Scadrian Cold war in the 3 era

[ruler of the mists He/His/the survivor of the pit]

Do you guys think there is going to be a cold war like the Soviet-America in Scadrial,instead the Soviet Union and America it would be the Malwish confedrancy and and the Elendel goverment,with the roughs in the future perhaps.The book would take place during the 1980 in our world time and the cold was still taking place during that period then.

That is certainly a possibility!

Yes, this has been confirmed by Brandon - Era 3 will be set up in the '80s with the cold war between Malwish and the Basin. They already have nukes and the cold war has already started with relations between the Basin and Malwish deteriorating in epilogues of TLM. WoB:

So, there's a couple of things that I need to explain to you guys in this one. First is that Mistborn, I pitched to my editor, way at the beginning, as a series where a fantasy world slowly became a science fiction world. So we would pass through a modern era, where things are like our world, and then we pass on to a science fiction era, because I'd never seen that done before. I'd never seen someone take epic fantasy and then build from the events in the epic fantasy, like religions and philosophies, and then tell another story set in a more modern and contemporary world. And then in the science fiction one, the magic will become the means by which space travel is possible. So we're in the middle of that. Wax and Wayne is an interim, I'm calling it era 2. There's an era 3 which is 1980s, cold war, spy thriller Mistborn. Then there is an era four, which is science fiction, unless I slip in a cyberpunk, near-future science fiction, which I might do. So there might be five, we'll see. I've warned people of that. The last Mistborn series, whichever era it ends up being, is the last thing of the cosmere chronologically. So, it's a long ways off. All the other series have to finish before I can do that.

Yes! With the caveat that I don't anticipate the high-level grand war to actually be the focus of the story so much as merely its backdrop which indirectly explains the tension, anxiety, and general behavior of the wider cast of characters.

So like...I expect travel directly between the two regions to be powerfully limited, artificially inflating the value of our main characters making the journey and creating an imperative for others to support them. I expect there to be war but for it to not really ever go anywhere substantial; basically, i don't believe either side will "win," just like in real war. I believe this backdrop will create the absolute perfect opportunity to compare, contrast, test, sample, and hybridize northern and southern technologies and techniques. The two sides have so little in common that war is inevitable, but only at first!

Lastly, I would offer the prediction that peace between the warring regions (and their warring internal factions for that matter!) To be a requirement for the initiation of era4 and the planet's induction into the interstellar space age. So like...a lot of crazy bs (pun intended) is going to go down.

I mean if the Elendel gets the technology of enkeyed medallions and later a Mistorn they could compuond but the malwish would still be ahead Technologically,man i cant wait for Mistborn era 3

Try playing with the search function in the "Arcanum" section of the forums directory of this site! It's much more of an art than a science. The real world data scientists that I know were absolutely horrified when they realized that people were organizing questions and answers that way (it totally works, just...only for works of literary art; may God have mercy on the person who attempts to cultivate such a system in any other space...)
