bowed before the will of the others; I shouldn't have insisted on traveling with Alendi to witness his journeys.<br>It was inevitable that Alendi himself would find out what I believed him to be.}}

Eight days after leaving the [[Conventical of Seran|Conventical]], [[Sazed]] finds himself alone. At the village of [[Urbene]], Sazed finds the bodies of the [[skaa]] villagers. They had died from starvation and dehydration. Sazed finds a man still alive, though close to the brink of death. The man is too scared to go outside as there is mist appearing during the day. Some who tried to leave ended up dead from violent shakes (almost like an epileptic fit). Others survived, either untouched by the mists, or had a seizure, but were still alive. The man walks over to a corpse and starts eating it. Sazed uses a [[pewtermind]] to pick up the man and take him outside. Once outside the man runs away. Sazed retrieves his bag, pulling out a [[steelmind]], using the stored speed to get to [[Luthadel]] faster.

{{icon|16|mb2|70px|center|link=}}

{{epigraph|Yes, he was the one who fueled the rumors after that. I could never have done what he himself did, convincing and persuading the world that he was indeed the Hero. I don’t know if he himself believed it, but he made others think that he must be the one.}}

 

 

 

===Chapter 17===

{{epigraph|If only the Terris religion, and belief in the Anticipation, hadn't spread beyond our people.}}

 

 

Vin starts taking notes on the logbook but she is interrupted by Elend, who says there is a messenger from Straff Venture. Vin, Elend and OreSeur go to meet the messenger, who turns out to be the Watcher, and he identifies himself as Zane and states that Straff would be willing to host a meeting in his own camp, to which Elend replies that he will think about it.

 

{{epigraph|If only the Deepness hadn't come when it did, providing a threat that drove men to desperation both in action and belief.}}

 

 

Zane watches Elend secretly, and listens to a voice inside his head saying to kill him, though he is Zane's half-brother. He ignores the voice and returns to his camp after retrieving a message from a spy he employs in Elend's palace.

 

{{epigraph|If only I had passed over Alendi when looking for an assistant, all those years ago.}}

 

 

Sazed gets rid of an empty steel metalmind that he used to travel quickly, and estimates he has one week of normal walking to reach Luthadel, but he encounters an army of [[koloss]]. As he spies on them, he doesn't see a patrol that detects him, and they take him captive. Sazed is taken to the leader of the koloss, [[Jastes Lekal]], who orders Sazed to become his steward. Sazed declines, stating he has urgent business in Luthadel. Jastes allows Sazed to leave, and says to tell Elend that he will ally his army with Elend and that he will help fight off the other two armies, and coexist peacefully in the capital city.

 

{{epigraph|It wasn't until a few years later that I began to notice the signs. I knew the prophecies - I am a Terris Worldbringer, after all. And yet, not all of us are religious men; some, such as myself, are more interested in other topics. However, during my time with Alendi, I could not help but become more interested in the Anticipation. He seemed to fit the signs so well.}}

 

 

Elend, Dockson, Hammond, Clubs and Breeze discuss Elend's plan to parlay with Straff in his military camp as Vin, Tindwyl and OreSeur observe. Elend states his plan is to play Straff and Cett against each other.

 

{{epigraph|He was born of a humble family, yet married the daughter of a king.}}

 

 

Allrianne Cett arrives in the palace, and hugs Breeze, to the surprise of Elend and Hammond. Elend offers her hospitality, and she leaves to wash up.

 

{{epigraph|He could trade words with the finest of philosophers, and had an impressive memory. Nearly as good, even, as my own. Yet, he was not argumentative.}}

 

 

Vin sits in night mists, fretting over her losing control over changing circumstances. She prepares a trick to check if Hammond is an imposter, by having OreSeur startle him while he is on his patrol route while she uses bronze to see if he burns pewter, which he does. Vin tells Hammond that she is out of atium and asks for tips on fighting a mistborn, and he tells her of two possible methods to win, by either surprising the enemy or setting an unavoidable trap.

 

{{epigraph|The Terris rejected him, but he came to lead them.}}

 

 

Sazed tells Elend, Vin, Hammond, Breeze, Dockson, Clubs and Spook about the twenty thousand koloss in Jastes' army. They discuss contingency plans to deal with alternate possibilities when the third invading army shows up at Luthadel. Sazed also states there is something wrong with the mists, and that they may present a great, though undefined danger, and that they are killing people. Sazed reveals that he will be staying in Luthadel to find out more information about this problem.

 

{{epigraph|He commanded kings, and though he sought no empire, he became greater than all who had come before.}}

 

 

Vin stands watch from her guard post outside Elend's balcony. She burns bronze and detects the mist spirit, as well as a distant source of allomantic power, and reads a page from the logbook that describes a similar mysterious source of allomancy in the Terris mountains.

