Pyromie Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 After a lot of reading and re-reading of questions asked of Brandon in regards to the upcoming Mistborn Third Trilogy, I am getting a strong impression that the "Ones above" mentioned many times in the Sixth of the Dusk are in fact, former inhabitants of Scadrial. What do ya'll think? Sources: http://coppermind.net/wiki/Ones_Above http://coppermind.net/wiki/Scadrial http://coppermind.net/wiki/Mistborn_(series)#Era_4:_Third_Mistborn_Trilogy
Modal Seoul he/him Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 They are either Scadrians or Khriss and her buddies looking for work. 1
+Lewis Nethur He/Him Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 Agreed. One of the Ones Above fakes his death by pretending to choke and suffocate. The simplest way this could be done convincingly is by a feruchemist storing breath. Since the Ones Above are a people we've reportedly seen before, this makes Scadrians the best bet for the time being. As an additional note, the machine The Ones Above use to track the birds sounds a lot like a mechanized form of bronze allomancy... 1

That is true, and we have the hint in the post script about this being the latest story in the cosmere so far.
Weltall Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 Yeah, it's by no means the only possible explanation but it's the most common theory and for all intents and purposes the most plausible given what we know. 1
