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, he had no practice.
Rashek attempted to destroy the Deepness by moving Scadrial closer to the star in Scadrial's system, to burn away the mists.
He also created the Balance; he made the noblemen taller, stronger, and less fertile, and change everyone else, except the Terrismen, into the race that would be known as the skaa.
They were shorter, hardier, and had many children.
Rashek was worried that his changes to humanity would result in some unseen complication that would cause humans to become extinct.
He decided to move a portion of the population to the south pole, and leave them unchanged, giving them some other unknown method of survival.
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 one in the north to disguise what had happened.
Rashek also was granted an understanding of the Metallic Arts.
=== The Final Empire ===
The Lord Ruler began his conquest by finding leaders who were amicable to making him Emperor of the world. He bribed their support by using the nuggets of Lerasium to give them the power of Allomancy.
He gave away nine beads of Lerasium. These men became the Nine Original Allomancers.
He also used the koloss as unstoppable monsters destroying cities weakened by the Deepness.
It took him around two centuries to conquer the whole world, although some religions, such as Jaism, resisted him until five centuries after his Ascension.
Rashek established his capital at the city of Luthadel, built over the Well of Ascension.
Since he was both a Feruchemist and an Allomancer Rashek was able to burn his metalminds in a process known as Compounding, which uses Preservation's power to fuel an attribute of Feruchemy.
The Lord Ruler was able to atium Compound, giving him a near limitless source of youth.
The Lord Ruler ruled the Final Empire for around 1000 years waiting for the Well to refill, so he coud take the power again.
During this time Ruin began to talk to the Lord Ruler through his Hemalurgic spikes, manipulating the Lord Ruler and playing off his insecurities.
The Lord Ruler decided to begin measures that would protect humanity somewhat, should Ruin ever break free.
He started by hiding as much atium as he could, weakening Ruin as much as possible.
Rashek had the [[Obligators]] secretly remove atium from most of the geodes.
A little atium was shipped to Luthadel to be held by the Lord Ruler or sold to the noblemen.
All the rest was sent to the kandra [[Homeland]], a metal rich area, which was near the Pits of Hathsin.
Whenever the Lord Ruler returned some atium to the Homeland it was hidden in canal boats, and caravans with gold, so Ruin could not see it.
Rashek also began digging storage caverns beneath several cities in the Final Empire, containing food water, and other basic survival needs, and also acting as a shelter for humanity.
He also put metal plates in the caverns, giving clues to the next cavern's location, along with his musings about Ruin, and the formulas for new Allomantic metals that the Lord Ruler had kept a secret.