 

{{epigraph|He fathered no children, yet all of the land became his progeny.}}

 

 

Vin is invited by Tindwyl to go shopping for a dress to wear for her meeting with Straff Venture, and they are accompanied by Allrianne, Spook and OreSeur. Tindwyl confronts Vin about her relationship with Elend and her refusal of his marriage proposal. Tindwyl encourages Vin to speak briefly to a crowd of members of the Church of the Survivor who gather outside the dress shop.

 

===Chapter 26===

{{icon|3|mb2|70px|center|link=}}

 

 

Vin and Elend meet with Straff Venture in his military camp to parlay. Elend offers an alliance to Straff to fight off Cett's army before allowing Straff to take Luthadel so that Elend can become heir again, but Straff refuses, until Elend tries to bluff and offer up the supposed atium cache. Straff asks to speak with Elend alone, and everyone else clears out of the dinner tent.

 

{{epigraph|He was no simple soldier. He was a force of leadership - a man that fate itself seemed to support.}}

 

 

Straff and Elend parlay, Elend stating that Straff can't win without his help, but Straff states that he already has a treaty with Cett, and that he would only agree to Elend's demands if Elend accompanies Straff to the city walls and surrenders the city. Elend refuses, and Straff calls for his soldiers to kill Elend. Elend warns Straff that he would not survive if Elend is killed, but Straff counters that he has his own mistborn for protection. As Vin listens to the exchange from outside the tent, Zane appears.

 

{{epigraph|He left ruin in his wake, but it was forgotten. He created kingdoms, and then destroyed them as he made the world anew.}}

 

 

Tindwyl berates Elend for writing the legal code that allows the Assembly to depose the king. Dockson states that Elend should maneuver around the Assembly's vote to retain his throne, and Clubs and Tindwyl urge Elend to use martial law to retain control, but Elend declines to do so. Elend reviews the laws to find a way to regain his throne. Tindwyl advises Elend to not be distracted by Vin.

 

{{epigraph|There were other proofs to connect Alendi to the Hero of Ages. Smaller things, things that only one trained in the lore of the Anticipation would have noticed. The birthmark on his arm. The way his hair turned gray when he was berely twenty and five years of age. The way he spoke, the way he treated people, the way he ruled.<br>He simply seemed to fit.}}

 

 

Vin and OreSeur are at Keep Hasting, and discuss Vin's insomnia and Zane's poor character. OreSeur states he does not want to change bodies too often. Vin has a flash of insight about the [[Deepness]].

{{epigraph|But, I must continue with the sparsest of detail. Space is limited. The other Worldbringers must have thought themselves humble when they came to me, admitting that they had been wrong. Even then, I was beginning to doubt my original declaration.<br>But, I was prideful.}}

 

 

Sazed transcribes the rubbings that he took at the Conventical of Seran. He realizes that he could spend years studying and analyzing this document.

 

{{epigraph|In the end, my pride may have doomed us all.}}

 

 

 

===Chapter 32===

{{epigraph|I had never received much attention from my brethen; they thought that my work and my interests were unsuitable to a Worldbringer. They couldn't see how my work, studying nature instead of religion, benefited the people of the fourteen lands.}}

 

 

Lord Cett addresses the Assembly on why he believes he should be voted into office as king. He argues that his army along with Elend's can hold off the other invaders and that he would rule well and make sure that all the Assembly members were rewarded for supporting him. Cett is allowed to enter the city and take occupancy of one of the abandoned keeps, accompanied by one thousand of his soldiers for protection, and the meeting is adjourned.

 

{{epigraph|As the one who found Alendi, however, I became someone important. Foremost among the Worldbringers.}}

 

 

Vin silently wonders if she is the true Hero of Ages, and expresses frustration over the vagueness of the Terris prophecies to OreSeur.

 

{{epigraph|There was a place for me, in the lore of the Anticipation - I thought myself the Announcer, the prophet foretold to discover the Hero of Ages. Renouncing Alendi then would have been to renounce my new position, my acceptance, by the others.<br>And so I did not.}}

 

 

 

Vin enters the library and mentions the poisoned well, but Elend responds that he is already aware of it. Vin starts feeling insecure about Elend and hears Reen's voice telling her to leave Elend before he does the same to her.

{{epigraph|But I do so now. Let it be known that I, Kwaan, Worldbringer of Terris, am a fraud.}}

 

 

Vin tries on her new custom-fitted mistborn gown. Tindwyl states that Elend must try to stand on his own without assistance.

 

{{epigraph|Alendi was never the Hero of Ages. At best, I have amplified his virtues, creating a Hero where there was none. At worst, I fear that all we believe may have been corrupted.}}

 

 

Sazed offers comfort to a newly arrived group of refugees who are being housed in an arms warehouse. Tindwyl asks Sazed to show her the rubbing that he made at the Conventical of Seran.
