aeromancer he/him Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) Spook receives instructions somewhere in hero of ages telling him to send Vin the hemalurgy warning that Marsh intercepts, giving Marsh a)the knowledge of the Vin's earring, and b0the way to fight Ruin. Sazed stresses that the message "saved them all". WHO GAVE SPOOK THOSE INSTRUCTIONS? Edited June 17, 2013 by aeromancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Monstrosity Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 This time it was the real one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senor Feesh Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 There is actually word of Brandon on this. There are, I believe, two instances of Kelsier genuinely speaking to Spook. This is possible because Spook genuinely believes in Kelsier as a deity. I would dig up the quote but I'm on mobile. I'm actually surprised Phantom hasn't already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeromancer he/him Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) Kelsier is DEAD. Who resurrected HIM? Edited June 17, 2013 by aeromancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaa he/him Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Hi aeromancer! Brandon wrote annotations for all the chapters of the Mistborn trilogy. Here are a couple that talk about what the real Kelsier (not Ruin in disguise) was doing in Hero of Ages: Mistborn 3 Chapter Fifty-Eight Part 3 (click on the "Show Spoilers" link) Mistborn 3 Chapter Sixty-Four (again, click on the "Show Spoilers" link) There's also this interview with Brandon where he says that Kelsier stayed in the Cognitive realm (a.k.a. Shadesmar) after he died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Monstrosity Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Also this one Reddit This is an awesome answer! If you wouldn't mind answering, does Roshar have a similar problem, with Honor being Splintered? Thanks! No, Roshar does not have the same problem. There are some differences going on. (One reason being that the spren are far more extensive on Roshar, and provide something of a "release valve." The Seons and the Skaze on Sel are not numerous enough to fulfill a similar function. Though, of course, that's only one part of the puzzle. Raw power is dangerous. It's one reason everyone should be thankful Kelsier was around on Scadrial.

aeromancer he/him Posted June 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) And Kelsier also leads Elend to the Terris camp? Edited June 18, 2013 by aeromancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyman he/him Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 And Kelsier also leads Elend to the Terris camp? That was Vin. Basically, between his death and the end of the series (and possibly further; there have been hints), Kelsier is hanging around dead in the cognitive realm. Between the time when Leras died and Vin took the power of preservation, Kelsier was able to take control of it a little bit (not fully like Vin or Sazed did). Thus you can tell if it is the real Kelsier by: (a) is Leras dead? ( is the recipient free of metal? © does the recipient have faith in Kelsier? (d) has Vin/Sazed not ascended? That pretty much leaves Spook for a very brief time in Hero of Ages. It doesn't happen much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
