'''Conservación''' es una [[Esquirla]] de [[Adonalsium]], una de las dos alojadas en [[Scadrial]]. Su [[Recipiente]] original fue [[Leras]], aunque [[Kelsier]] y [[Vin]] también fueron Recipientes antes de que [[Sazed]] cogiera el poder y lo fusionase con [[Ruina]], convirtiéndose en [[Armonía]].{{wob ref|4115}} En las religiones de [[Terris]], Conservación es conocida como '''Terr''' o "Para conservar". Al [[Scadriano del sur|sur de Scadrial]] se le conoce como '''Frue''' y se creía que era femenina.{{book ref|mb3|75}}{{book ref|mb6|22}} La [[Investidura]] de Conservación normalmente está asociada con el color blanco.{{wob ref|3031}}

La [[
=== Lerasium ===
[[Lerasium]] is the [[God Metal]] of Preservation, or the metallic form of its body. Preservation's Vessel can create them deliberately; it's unknown whether it'll form on its own.{{wob ref|6046}} Unlike most metals, Lerasium can be burned by any person who ingests it. Doing so transforms a person into a Mistborn of power exceeding that of a natural-born Allomancer; if a Mistborn burned it, it would enhance their pre-existing powers.{{wob ref|10116}} It can also be alloyed with any of the base sixteen metals to make someone a Misting of the alloyed metal.{{file ref|Table of Allomantic Metals.jpeg|text=Table of Allomantic Metals}}

{{image|Vin In the Mists by clarinking.jpg|side=right|width=250px|[[Vin]] floating in Preservation's mists}}
{{for|Mist}}
The mists can be used by Preservation to manifest as a so-called '''mist spirit'''. The spirit has limited power to influence the world around it, curtailed further by Preservation's natural disinclination towards acting in general; however, under right circumstances it is able to interact with physical objects.{{msh ref|2|4}} Both Preservation and later Harmony can also use the mists to fuel the Allomancy of people they chose to empower, circumventing the need for metals.{{book ref|mb3|73}}

|They say that You come to all people when they die.
Preservation is able to hear the voice of any living Scadrian, but cannot speak to them; full two-way communication is only possible through the use of both it and [[Ruin]].{{book ref|mb3|10}} It can manifest a body in Scadrial's [[Cognitive Realm]], which both [[Leras]] and [[Sazed]] use to speak with the recently-deceased before they pass on through to the [[Beyond]].{{msh ref|1|1}}{{book ref|mb6|28}}

A thousand years later, after [[Kelsier]] was killed by [[Rashek]] -- now known as the Lord Ruler -- he found himself in the [[Cognitive Realm]] and face to face with an apparition of Leras. After promptly punching it in the face, Kelsier tricked Preservation into revealing how to become a [[Cognitive Shadow]], and was subsequently trapped in the [[Well of Ascension]] as it began to fill once more.{{msh ref|1|1}}

Preservation is the author of the [[Terris Prophecies]], a set of legends that foretold the coming of the [[Hero of Ages]]. Leras created them as part of his plan to ultimately defeat Ruin, and although [[Ati]] twisted the prophecies over time to serve his ends instead, they were successful in this regard and have led to the creation of Harmony.{{wob ref|8056}} On a smaller scale, Leras, with aid of [[Kelsier]], was responsible for stabbing [[Elend]] at the [[Well of Ascension]], leading to him becoming a [[Allomancy|Mistborn]], and the mist spirit snapped Allomancers for many centuries.{{msh ref|2|4}}{{epigraph ref|mb3|72}}

* The Southern name for Preservation, Frue, is the Danish word meaning "lady" or "Mrs", and is close to German Frau ("Miss"), matching the name for Ruin, Herr (German for "Mister").
* In ''[[wikipedia:Magic: The Gathering|Magic:The Gathering]]'' colors, Preservation would be white.{{wob ref|11057}}
