  1. The line I mentioned is just part of a larger paragraph which is missing ( this just the first part that I found): What proof do we have? The words of men long dead, only now deemed divinatory? Even if we accept the prophecies, only tenuous interpretation links them to me. Is my defense of the Summer Hill really the “Burden by which the Hero shall be dubbed”? My several marriages could give me a “Bloodless bond to the world’s kings,” if you look at it the right way. There are dozens of similar phrases that could refer to events in my life. But, then again, they could all just be coincidences. The philosophers assure me that this is the time, that the signs have been met. But I still wonder if they have the wrong man. So many people depend on me. They say I will hold the future of the entire world on my arms. What would they think if they knew that their champion—the Hero of Ages, their savior—doubted himself? Perhaps they wouldn’t be shocked at all. In a way, this is what worries me most. Maybe, in their hearts, they wonder—just like I do. When they see me, do they see a liar? Rashek seems to think so. I know that I shouldn’t let a simple packman perturb me. However, he is from Terris, where the prophecies originated. If anyone could spot a fraud, would it not be he? Nevertheless, I continue my trek, going where the scribbled auguries proclaim that I will meet my destiny—walking, feeling Rashek’s eyes on my back. Jealous. Mocking. Hating. In the end, I worry that my arrogance shall destroy us all.
  2. Post here because I don't know how to edit the wiki. In the Alendi's journal article, I realized that the wiki only uses the information from The Final Empire's epigraphs and not some of the text from the book. For example, at the start of chapter 21, Kelsier is reading the logbook and a portion of the texts is missing from the wiki. This can also help with the chronological order of the text: "I know that I shouldn't let a simple packman perturb me. However, he is from Terris, where the prophecies originated. If anyone could spot a fraud, would it not be he?" is right after "When they see me, do they see a liar?" which is different from the wiki. So if anyone can check their copy of The Final Empire and edit the wiki, that would be nice.
