Mason Wheeler Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 There's an Allomantic symbol for Lerasium. I have to wonder, how is that possible, when no one seems to actually know about Lerasium, and there's no indication that it was ever around in any great quantities, the way Atium was?
Stick. she/her Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Spoiler Lerasium was used to make Elend Mistborn wasn't it?
Mason Wheeler Posted July 29, 2016 Author Posted July 29, 2016 Sure, but we never see people discussing it the way they discuss the other metals. It seems that the first rule of Lerasium Club is that you don't talk about Lerasium Club!
Radiant Returned he/him Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Just because there is a symbol doesn't mean it has to be well known. It's like the Cosmere symbol.
Yata he/him Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) There are also a symbols for the Malatium and Harmonium but the people has no knowledge of them (or at least post TLR's Ascension). We can't know if the knowledge of Feruchemical Metals was better in the ancient times Edited July 29, 2016 by Yata
Landis963 he/him Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 Also, it's a letter in the Steel Alphabet. If it would be known from anywhere, it would be known from there.

It's not listed here, which is unsurprising as Harmonium is a metal that has never been actually shown to exist in any story I'm aware of.
DeadFencer Posted July 30, 2016 Posted July 30, 2016 The symbol for harmonium was on a badge at a release party for shadows of self. I don't have the link, if someone else does? Also regarding the existence of the Lerasium symbol, Rashek and the people he gave Lerasium to knew of its existence. It's not impossible he had a symbol for it created.

It's not impossible he had a symbol for it created. It was already a letter in the contemporary Terris alphabet (specifically, "A"). I don't think Rashek had to "create" a Lerasium symbol so much as pick one.
