//central dominance <br>
Luthadel lies in the middle of the Central Dominance, therefore being in the
A week journey to Arguois Caverns, and Arguois Caverns closer to Luthadel than Pits of Hathsin.{{book ref|mb1|6}} <br>
Imperial highroad: flat and packed earth, leading to Fellise.{{book ref|mb1|8}} <br>
Mist.({{expand}}with{{book ref|mb1|7}}) <br>
Contradictory to earlier: noblemen considered fear of mist to be a foolish skaa superstition.{{book ref|mb1|23}} <br>
"Outside, the sunlight was nearly gone, and diaphanous patches of mist were beginning to form in the air. They hung like ghosts, slowly growing larger, extending their influence as night approached."{{book ref|mb1|27}} <br>
==== Ash ====
Sootwarrens slum. Every few decades or so, new sections were added, and the city wall expanded due to the effort of skaa labor, thanks to canals stone was cheap.{{book ref|mb1|19}} <br>
Steel gate is main city gate (actually multiple gates).{{book ref|mb1|24}} <br>
▲(The Twists: one of the most impoverished skaa slums.{{book ref|mb1|27}})

==== The Lord Ruler ====
{{for|Lord Ruler}}
Attended executions in black carriage drawn by a pair of massive white stallions.{{book ref|mb1|26}} <br>
His Soothing is strong enough to influence someone burning copper.{{book ref|mb1|27}} <br>
==== Steel Ministry ====
The Canton of Orthodoxy formed the main bureaucratic arm of the Misitry. (Sidenote: obligators had tattoos around their eyes, the higher their rank the more intricate their tattoos) Obligators had to witness every event, written document or agreement, otherwise it wouldn't have happened formally. This was a smart way for the Ministry to know everything about the nobility.{{book ref|mb1|23}} <br>
When the Inquisitors kill a Misting, they make certain to wipe out his children too.{{book ref|mb1|24}} <br>
Obligators were robed in gray, Inquisitors in black. The higher an obligator's position, the finer their robes. The Lord Prelan was higher ranked than the Inquisitors.{{book ref|mb1|26}} <br>
Acolytes trained for five years before finishing their training in Luthadel, and most were younger than Marsh at that time. Particularly the Canton of Inquisition recruits nobleman Seekers diligently. The Ministry was far more competent than they showed the world. There are political tensions between Inquisitors and obligators, the lord prelan leads the church but Inquisitors think that should be their responsibility. Obligators lead a busy life, and most higher-ranked ones are Mistings. ''Canton of Inquisition tattoos''.{{book ref|mb1|27}} <br>
==== Nobility ====
One bead of atium is worth more than three thousand boxings.{{book ref|mb1|13}} <br>
These canals had towpaths besides them.{{book ref|mb1|21}} <br>
Boxings are made of gold. In each city, including Luthadel, is a small group of merchants who provide powdered metals to Allomancers, these metals can be considered pure because these merchants have a vested interest in keeping their (dangerous) customers satisfied.{{book ref|mb1|27}} <br>
'''Soothing stations''': The Ministry has dozens of soothing stations spread throughout Luthadel. Each one contains a couple of skilled Ministry Soothers who's only task is to depress the emotions of everyone near, to prevent rebellious thoughts. Each team also has a Smoker to keep them hidden and a Seeker to watch for passing Allomancers. They do personnel changes at night.{{book ref|mb1|27}} <br>
=== Organization ===
==== Inquisitors ====
{{for|Steel Inquisitor}}
At least nine Inquisitors in Luthadel{{book ref|mb1|26}}, not much more{{book ref|mb1|11}}. <br>
Inquisitors are long-lived, but do die of old age. New ones are recruited from noblemen ranks. They have all (ten known) Allomantic powers.{{book ref|mb1|27}} <br>
