Lilamal he/him Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 Who was Decay? He wasn´t quite like the Fell Twins, and he was definitely similar to their father, who we don't know exactly what he is, but is likely a Shard. So what was he? He could be a Shard, a worldhopper, or something else entirely. We don't even know if this is before or after Adonalsium's Shattering, so he could be any number of things we've never even heard of! Theorize away!
Pagerunner he/him Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 Decay was an early version of Ruin, as officially confirmed here by Peter: http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/21542-the-status-of-aether-of-night/. When Brandon was building Mistborn: The Final Empire out pieces of his unpublished works, he took Decay and the war-between-Shards and turned it into Ruin and the conflict with Preservation.
