Pyromie Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 After a lot of reading and re-reading of questions asked of Brandon in regards to the upcoming Mistborn Third Trilogy, I am getting a strong impression that the "Ones above" mentioned many times in the Sixth of the Dusk are in fact, former inhabitants of Scadrial. What do ya'll think?

AeonaRin Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 That is the most popular theory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modal Seoul Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 They are either Scadrians or Khriss and her buddies looking for work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+hwiles Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Agreed. One of the Ones Above fakes his death by pretending to choke and suffocate. The simplest way this could be done convincingly is by a feruchemist storing breath. Since the Ones Above are a people we've reportedly seen before, this makes Scadrians the best bet for the time being. As an additional note, the machine The Ones Above use to track the birds sounds a lot like a mechanized form of bronze allomancy... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is true, and we have the hint in the post script about this being the latest story in the cosmere so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Yeah, it's by no means the only possible explanation but it's the most common theory and for all intents and purposes the most plausible given what we know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
