UpLifted he/him Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) Don't have any proof for this theory but just thought I would throw this out there. My theory for Marasi's character is that she will be the last surviving member of Era 2 Mistborn. What envision happening is Wax dying at the end of LM and Marasi being in some way responsible for his demise. She goes off into the roughs and becomes a lawman (law-woman?). But as technology spreads and urbanization reaches the roughs, her positions as a lawperson becomes irrelevant. She ends up going exploring and is never heard from again... Until Era 3 where she shows up and is surprisingly young considering the time lapse. This is because she gets fed up with the backward ways of society and spends a significant amount of time burning or even flaring Nicrosil Cadmium to propel herself into the future. She will act as a guide to at least one of the protagonists in Era 3, maybe even her great-niece/nephew. Again, no proof for this just daydreaming here. Edited January 27, 2017 by UpLifted 3
Nashan’Elin he/him Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 This would be very interesting to see in Era 3. It would be fun to see a slightly older, Roughs-toughened Marasi dealing with whatever is going on in Era 3 *Quick correction, Marasi would be flaring Cadmium, not Nicrosil 2

If anyone there becomes a Worldhopper, it would be Wayne and MeLaan together. But I've never actually considered that...Marasi's curiosity would be so fun to explore, and she'd get in over her head so many times and it would be perfect.

It's her curiosity that makes the idea fun to me! She's part scholar and part adventurer, with enough competency to root for her but not so much that she doesn't make fun mistakes. It would be really fun to see her discover the cosmere and start poking around with the implications. Wax, Wayne, and MeLaan can jump into action and get stuff done. But I think Marasi has been groomed to play a key role in book 4. Wax will pull the trigger in the end, but Marasi will be the one who figures out where he needs to point the gun.

And there's her relationship with Marsh as well. He seemed perfectly okay to give her a book full of secrets. It might be Wax that's Harmony's favourite, but that doesn't mean Marasi won't have her own stories.

And don't forget what Harmony told Wax, about being nice to her because he put her into the constabulary for a reason (etc.). He's been working with Marasi as well, just not speaking directly to her.
