In the Hemalurgy table from the leather-bound Hero of Ages, it's shown that a Lerasium spike "steals all abilities." Given that the Hemalurgy Table is "an in-world chart according to the knowledge of some people at a certain stage in the history of Scadrial," according to Peter Ahlstrom, at some point in Scadrial's history someone must have fashioned a lerasium spike. I don't believe the chart is from MBE1, given the lack of both lerasium and hemalurgic knowledge. Thus, I believe at some point Harmony must have begun again producing lerasium and possibly atium. These metals seem like too powerful a potential weapon against the Set or other enemies for him to ignore, and otherwise it should be impossible for the knowledge of a lerasium hemalurgic spike to become available to the creator of the chart.
