However, Alendi had still failed to stop the Deepness, and there was only one hope, the Well of Ascension. As the power returned to the Well, Alendi could hear the pulses because he was a Seeker. He hoped that giving up the power would stop the Deepness. Kwaan knew that Alendi mustn't be allowed to reach the Well, for he knew that giving up the power was just what Ruin wanted. Kwaan's only hope to stop Alendi was his nephew Rashek, a Feruchemist who hated Alendi, and the nation of Khlennium from which he hailed. The reason for Rashek's hatred was because he believed that the TerrismanTerrismen should be dominant because of their Feruchemical abilities. Also, as just a poor herder, he was also jealous of the Khlenni sophistication and culture. Kwaan commanded his nephew to become Alendi's pack man, and to attempt to mislead on his way to the Well. If Rashek failed at that, Kwaan asked him to kill Alendi. The last remnant of Leras's mind was also doing it'sits best to stop Alendi. In the form of the mist spirit, it followed Alendi, and knifedknifing his companion Fedik when he became too interested in Ruin's Shardpool, the Black Lake, which the party encountered on their journey to the Well. Ultimately, Rashek failed to lead Alendi astray and killed him. At that point, Rashek himself took the power at the Well of Ascension and refused to give it up, denying Ruin his chance at freedom.

While holding the power, Rashek's mind was expanded, but he wasn't accustomed to such great power, heand had no experience with using it. Rashek attempted to destroy the Deepness by moving Scadrial closer to theits star, in Scadrial's system,order to burn away the mists. Unfortunately Scadrial's new location was too hot for life, so Rashek moved it further away from it'sits parent star, which left the planet too cold. Rashek then moved it closer to the star again, but it was still too hot. Rashek hadHaving no point of reference for where the planet should go, so he justRashek decidedelected to leave it too close to the star. He began working retroactively to fix problems he had created himself, because the intent of Preservation, who'swhose power made up the Well, was affecting him. To counter the increased heat, he made the Ashmounts, volcanoes whowhich pumped gas and ferromagnetic ash into the air,. toThese shadowshaded the land near the north pole, which was one of thetwo relatively coolestcool places remaining on Scadrial, the other being the south pole. ThisGas gasfrom the Ashmounts also made the atmosphere thicker too, which raised temperatures in the rest of the world, turning it even hotter,. resulting inThis theresulted in a massive dessertdesert called the Burnlands, which coveredcovering most of the planet. Rashek realized that the ash from the Ashmounts would eventually bury the whole land. He thus created plants and microbes that broke down the ash. When Rashek altered the humans of the north pole to make them able to survive in a world so full of ash, he worried that the changes he made to their physiology would kill them. He left some of the humans on Scadrial unaltered, as a control, and moved them to the southernrelatively hemisphere, in the other coolercool area near the south pole. He gave them an unknown method to survive there. Rashek also wished to disguise the location of the Well, so he flattened the Terris mountains, moved them south from the pole, and raised new onemountains in the north to disguise what had happened.

Rashek also was granted an understanding of the Metallic Arts. Ruin whispered to Rashek the secrets of how to make koloss and Inquisitors, servants that Ruin hoped to take control of himself later on. Rashek realized that the Feruchemists of his homeland would be difficult to control because of the knowledge of their copperminds. They wouldn't accept him as their leader because he had murdered their Hero, Alendi. So Rashek offered a bargain to his fellow pack men and his uncle Kwaan. He would grant them immortality, in exchange for their Feruchemy and humanity. Rashek's packmen accepted his proposal, but Kwaan refused saying it was a betrayal of who the Terris were as a people. Using the power of Preservation, Rashek changed his friends and every other living Feruchemist into a mistwraith, but he attempted to destroy Kwaan, which he couldn't do with the power of Preservation, so Kwaan remained the same.{{qa ref|727|27|What happened to Kwaan?|date=2008-10-16}} Using the secrets of Hemalurgy, Rashek returned his companions to sentience, using spikes to change them from mistwraiths into kandra. After this, the last of Rashek's power faded, and he returned to his regular state of existence, although he was now a Sliver of Preservation. Rashek wasretained thenor grantedobtained the powers of a [[Allomancy#Mistborn|Mistborn]], although it is unknown if this was a side affecteffect of holding the Well's power or if he burned a piece of Lerasium. Rashek began calling himself the Lord Ruler, and began his quest to reconquer what was left of Scadrial.
