Despite his survival, Marsh's existence is undoubtedly marked by conflict and internal struggle. His reliance on atium is a constant reminder of his connection to Ruin and the delicate balance he must maintain to avoid succumbing to the dark force's influence once again. This complex dynamic adds depth to his character, showcasing his resilience and the sacrifices he made to retain his autonomy. Firstborn · The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England · I Hate Dragons · Heuristic Algorithm and Reasoning Response Engine · The Rithmatist The Vanishers as a whole are this to the Skaa rebellion in Final Empire. They're both disenfranchised groups who live outside of the law, but where the Skaa join for ideology and usually because they can't live a normal life, the Vanishers mostly join up for money, and one is encouraged to plead guilty and make an honest living. Perhaps the most apparent similarity is the wedding robbery compared to the raid on Holstep Garrison; in both cases, the leader lost control of his men and lost almost everyone, and laments that they're done for. Wax discovers that the person who had recruited Miles in the first place is the presumed dead Lord Edwarn Ladrian, Wax's uncle, who still holds the other kidnapped women. Edwarn is connected to a shadowy organization known as the Set, and has used the robberies to commit profitable insurance fraud. Wax and Wayne decide that they will stay in Elendel and try to stop Lord Edwarn and his organization from fulfilling their plans. Miles is stripped of his metalminds and publicly executed. Marasi is approached by Ironeyes (Marsh, now revered as Death himself) and given a mysterious book.If someone were able to burn the amount of bendalloy needed to become an Allomantic savant with the metal, they would be able to anchor the speed bubble to themselves, allowing the speed bubble to move with them. This would cause complications for objects moving in and out of the bubble as energy is transferred to and from the Spiritual Realm to prevent redshift and blueshift. [18] They would also be able to influence the size of the bubble and the amount of time it gives. [19] Feruchemical Use [ edit ] He dropped a bullet casing and launched himself high into the air, then landed atop the building across the street from the mansion. He glanced over his shoulder at it, the windows ablaze in the evening dark. What kind of rumors was he going to start, vanishing from the balcony like that? Wax dashed across the rooftop and leaped off, toward Demoux Promenade. Right before hitting the ground, he flipped a spent casing down and Pushed on it, slowing his descent. He landed in a patch of decorative shrubs that caught his coat tassels and made a rustling noise.

When they approached the temple, Steris pointed out that someone had to watch for Suit's men and keep a lookout. So Steris, Marasi, and Wayne stayed behind. [9] While on lookout, Steris showed Marasi a chart of how useful everyone was on the hunt, with the max score being one hundred. Wax and MeLaan both had a score of one hundred. Wayne was a seventy-five. Marasi was an eighty-three. Steris had given herself a score of seven (originally a four). Steris then told Marasi how she felt about Wax. Steris was deliberately written as autistic; Brandon felt like he did a poor job representing people on the spectrum with Adien in Elantris, and so she and Renarin were written partially in an attempt to correct that.

There are tidbits in each of the books that inform the other books, but you don’t have to notice these things to enjoy the story by itself. Finding these easter eggs is one of the things that makes re-reading the books so much fun. This portion of the building had been finished already, the exterior made of a molded material that imitated worked stone. Ceramics, he’d heard. It was a common practice for tall buildings, where the lower levels would be actual stone, but the higher reaches would use something lighter. Steris is given to moments of deep reflection and poetic expression, as well as moments of surprising honesty. [15] She speaks formally most of the time, except with Wayne, whom she does not respect at all. I fervently hope that Sanderson follows this novel up to get on with the unfinished business and tie up the loose ends that the end of the book leaves us at. There is certainly a full novel worth of material to do so.
