I am he who makes up tests for the King. I grade with honorable standards to cultivate the mind of my pupil and prevent odium. We coexist in harmony and I endow him with the autonomy necessary to devote time to the domination of the material. With his ambition he shall succeed and I will be he who gathers up shards!

So, it was pretty nice to be Wyrn the King. But now I’m a Spinner? 

I.... don’t actually remember what that is? This is a first. I’m stumped.

@Sunbird - went to the coppermind. 

Spinners are lucky. And unlucky. In equal measure. 

Spinners are chromium ferrings. Not gonna lie, being a spinner could be handy.

Hey, Dakhor Monk!... ow, actually, I get painful-torture-bone-growth-sessions in the monastery. 

But hey, I’m the subject of one of my old, popular theories!

It has been shown to me that my essay writing skills are far superior to anything of which I have ever believed myself capable. My elevation to the ruler of this effective, if frustrating, bureaucratic system is unexpected, as I don't remember applying, but perhaps it will allow me time to grow into something grander. I look forward to this time as your ruler. I have always been Prime. I was just unaware of it until this moment.

As in, a few seconds in advance in order to predict your attacks. You foolish would-be murderer.

it's a mistborn term :)  Basically it's someone/something specifically to kill allomancers - I think I can say that without spoiling anything for you if you've not read them

No worries, i've read all the Mistborn stuff! It's a very strange name now that I see it out of context heh. I suppose the haze part implies the mists, and "mistkiller" just didn't sound cool enough or something.

lol. perhaps.  Or maybe since those who killed allomancers don't want to be identified with the mists that give mistborn their name they wanted it different.  Remind me to steer clear of you if/when I rise to some allomancy rank...

Brandon himself isn't too fond of the name, but his writing group loved it, if I remember the annotations correctly. 

Also, I missed I337 :-( Oh well, I can Compound Gold to see my past self, and thus revisit my old rank!
