Thanks for the reply, man, but I´ll bother you a little more. I´m from Brazil and read the translated version of Mistborn 1st era and I don´t recall any mention of the shards in the books, not with that name. I tried to look some translated words up but came up with nothing. I found some info in the wiki, like that Atium is one of them, but did I miss something? Or did I just ignore them thinking they weren´t important? Or even, do they start being called shards from the Secret History foward?
