    They didn’t include spelling when I watched it. Or not that I noticed. It sounded like Anna to me. Good to know the spelling!

    Like I said: their past really doesn’t add up at all. We know Marsh snapped young, but the brothers clearly had choices. My guess is they left the noble life when Kell was 16 and Marsh 20, or a minimum of 8 years after their parents should have died. And my best explanation for why Kell makes those two events sound close together is that, even in his own mind, he’s not acknowledging the years he spent as a noble child. Which is in character for him - he’s a rather unreliable narrator. When he doesn’t want to think about something he doesn’t. But it’s not a great answer and there are too many holes. We really need Brandon to give us a timeline of their history.

    Eryn nodded. “Why he do this to you?”

    That must have been a bit of a shock, lol! You hadn’t read Bands of Mourning? If you’re playing in the next round, I hope you’ve read RoW... And you need to RP Breeze’s response to Kell’s question!

    Kelsier shut his eye, his fist clenching, nails biting into his scarred palms. He didn’t look at his old friend. He didn’t know what he’d do if he did. “How could you,” he hissed through clenched teeth. “How could you forget?” (Kell does realize that Breeze kind-of forgot that Vin was his daughter. Which is why Breeze is still alive, btw. But he is upset. (And I think that was a bit more than hitting below the belt, albeit unintentionally. As someone who almost lost a child... Bringing up the fact that your friend has no descendants when their child died is just cruel. And if the latter half of the poem hurt - it’s because I was drawing on personal experience. (The first half was actually written before you posted yours.)

    “Stand still,” Ollivander instructed, pulling out a tape measure. It promptly began measuring Silk as the old man began explaining about how a wand chooses its wizard and that the perfect match is essential.

    Thanks!

    I would think they’d be raised by their grandparents, actually. So still raised in that life, but with only each other to hold the secret. Which would explain a lot about both their natures, really. Also explains the ‘better part of four decades’ that Kelsier says his noble family spent trying to kill him.

    Okay, sure! Thoughts? Opinions?

    “Ah,” the old man said peering keenly at the twins. “It’s been awhile since you were in my shop. Frederick Weasley, Beech wood with a unicorn hair core, 13 ¾" inches. Brittle, but flexible, as I recall. And George Weasley. Spruce wood with a unicorn hair core, from the same beast as your twin’s. 13 ¾” inches. Slightly springy and flexible. I hope you haven’t been causing too much trouble with them,” he added, eyes narrowing before he whipped around to face the other three boys. ”And you three. You aren’t quite what you seem, are you?” Kelsier forced himself to remain relaxed, matching the old man stare for stare. Eventually the shop owner turned away. ”Curious,” the old man murmured. “Curious. So many visitors... Ah, but no matter. Which one of you is first?”

    Eryn nodded, and smiled encouragingly. “When control yours, tell him tell me about man who do this to him.”

    We do know Kelsier is from the Western Dominance. (Crafty games, which we know is canon until the books say otherwise.) We also know his father was a High Noble. Yes, Marsh saw his mother killed. (WoB.) And he was young enough that he hadn’t snapped the regular way. That’s why I thought their father might be an Obligator who found out. Only he ended up killing himself as well as his lover, rather than kill their children. And he was the only Obligator to know... Once they were both old enough the brothers left the noble life. Marsh blamed the Obligators for their father’s actions. Kelsier blamed the system. And so they went their separate ways... You don’t need to go to the Civil War for examples. My blonde haired, blue eyed great-grandmother escaped the Nazis on occasion by passing for ‘Aryan.’ And my grandfather hid his ethnicity at work for years because it wasn’t safe to be Jewish. This isn’t limited to one population during one event centuries ago. People who can pass for the dominant culture have done so for centuries.

    The Alethi languages are Semitic, and were specifically based on Hebrew. So I guess they’d sound Israeli? South Scadrial and portions of North Scadrial sound Germanic. And I imagine the Terris as having Italian accents, because ancient Terris seems kind of like Latin to me?

    “You do realize that I was a god, right?” Kelsier points out. “And, at least according to some opinions, I still kind of am. It depends on how you define a Sliver a godhood.”

    Kelsier chose not to take them up. He considers it, but stops as soon as Elend shows up. It was very much kid and an unwatched cookie jar moment. Like: I know I shouldn’t, and maybe I don’t even really want it, but it’s RIGHT. THERE. Elend showing up just gave him the push he needed to make the choice he knew was right and resist his - very childish - temptation to take the Shards up. But Kell has always been rather immature. You’d never guess he’s forty-one at the end of SH. (My aunt was a grandmother at 38, to put this in perspective.) He acts very much like an over grown child at times.
