He discards the now-useless bracelet, reflecting on the trade-off between haste and conservation. His journey brings him near Luthadel, where the landscape shifts to the familiar white aspens of the Central Dominance. Though lighter from shedding less valuable metalminds, he remains burdened by the weight of his remaining reserves and…-

Elend observes Vin and Ham sparring in the palace courtyard, feeling conflicted about his own lack of combat training. He acknowledges that no amount of practice would make him a match for an Allomantic assassin, yet he finds himself drawn to the scene. The physical contrast between the muscular Ham and the petite Vin is striking, especially as she wields a staff taller than herself. Their training session is restricted to pewter-enhanced strength, as Ham believes mastering basic skills is essential even…-

Sazed, a Terrisman Keeper, finds himself teaching basic literacy to skaa villagers using dirt floors as makeshift chalkboards, highlighting the stark poverty of the rural community.

The hall features a stage with seating for Assembly members on one side and a lectern for speakers on the other, facing the Assemblymen rather than the audience. Elend, the king, encourages public attendance at these meetings, though turnout is often sparse.

Sazed, a scholar with stored knowledge in metalminds, observes the fortress's unusual design, noting its lack of defensibility against armies but its effectiveness in providing solitude. The Inquisitors, who once inhabited the fortress, clearly intended to deter visitors, as the location is hidden and difficult to access. The eerie atmosphere sets the stage for the…-
