  1. When VenDell addressed the crew about the job, he talked about how ReLuur lost his spike. How it must be collected because the Kandra cannot just use a spike from a some other Kandra. He claims that doing so can cause a violent adverse reaction. However, this goes completely against events in Book 3 HoA. There it talks about how TenSoon took OreSeur's Blessing of Potency after killing him and used it on a number of occasions. Is this a continuity error, or did I miss something?
  2. Breath is a unique form of investiture in that is, at least some what, intertwined with the spiritual realm. Each person born on Nalthis has their own small well of investiture. Endowment can also use Breath to bring a soul back from "The Beyond" with a Divine Breath. Because of the nature of this form of investiture people can choose to relinquish their well, and either give it to another, or invest it into an object. However, when they do this they undergo a very clear transformation. The most notable changes is the how their skin, hair, and even the clothing they wear seem to lose color, and they become undetectable to people with Perfect Life Sense (The 4th Heightening). Drabs also seem to be more susceptible to some illnesses. So it made me wonder, in a world where EVERYONE has some investiture, and losing it makes you less, does relinquishing ones stock cut them off from entering The Cognitive Realm? Do we know of any Drab world hoppers?
  3. I am reminded of the scene in the first book when Kel goes to destroy The Pits of Hathsin. Before he does that though, he saves a single man from the pits. This man bore the scars that one gets after spending a long time searching for Atium geodes. This is the only individual that we know of with those scars that could have still been alive after Harmony ascended. Secret Histories talked a lot about "connection", and how it plays a big role in investiture, and applying ones soul/spirit. Maybe the events that the man went through in The Pits gave him a connection to Kel. As that's exactly where Kel snapped and awakened his Allomantic abilities, his link to investiture.
